Waiting Lister. Applied for seven, got seven. e42. I haven't been away since Wales last time out as well as San Marino but I let the FAI know that I was also applying with other people who are block bookers who had been to Montenegro and Cyprus this time.Originally Posted by EastTerracer

Waiting Lister, applied for 5 and got 5. Been to 2 away games this campaign and 4 the previous. Never applied for tickets directly for these, a BBer always got them. He always included my name on the application however. I would say this was vital in me getting tickets so if anyone is buying tickets off someone, try and get them to include your name on the application. Originally Posted by EastTerracer

I agree with this. I let the FAI know that all seven of the people I was applying for were waiting listers and regular croke park attendees, as well as that we had received a total of 14 tickets to a total of 4 away games in the last two campaigns combined. I'd like to think it made a difference. Originally Posted by Slim Pickings

On the waiting list for about 5 years and applied for 4 tickets and got none. Was in Bari but doesn't look like it made any difference

Got my rejection email... Damn it!!

I still haven't received any response yet. I applied for 6, was a BBer in the last campaign but only been to GEO away this time out.
I bought tickets on the French side but would prefer to be in with the BIG and will obviously make any spares available at cost price...The Germans are disputing it. Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics, Marx is claiming it was offside. -
I've also had no response, was going to give the ticket office a ring but couldn't find a number for them and then they're probably closed for the weekend. Originally Posted by spin

Let's hope so, though it seems a little strange. Maybe they're waiting to see how many of the ones offered are turned down by people who "doubled up" their applications, and will then put those tickets back on offer to us? Originally Posted by JGKyne

They aint closed today i emailed and got a response. they must be working overtime this weekend!! they also mentioned that they would be DHLing my tickets to england like the last time.
I know that galah is a waiting lister around 900 who gets all home tickets and has been to all away games this campaign as well.I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away -
No response yet either.
The ppl in the ticket office seemed to work late on friday and probably agreed to finish the emails on monday.
With 17000 tickets applied for, thats probably a few thousand ppl to email. And every successful applicant gets their own unique booking number so that just makes the process longer.
But we should hear by lunchtime on monday, if not one of us shud ring them.
I dont hold out much hope anyway, only got to the italy game in bari.
But gonna make it into stade de france one way or another! -
Block Booker. Applied for three and got email confirming three.

Galah seems to be the only WL above who didn't get tickets for Paris. Did he get his away tickets directly from the FAI?
It's pretty clear the importance of getting your own name on the FAI records for both home and away games.
I was a block-booker back in 94 and didn't get any tickets for the world cup finals from the FAI probably because i had no away record other than Italia 90 (mainly because I didn't have the resources back then to travel). As I've been to many more away games since then I have generally been successful with the FAI. I can understand the frustration of those who haven't got them yet but keep the faith - I have no doubt you will all get into the Stade de France."There's man all over for you, blaming on his boots the fault of his feet" - Samuel Beckett, Waiting for Godot -
Waiting lister and been to 3 away this campaign but got my rejection email. Seems to be a fairly random draw if there are people who have been to every game and didn't get anything.
Holding out some slight hope that maybe a lot of people doubled/tripled their applications to make sure and that there might be another release of tickets if some of these are not taken up. -
I emailed them yesterday afternoon just asking could they confirm that they received an application from me, as I had no word about being succesfull or not for the away game. This morning I got an email off them saying that due to the high volume of mail they wont be replying and to just check the site for more details Originally Posted by paul_oshea
