Yeah I have received the same "Dear John" letters for both matches!
I got the same for both games even though I am a block booker.
It wouldn't be the case that eircom League block bookers are treated as less important than others on the list, would itSurely the FAI wouldn't do something like that...?

I think everybody will get this letter whether they are a block booker or not as a point of info. If you are not a block booker dont expect a form and if you are , do a expect a form is the way I would read it.

I sent an e-mail a couple of weeks ago stating that I was a block booker through ShelbourneFC and if I would also get preference,, and they replied saying that only block-bookers directly through the FAI shall get preference. Not looking good!!!!
Just sent an e-mail complaining about this, won't make any difference, will it?

San Marino are going to be a handful as the group goes on." - Steve Staunton reacts to performance against San Marino.
From that can we take it that the game looks likely to be in Bratislava not Trnava ?
I wouldn't take anything from that tbh. They probably know as much as us as to where the game will be.
Anyone know the name of the scouse printer who organised the "extra" tickets for Athens?
well those near the top of the fai waiting list who took tickets for croke park (i'm at about 1,000 on the waiting list) aren't being offered the chance to apply for tickets. i reckon there should be no bother getting in the home end though.Originally Posted by Jerry The Saint

How do you find out where you are on the list?
Just mail them with your details and they will tell ya what number you are

Lets hope to god the game is not in Trnava. They have a very nasty ultras group who will cause trouble. Do not sit in the home end if we play there.
I really dont think the fact the we might outnumber the Slovaks is gonna help you when it comes to trouble. I cant really see Dolly and Dicky who travelled with Abbey travel digging in to save your ass, can you. The police over there will probably knock the hell out of you also.
Bratislava aint much better from what I have heard. All in all, I think this is an away game at which we should all be in the away end only.
On tickets. I honestly, dont know what to do. I am a BB and am submitting an application but expect nothing from the FAI as the travel agents are obviously going to get most of the tickets in our end (even though the dont get the from the FAI of course). They are selling their packages with guaranteed irish section tickets already.
Does anyone know whether there was any trouble at recent home matches?
i know there was serious ructions when they played england a while back...just have to wait and see i guess

I've never seen anything but good reports from Celtic fans that went to Bratislava a couple of years ago. No trouble, cheap drink, nice girls...
Well that's not really "news".
that's because they consider the english hooligans to be the top dog hoolies in europe and wanted to test themselves. it's the kind of place where if you want trouble you can get it but if you keep your head down you should be grand.
Sounds good to me. Lets face it, there's going to be a lot of people going over without tickets, (probably myself included) and we'll have to try and get tickets for the home end if necessary. What are the other options? Watch in a bar? I think the FAI should consider giving some priority to the fans who go to all the away games and who aren't BBers as well. Giving tickets to BBers makes sense but it makes me sick seeing so many sponsors and travel agents getting so many. The prices of some of the package holidays are an absolute joke and at the end of the day, the FAI have a responsibility to show some loyalty to us as well
yeah I said before they should have a seperate list for away games and home games. I am going to take a ticket in the home or away end, I dont care. I think we are a totally different type of supporter than the Engerland fans.
