Draw for Slovakia and Czech Tickets?

**onenilgameover** · 12/07/2007, 10:00 PM

Anyone know when the FAI are doing the Block Booking draw? I rang up but I put the phone down with more questions then anwsers....

**NeilMcD** · 13/07/2007, 9:17 AM

I was told in the next 2 weeks. Whether its its a draw is questionable.

You would think there would be a computerised system in place where you could apply online for tickets or find results of ballots. instead on them sending you out an application form and you sending it back, then if successful them sending you a ticket invoice and you sending it back and then them sending you the tickets. Its a bit of a joke but what would you expect its the fai.

The FAI are the most fantastic, professional and fair organisation in the World

I'm hoping someone from the FAI reads this and promptly moves my name
to the top of the allocation "draw"

All who applied for slovakia tickets are going to get them, announced today, the FAI received and extra allocation of 3,500 tickets (i think thats the amount )

Your dead right there sure look they got an extra allcocation of 3,500 tickets for the Slovakia match even though there'll probably be 10,000 seats empty!

You cant knock them for that they did well to get more than we were initially given. Hopefullly they can do the same for prague.

We werent initally given the amount of tickets they stated. We were just intitled to 10% but we were always going to get more hence them sending out applications to get numbers

Credit where its due, i cant fault them either. I just wish they'd introduce a loyality system. They were happy to take my money when flogging tickets for the San Marino game and Denmark in August but they didnt want to know when i was looking for tickets for the two games in Sept, as im not a block booker. Obviously i understand thier position but i think a loyality system when applying for tickets for the more attractive games isnt an unfair request.

I have dealt with the ticket office on a good few occasions down the years and they have always been helpful.
I just think there should be a system in place instead of all this sending back and forth. Take the application I received yesterday, all they needed was my credit card number for the slovakia tickets, surely in this day and age I could log onto their website to apply and pay for tickets.

Believe the FAI got 6000 tickets for Bratislava, whilst only 2000 or so for Prague, though they are trying to get more.

Hope you remember to take yourself off the Slovakia ticket waiting list

**Ash** · 19/07/2007, 12:04 PM

People who block book through the District Leagues etc have
already been notified of their allocation for the Czech game.
