    as far as I know there's another batch of tickets going on sale August 1, which I think is a lottery.
    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    These are for matches that are not sold out, and as we don't know where Ireland will play IF we qualify you would be guessing which tckets to buy........

    Yes it would be potluck to buy these tickets but you might get lucky or may have decent tickets to swop eg England, Germany or Holland.

    There is still hope yet!!!!, The FA's of competing nations in euro04 will be getting an allocation of tickets directly, but this won't be until Nov03 when all qulaifying games are completed.

    true, I got a ticket for the UEFA cup final in Seville (ducks for cover....) by getting a CL final one at Old Trafford via the uefa.com ballot and then getting a swap with a guy from another forum.

    Probably shouldn't get into this but what the hell...

    I can't believe you went to the UEFA cup final over the Champions League final!
    Champions!

    no problem with somebody being a Celtic fan unless he feels compelled to use racial or sectarian abuse at opposing players.


    I agree that Seville is a lot more attractive than Manchester and I imagine it was some party there as the vast majority of Celtic fans are not lunatic sectarian bigots but I'd still choose the Champions League final any day unless the UEFA final next year is Shels v Derry.

    It appears to me that the 'anti Celtic' posters on this forum are far more obsessed with bringing Celtic into discussions than the Celtic fans are, wasn't this thread about Euro04 tickets?

    For the record, In my opinion the 3-2, extra time game in Seville, with glorious sunshine and estimates 70k Celtic fans enjoying the occasion was a far greater spectacle that the dire CL final at Old Trafford.

    For jaysus sake, the man was talking about Euro2004 tickets, he happened to mention how he got UEFA Cup final tickets, and a few jumped in with the anti-Celtic posts again.

    Just looking at some of the posts on this site, there seems to be a group of posters who use every opportunity they can get to get in a dig at Celtic.
    What has the club done to them?
    I have no particular interest in any other club besides City, but cannot understand this ott attitude against Celtic.

    I'm perfectly willing to discuss the celtic issue, but there are some people who's hatred/dislike of celtic has reached obsessive levels

    obviously I didn't, I was talking with hindsight.

    I actually had a ticket for the UEFA cup myself, but a friend didn't. I swapped the 2 tickets I had for the CL for 1 UEFA ticket plus face value for the other, so that my mate had a ticket for Seville.

    As a football fan, I would have loved to have gone to the CL final as well (particularly as OT is about 3 miles from where I live!), but I was prepared to forfeit the chance, and I can't say I was to disappointed when it ended up being a crap final!!

    Anyway back to Euro04, anyone not get a rejection from UEFA?

    2 colleagues are probably getting tickets as they haven't received rejections.

    My sister is currently on holiday and I'm hoping she gets 2 as one will be mine. If not then it's the F.A.I. if we make it.

    I reckon the rejections levels are 80-90% for Irish fans. Far more applications than I expected at this stage.

    Will be interesting to see the figures.

    Haven't heard of anyone getting a letter yet to confirm tickets so the people without e-mails must be sweating that they filled int he forms correctly - but on balance if you didn't get an e-mail you're getting tickets.

    Happy days then Gary

    I haven't had an e-mail as yet so hopefully that is a good sign

    Lots of accounts of people who made multiple applications with different cc's and address having all their entries withdrawn
    Tifo poles, sausage rolls and a few goals.

    Got my confirmation yesterday. I applied for Cat.3 and got Cat.1 which is quite a difference in price, but hey, no complaints please: I'm simply overjoyed. If you haven't received a red card yet, I'd say you could be in luck.

    In addition, I would like to thank those eejits that left all that anti-Celtic cojones on this thread...NOT. Sorry KIDS, but could you please leave your MIERDA on the countless other threads that litter this site for your SPECIAL NEEDS. This thread is for Euro 2004...you know...international football, countries, Henri Delauni cup.

    A special muchas gracias has to go to the contribution from the Amadam who thinks Manchester p!sses on Seville. You made my day, Hombre. Either you have never been to both cities (so as you can make a valued comparison) or Manchester is the only other place on earth you've ever visited. But then there is simply no accounting for taste when it's the home of the 'theatre of dreams.'
    This is the cooooooooooooolest footy forum I've ever seen!
