Booking forms for up-coming friendlies

**TheJamaicanP.M.** · 28/10/2004, 12:45 PM

I was just wondering if any block-bookers have received booking forms for the up-coming Ireland friendlies?

I haven't received my own just yet, but I know some people who have received their's yesterday.

The form covers the next two games - Croatia and Portugal - in the friendlies. Block bookers have to purchase the tickets for these games, otherwise you lose your block booking for the rest of the games.

Having said that, there should be plently of tickets around, as the terraces will be open behind each goal. Like in the past, I'm sure the FAI will put these tickets on sale through ticketmaster.

Yeah I got the form a couple of days ago.

Yep, I got mine the other day.
Should be handy to pick up a few for the Croatia
game, hard to know with the Portugal match!

Anyone on the waiting list received one yet?

I'm on the blockbooking list but will be away for both games - do i have to buy these or will i miss out if i do?

you will have to buy them or you lose out for the remaining games.

I would buy them as it says you will lose your allocation on the form

You should definitly buy them or else you might miss out on games against France and Switzerland. Got my tickets for the friendlies booked today. One of the hotties in the ticket office sorted it out for me.

I doubt waiting list people will get tickets for either of these matches - not the French match because it's France and since the group is tight, the last game against the Swiss might require us to get a result, hence a guaranteed sellout…

According to the FAI, those people on the waiting list will get forms for the upcoming two friendlies in the next couple of days. Apparently there was a problem with the printers, hence the delay.

Yes, I sincerely doubt we will get tickets to either of those games, but am still hoping against hope. Hopefully we will get tickets for the Israel game though.

Bunch of clowns - problem with the printers - is that a new excuse or have they just emplyed someone from Iarnrod Eireann?

Just checked my account this morning, E60 has been debited without my consent - I presume that means I am getting two bucket seat tickets for the Croatia friendly, but surely they shouldn't be doing that without contacting individuals first? Highly unlikely that they'll do the same for the French and Swiss matches, is it? Can't do anything or they can just threaten loss of placing on the waiting list... damn cheeky though!

Well, they never charged me for my Faroe Islands tickets, so I guess they were on Fran!

However, they charged my card as well today, so i'm hoping it is for the upcoming croatia game, and not the previous Faroes game. They took €60 from it, which suggests it's the payment for the Faroes game, as there are no bucket seats for friendlies. It should be €40 for 2 tickets for a friendly, or have they increased this? Will there be bucket seats for the Croatia game?

**TheJamaicanP.M.** · 02/11/2004, 6:51 PM

Don't think there's bucket seats for the Croatia game. They told me that the East Terrace wont have bucket seats for the game. Strange, seeing that the bucket seats have been in place in Lansdowne since before the game against Cyprus.
