I was unsuccessful in the ballot and today the tickets went on sale to anyone unsuccessful in the ballot!! I tried again and just got three.
They are selling out so navigate to here.

What's the point of selling tickets to people who were unsuccessful in the ballot? Surely they should just release more tickets for the ballot? Or am i missing something here?!

 

[Scoffers]

It says I am not eligible to enter this sales period. Why the hell not?!

That happened to me earlier this week.

But today, I was allowed to purchase, no idea why

It's Croatia by the way, not Craotia!! They appear to still be on sale even now.

I was successful in the ballot but can no longer attend so didn't get my ticket, I'm guessing a lot of the ones available now are because of this.

 

[BIRCHYBOY27]

I was unsuccesfull in the ballot, but had an email saying we could get more, and have now got them.
I expect whats happens is that you can apply months in advance for tickets, but when it comes to buy them people cannot go for some reason.

I did it for Estonia applied about 4 months before was succesfull then my mate organised his 30th bday do for that wknd so we didnt take up the tickets

Can't tell you how grateful I am for letting us know this. Not only can I now take my two boys to the new wembley to see a match I got my flights for 6c all in.

Thank you soooo much

Happy days

People enter a ballot, and if they are successful they are then ABLE to buy tickets.

However, many of the 'winners' don't buy tickets, so there a lots left over.

Or you just join Englandfans, are guaranteed a ticket for home games and get the tickets £5 cheaper than the rest have to pay.

Or that.

But that has nothing to do with the question.

Well it does, in so much they you do not have the hassle of all this ballot stuff.

I suppose.

You go to away games don't you? Am i right in thinking you need to be a member of 'englandfans+' to apply for away tickets? Does that include home games as well? And how much does that cost? Think i read somewhere that the next application period is after the Euro's, so it's not for a while yet, but it's worth thinking about?

Englandfans+ does cover home and away games. The last membership period cost £70 (I think), so you can make a fair bit of that back on the fact we get discounts to home games.

Cheers, sounds pretty reasonably really - saves all this fannying about, lets you do away games, and saves money on wembley tickets. Might consider that
