In the initial ticket ballot, there was quite a few NSCers who got lucky with tickets. What matches did everyone end up with? Ive bagged a couple for Switzerland v Albania in Lens
Got tickets for all 4 Quarter Finals, although will probably sell the two for Marseille and Nice as I fancy England to come first or second in the group and can't afford all 4 games.
I'm going to Match 38 (Round of 16 in Paris) which could be England if they win the group (unlikely) and Match 45 (Quarter Final in Marseille) which could be England if they finish as one of the best 3rd place teams (more likely) and get through to the Quarters (unlikely)
Was interested to see on the UEFA site that the 'team specific' tickets that go on sale next, have a requirement for the England tickets that you are a member of the England Fans Club. Not sure if this has applied previously, my last experience was 2002 when I got tickets to follow the England games and then followed Brazil to the final, at that time there was no such requirement. I know people think in general that you do need to be in the fans club, but I thought tickets from the FIFA and UEFA tickets didn't require this. I know the hand club used to get their own allocation..
Germany v Poland, and Ireland v Sweden. I didn't realise quite how good the Poland fans were until that match at Wembley a couple of years ago when they had about 25,000 fans. Never seen an atmosphere like that when England were playing at home.
Guaranteed tickets for all the England games as in the top 1,700 of the membership scheme. Just booked train tickets for Marseille, will do the same for St Etienne and probably drive to Lens. Will try to pick up some tickets for other games once out there, should be plenty of opportunities with the number of matches taking place and the relatively small fan base of some of the participants.
