Finally got my email about Marseille tickets, nervous wait until Monday.

I was expecting this thread to be lit up, is it being discussed on a new thread.

Contrast with last night, when I cheered Dunky's chest pass, my daughter laughed at me and I said there would be at least two posts on NSC already about it: there were three by the time I refreshed.

Can someone explain the Category One tickets to me?

It sounds like the club got above the amount required but the additional tickets are just in the home end? Incredibly tight security on all other tickets and then a free-for-all for the additions? Madness

In UEFA competitions, home clubs have to give some "top tier" tickets to the visiting club for their partners etc. We'll have to do the same with tickets at the Amex, probably 1901, although I think I've read reference to the club possibly trying to see if they could allocate different tickets for this.

It was the West Ham Category One ticket holders that were attacked last season, when that big lad just batted away the invaders.

I'm feeling decidedly giddy, anyone else?

We've booked with flexibus. Just over £9 each way.
Looks like we will have 45 mins to pick up the tickets once the bus arrives! 30 mins walk from station to la joliette or 10 min taxi

Sorry tell a lie we will have an hour. So should be all good

What are my chances of getting 1 in my Tuesday 9am bracket? I'm hoping quite a few will be put off by the security fears, cost and late notice

Surprised we have to remain around the La Joliette- it’s not a nice area- run down, theft, drugs, prozzies after dark. Think Croydon but ten times worse 😂

I'm in tier 1 but....

Fans in the first two windows are guaranteed tickets,

So how many tickets have we received ?

On the graphic of the stadium map on the travel guide, it reads
3,539 visiting fans area

Don't know if this is actually our allocation

I just did a quick tour via Google street map and it doesn't look the best of areas to be spending a pre-match afternoon.
