Snoozed for the Bulgaria qualifier, 7 Sept, and got caught surprised it has sold out.

Now want 3-4 tickets for a birthday present.

Any ideas?

Do they release more tickets nearer the time (like they did for our ManC semi)?

I am in the same position. Forgot to apply and now all sold out. In my experience a few come up the day before or on the day when people get ill or cannot make it. Do not pay over the odd though.

Can't think of anything worse than listening to that band for 90 minutes

I have four tickets and there is a chance I won't go or use them all, but won't know for a couple of weeks.

Thinking of going up Friday just on the off chance I can tout it outside and if not watch it somewhere near…

Anyone go Saturday and see any touts or know if there’s any potential covid names on ticket issues if I did get a genuine one? Thanks

I’d imagine you’ve got no chance. Given the COVID requirements to produce a negative test result or else a proof of vaccination, I’d have thought that would all be fairly well scrutinised against the name on the ticket.

Are there names on tickets do you know? Couple of mates going so was just tempted to jump in - plenty of places to watch near by if don’t get ticket!

I don’t know with absolute certainty, but I’d be amazed if names weren’t printed on tickets. Especially with the additional Covid-related stuff needed as well.
