Ticket Allocation at top Football Matches

Riviera · Post by **Riviera** » Wed May 17, 2006 5:00 pm

anyone else hear on ITV that Arsenal and Barca were both given 21,000 tickets for the final, then UEFA had 10,000, but why the fook did the French FA get 14,000 tickets for?

i heard somewhere that Hampden Park is hosting a European final next season, that only holds 48,000 or so, if 2 very big teams get to the final and the same percentage of allocation is done there are gunna be very few fans of the opposing teams

The French FA,as would the England FA if playing at the new Wembley,be granted what they call a corporate allocation of major final tickets.Like politics,football has it sweeteners too!! Barca are a massive club,80,000 plus for their home games,thus being allocated more tickets than Arsenals 42,000 adverage gate!!! It may not appear fair at times but the defination of fair has moved an awfull long way in football terms as of late!

LnP, my point is why the fook should the host nation get tickets? they make millions from hosting it in the 1st place

Come on Riv, if you were hosting the CL final in your back garden wouldn't you expect to be able to give a few tickets to your mates ?
