UCL Final - Ticket Criteria>

Post by frankbutcher »

Quick question - (Not tempting fate by touching a wooden table as i write this...)

IF we were to get to the Champions League Final, how do you think the club would allocate tickets? I know that for Paris it was mainly by ballot, but do you think there would be a level of away credits that would guarantee you a ticket?

Away scheme members would be sorted, but what about the rest of us.

Thoughts..?

Can't see it mate. 3+ credits got you a ticket for the Semi. Arsenal will not want to piss off the prawn sandwich brigade, who all fancy a trip to Madrid.

I think it should be 25+, but that's probably because that would be good for me!

This is a long way off but when big games arrive it is going to get messy with an awful lot of heartbreak for many loyal fans.
Be prepared people...

I agree that it's academic, but each finalist will get 21,000 tickets. For the Wembley Semi we got at least 30,000 (32,000?)

Whatever the club decide, it will be messy. I also remember that in Paris, the club kept back c. 1000 tickets for staff / friends of the club....

As a silver member, I've accpeted I've probably got no chance for getting Tix 'if' we happened to get to the final, but you could always do what I did and register with uefa for CL final tickets via the uefa CL final lottery and keep your fingers crossed!! :D

worst thing that could happen is you don't get chosen and you don't get tickets you never had in the first place, where as if you are lucky, you get tickets for the Champions League Final!!

For those who don't know, the tickets you win aren't free!! You simply get chosen by ballot after you've chosen desired seats leaving uefa with your credit/debit card details.
If you win, your card gets debited and you automatically receive your tickets in the post!! 8)

The criteria will be away scheme, then it will be season ticket holders with the most credits, it will not go any further than that. So people just with away credits wont have a chance in hell.

You said it. Anyone who saw Messi tonight will know that if he plays against us, the chances of us winning are slim to none.
