EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Semi-Final / Final dilemma

Probably one of many posts like this today and in the next few days...

I've got down to the semi-final / final part of the application and am pondering my choices.

I've ticked that I'm willing to go up a category. For these two games the lowest category is Fans First so I assume going up one is to go into category 3.

I'm on 22 caps and according to the latest figures there are 4456 people on 22 caps or above. I've read that half the allocation of tickets per game will be in the lowest category, although for these two games I suspect that means category 3 with a proportion of those offered as Fans First. If that is correct and tickets are allocated by category choice based on your number of caps then I should be okay. If it isn't am I better off ignoring the Fans First option and going for category 3 with a willingness to move to category 2?

When did life get so complicated!

    Fans first ARE only available for the Semi and Final.

    With the caps you are on its dofficult to know which category to go for without some more Ticket Cat allocation news.

    My guess is that I will be fine then no one can over take me now and should be more tickets than people in front of me is that right I realise you don’t want to give advise me it’s my decision but are there any other scenarios to consider

    That's a logical line of reasoning.

    I wouldn’t waste time agonising about it, as although we all hope England make the final, the odds are we won’t.

    blogs: Tim Vickery: A World Cup in every sense

    Two World Cup Finals are being replayed in this week’s 2014 semi finals. The Germans seek revenge for their 2-0 defeat in 2002 when they meet Brazil – amazingly only the second time these giants have ever met in the tournament. And Holland were the closest – so far – a European team has ever come to winning the World Cup in South America when they hit the post with almost the last kick of normal...

    blogs: Sue Smith: England can bounce back

    There’s no doubt England can bounce back – the women’s team did it after the 2007 World Cup by going all the way in Euro 2009. Although we lost against Germany in the final of those Euros, there was a sense of achievement and progress...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: Cool-hand Luke can handle price-tag

    Having a hefty price tag can weight heavy on your shoulders – it certainly did for me when I moved back to Chelsea in 1997 for £5.5m. At the time I was the most expensive English defender and there was a lot of pressure that came with that. I found it quite hard and Luke Shaw now finds himself in a similar position after moving to Manchester United for £30m. It does make you look at things differently...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: It’s time to give England’s players a break

    There’s no doubt England’s players will be disappointed with the way things panned out in Brazil, but they deserve a break after the mentally exhausting season they have all had. They’ll feel like they are coming home prematurely because going into these tournaments you always think that you’re good enough to progress, so to lose their first two games and be out of the World Cup this early will...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: Fresh faces give us cause for hope

    In my years following England I’ve seen some great players come and go – and teams rise and fall. I can say with pride that I saw every game David Beckham played for England and I have also been privileged enough to have seen all of Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard’s appearances. Watching the Costa Rica match it was hard to think that it might be both of their final appearances. I remember Gerrard...
