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.

    News: Pop-up party a great success!

    Jon Widdows from Chingford in Essex won a pop-up party at his house for the England v Costa Rica game on Tuesday, and said it was “one of the best Tuesdays ever!” He was able to invite 10 friends to his house for a party thrown by us, and...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Let’s hope England can bounce back like Brentford

    As a Brentford fan I’m used to suffering disappointments and England need to summon the spirit of the Bees to bounce back stronger than ever. The season before last we missed out twice on promotion from League One – on the last day of the season and in the play-off final – and I know all the players said they didn’t want to go through that again. This time round we came second to go up automatically...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: No shortage of memories despite the disappointment

    There we were at the stadium in Sao Paulo, instruments in hand with 10 minutes to go until England kicked off against Uruguay – it was do-or-die time for the team and we’d been waiting for an hour to hear if they were going to let us play inside. Suddenly stadium officials came to us and told us we couldn’t take the instruments in – that’s when the panic set in. We couldn’t miss the...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Costa Rica will be a platform for performance

    I was actually live on air the moment England’s exit from the World Cup was confirmed and it was a very odd few minutes. As a reporter you usually thrive on breaking news but this was so disappointing, so deflating for the nation that I almost...

    blogs: Mark Wright: Fresh blood for three points?

    As an England fan I’m trying to stay as positive as I can, but it’s difficult in this situation! I was at the Uruguay game and the atmosphere was incredible, even though the result wasn’t good at all. Roy Hodgson has made changes for the Costa Rica game and it’s time for some of the squad players to come in and show us what they can do. There’s no point playing the same guys who lost the...
