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: Graeme Le Saux: adaptability and focus will be key on the Manaus pitch

    I’ve played on some shocking pitches in my time – I remember playing for Chelsea in ‘the battle of Stamford Beach’ against Charlton back in 2003 and the condition of the surface can often play into your favour if you’re the home side. There may be a slight advantage for the South and Central American sides, but for England against Italy it is a level playing field – pardon the pun...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Italy’s tropical trials could lend a hand to England

    A few days ago I was on the Rio underground when someone came up to me to give me his World Cup predictions. He recognised me from my appearances on Brazilian TV, and he wanted to tell me that there were two teams that were going to spring a surprise in the World Cup: France, and England. Many in Brazil lost patience with England after South Africa 2010. The feeling over here before that tournament was that England...

    blogs: David Stone: Not even the mighty Amazon can hold us back

    I've been back in England for a few days now and had the chance to reflect on what was yet another cracking away trip with the Three Lions. The Honduras game, as many predicted, was a very tough affair with the referee offering England limited protection against some rather nasty tackles. The result, while disappointing, did not particularly matter to be honest. It was far more important that England had a good...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Protests vie with World Cup feelgood for centre stage in Brazil

    Last Sunday I commentated on the match between Italy and Brazilian club side Fluminense, staged in Volta Redonda, a hundred miles or so outside Rio. The match kicked off at 5.30pm in the afternoon. I arrived at the ground six hours earlier - and already there were plenty of supporters gathering. Many of them were Fluminense fans. Others had Italian affiliations. But lots had come (and at the equivalent of nearly £30...
