EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

The ESTC Team

Not one to start conversations or post soppy stuff.

But just wanted to say a huge thanks personally and from everyone else to the staff who have been working morning, noon and night to sort tickets, run ballots, keep us in contact through email, taking calls and trying secure additional tickets non stop over the Tournament.

You’ve probably had a thousand moany calls and emails, but you’ve all smashed it!

    I completely agree with what Stephen Madden says. I have been hugely impressed with the quality of the comprehensive News & Announcements bulletins. It's also apparent from reading the posts on this forum that Team England have been busting a gut on the phone line to help fans with their problems. And, of course, there are the extra tickets which have been secured.

    I do hope that it becomes known to the FA hierarchy what a blinder Team England have played.

    Agree! managed to get a ticket for the SF which was unexpected given my caps number. I had tickets for all group games plus SF & Final originally but opted for a refund (BIG mistake) so massive thanks to EF for securing more tickets for the SF which was a day to remember.

    Unsurprisingly I didn't get one for the final but I'm only 19 so plenty of time to build up my caps for future campaigns

    COME ON ENGLAND and thanks again ESTC

    Completely agree Stephen.

    The team have been amazing! We have had a couple of problems with our tickets during the tournament, but they have always been helpful and professional throughout.

    Many people will be disappointed and frustrated at not getting tickets to matches they really wanted to attend and understandably so. But you just have to remember, its not the ESTC teams fault. If they could get enough tickets for all members they would!

    Sterling work by all!!!!

    Absolutely Stephen.

    They've played a blinder match after match in unprecedented times. Having to make some tough but fair calls.

    This is compounded by having a very small team so the workload, pressure and long hours will all be on just a few sets of shoulders.

    I hope they're able to look around them and enjoy tomorrow knowing how much happiness they've brought to so many.

    Hopefully it'll remain long in members memories next time, some, are too keen to criticise.

    I'd also like to say the caps system is still very much fit for purpose with recent loyalty paying dividends but also giving newer members a chance too.

    Little wonder over 1000 members have joined us in the last couple of days on their own England journeys.

    C'mon England.

    Can I just add my thanks. The ESTC team have been fantastic. Communication has been clear and swift and they have performed miracles in getting extra tickets.

    In reply to Brian Crofts:

    I would like to add my thanks to ESTC and also David Lilley for their organisation and help!

    As a suggestion, I would like to see a return of the Gold (away) and Silver (home) ETSC / ESC memberships.

    In the (mostly) fabulous tournament we have all witnessed and been part of, if nothing else, it has shown us that loyalty should be rewarded.

    Although I rarely venture outside these shores, I salute those who follow England abroad. You, rightly IMO, should always get first refusal for tickets. Loyal (home) fans should be a close second!

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: Youth or experience for second Miami test?

    The game against Honduras tonight is the final chance for a player to stake their claim for that World Cup opener against Italy next Saturday, and warm-up matches are key - just look at Michael Owen at France 98. The build-up to this tournament and that one 16 years ago is similar in many ways because there was a lot of experience in that England squad that I played in, and Michael really burst onto the scene. It was...

    blogs: David Stone: Marvellous Miami is just like I pictured it

    I've been to the US a few times before, but Miami really lives up to every cultural stereotype you can think of. It's big, bright and brash, not to mention full of hordes of identically-dressed, beautiful people. I’ve been to watch the Miami Marlins, the city's baseball team, in a local derby against the Tampa Bay Rays. While the stadium itself was two-thirds empty, the dozen or so England fans there...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Honduras and Professor Suarez lie in wait for Hodgson's hopefuls

    The fitness of the Uruguay striker permitting, England have a date with Luis Suarez on 19 June. First, though, comes an encounter with his namesake on Saturday. Honduras are coached by Luis Fernando Suarez – a man who England fans have cause to...
