ChippenhamRed Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 So my research shows me it would be difficult for us to transfer the tickets to us without himself attending. One of the attendees has to be the person who bought the tickets, so one person would need to pretend to be the purchaser. Chances are they wouldn’t check, but with €240 euros at stake and a 9 year old by my side, that’s not a chance I want to take! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I meant the random people on twitter selling tickets! With regard to my friend that’s not a bad shout, but problem is one of the tickets has to be in his name. I would have a 9 year old with me so I’m very reluctant to take any chances, plus it’s an awful lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is England Travel Club tickets cannot be passed on, whereas those bought via the UEFA ballots can be. So first question for @ChippenhamRed is where the friend sourced them, if ETC then a non-starter. 9 hours ago, ChippenhamRed said: No I meant the random people on twitter selling tickets!

I have been to various World Cups and Euros, and used tickets with a variety of names on: at no game has there been any attempt to link a name on a ticket to any form of ID. This includes Russia where everyone had a photo fan ID as a condition of entry. So odds are you should be good. The caveat is that this has never involved app based tickets. That said, it would be carnage at the turnstiles if there were ID checks versus scan of an app barcode and in you go. Gut feel is you would be OK, but clearly you need to decide what works best.

My friend bought in the ballot. My research tells me that the mobile tickets require the purchaser to be one of the group, with each ticket named. So I would have to have his ticket on my phone - which I’m not sure is possible - and use his name for entry. I realise I would probably get away with this, but it’s a big gamble with €240 and the thought of being refused entry with my football-mad 9 year old son with me is just awful!

One Team In Keynsham Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 For anyone still looking for tickets, a new sales window is now open. Looks like there is availability for 2 of the 3 England group games (although by the time you have waited to access, it may be a different story): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devoncider Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Managed to get x2 for England's second group game on the Friday night (could be vs Scotland!) - just the £150 each England in a major tournament, at Wembley can't complain really. Let's hope its versus the Scots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Exile Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Done over by UEFA on the England v Czech match - 2 hour wait in the queue got the ticket and then they declined my payment! Called the bank etc...UEFA system problem not them...back in the queue but pretty sure they've all gone now. We got lucky in other draws but seriously unimpressed today!

Norn Iron Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Just got to the ticket portal. Nothing left at Wembley for England games. I could've bought Italy vs Wales in Rome for €50. Plenty of tickets available in Bucharest and Baku. The drop down pop-up of tickets left at all venues was never updated. That is the annoying bit.

Selred Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Can anyone understand the changes made, outlined in the email today? We will get refunds if games are cancelled, played behind closed doors or reduced attendance. We won't get refunds if we can't go, which is normally the case if you were ill anyway. Is that it?

Never to the dark side Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 EUFA are to make a decision on what to do on Friday 5th March. Which is the day before we due to play QPR at home So what would you think the best thing to do. Bring all the games to England although their might be a chance that fans MIGHT be allowed in. Downside for the country as a whole is that Covid COULD be brought into the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC1512 Posted January 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 I think all games will end up in England with reduced capacity.

Further complication? Or a massive hit? Either way it was worth the gamble. For the boy. Was there in 96 behind the Gazza goal, watching it all unfold. McAllister. Hendry. Back of the net.
