Applied for the opening game, one of the Semi Finals and the Final on Category 1 - unsuccessful for all of them.
This tournament is going to be massively over-subscribed. Unlike Qatar, where I applied for 18 games and got all 18 (ended up going to 15 and selling the other 3).
I should be able to get tickets for England games in the larger stadiums. After this Friday I’ll be on 25 caps - but even then that’s not guaranteed if we play somewhere like Düsseldorf or Leipzig.
First major tournament in eight years entirely within a recognisable footballing country. Two World Cups in Russia and Qatar with a continent wide Euros in between that was heavily crowd restricted anyway. Would love to see the numbers for how many people applied for tickets for this.
Ten of us put in applications for multiple matches. All completely unsuccessful. If it was that oversubscribed you’d have thought being successful in the ballot for one match should then rule you out for others. You’re v lucky @follett.
Somehow managed to get the final, a semi and a group game in Dortmund. If only England could go all the way..
There's seems to be people with numerous most in demand tickets and people with naff all for the groups.
Yep four of us applied to boost chances and only one guy had any success and he got 4 tickets for each of the 3 games above out of 5 games applied for.
I personally applied for 15 games and got none lol

The more I read on here and twitter the luckier I'm realising we were.
We did tick that we were flexible on which category so I wonder if that may have helped but I imagine there were hundreds of thousands of applications in each category for the final
Edit just seen there were 2.3 mill applications for the final alone
Waiting for the Eng fan members sale. Have slid down the loyalty table a lot since Covid and birth of my son. May sneak in if we get allocated some of the bigger stadiums, but will prob cop the more expensive tickets.
Even Macedonia away this coming weekend had 7k apply for c2k tickets. Unprecedented demand. Means I’m going without a ticket, which means the aggro from the wife will be even worse. So you’re going to Macedonia via Bulgaria for three nights, just to watch it on TV….Yup!
I did 3 games in 2006 without tickets. Got into the 2nd round game. Oh to be young, free and limited commitments again, not bothering with hotels etc, deciding to go last min

There's some horror show applications way worse.
