So pleased for all the supporters of English teams who get tickets to watch Wales.

CCFC/Jack etc supporters who get them fair enough.

My boy (17) has been to all the other games but could not afford a membership, as he was saving for his CCFC ST, which he has bought. When tickets went on sale? ..............he had no chance!!

Hope the "foreign team" supporters see their stars and "country" play well :old: :old: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

It was cheaper to buy a membership than pay for every game?

With his limited budget and smaller attendances at the "lesser" games he did not think that all these "supporters" would appear. Never mind eh! as long as they enjoy themselves.

He has also not missed a friendly game for years - but that is what loyalty brings you though I suppose :roll:

You can't have a go at people just because they want to watch wales because they are doing well , do you
Want us to play Infront of 10-12k every week just to keep you happy?

The season ticket was guaranteed ticket for everyone at the start and plenty were available, now people moan they couldn't get tickets dispite watching every wales game

Faw set it out fair for tickets loyal fans buy season tickets don't matter if you support Barcelona or cardiff what difference does that make?

Not moaning personally, quite happy to sit at home and watch it on TV. Think the FAW have seriously FU as they would have filled the Millennium Stadium and kept the everyone happy - even the part timers :old:

I'm glad the FAW did'nt move it to the millenium stadium. The atmosphere would have been utter shite and you would have had the 50,000 extra 'supporters' who never usually turn up. Hopefully, the majority of people who have managed to get tickets for this game are passionate welsh fans which will create a good intimidating atmosphere.

I'm sorry you were unable to get tickets due to financial reasons but that is hardly the FAW's fault.

Personnaly, the only error made by the FAW was allowing members to purchase 10 tickets each!!

Also memberships were £10 or £5 for juniors, he has had the opportunity to buy one for 9 months, could you not have loaned the boy £10, nobody is to blame here but yourselves for people who missed out on tickets, tickets had been on sale for a very long time and everybody knew after the increasing crowds of Bosnia and Cyprus and being top of the group it would sell out

Sell out .............is correct - like the previous poster said 1 "fan" could by 10 tickets - check out e bay!!
As I mentioned he was using his money to buy a CCFC ST and support a welsh team not manure of some other English team.
Don't give a monkeys myself, will watch on TV. Hope the "Glory Hunters" have a good time, because that's all they do enjoy is the good times :lol:

You don't give a monkeys yourself through the good or bad times, imagine everyone had the same attitude then the ground would always have 10000, I'd much rather a bouncing crowd like against Bosnia than the 20 of us that watch the last qualifying campaign against Macedonia

I think is its absolutely right that loyalty is rewarded, but ten tickets per member leaves the system open for abuse. I've watched Wales through good and bad times over the years but haven't been to a game since we lost to Germany at the millennium a few years back so wouldn't expect to be able to just get a ticket for a big game. But its always been the same - I didn't miss a single home match for several years but still missed out on the infamous Romania game and had to watch it on TV instead. I think the FAW are right to stick with CCS - it's better to have a full stadium even if it may not last if we fail to qualify again and the players prefer it too.

Jeez, mate. Get your head around the fact that 75% of Welsh football supporters actually have first teams outside of CCFC, SCFC, NCFC.

They are still Welsh football supporters who want Wales to do well.

All adds to the mix.

For the record, I glory hunted all the way to Moscow... ;) And Belgrade... ;) And many other places.

And actually got the last two half season tickets sold via our very own Mona at the ticket office but would have understood if I had to watch at home.
