My mate has watched every single home and away match bar the one in Kazan and didn't manage to get a ticket , no doubt plenty more have been to all the matches and didn't get a ticket yet a bunch of suits who havent seen one football match in his life will be sat there as guest of UEFA having zero interest in the game

That's surprising when well less than 10.000 will have been to all that amount of games.
 
I get the issue of ticket allocation, it comes up every year at most events, bit it's no good moaning about UEFA at club level when the same organisation is the one making European qualification so lucrative, the only way things will change is if national bodies start complaining, LPool/Man U/Spurs moaning about the Final venue is pointless, it needs to be the PL

If you mean the FA, is that going to happen, surely they won't get there brown envelope then with god knows how many tickets in it, and I wonder where they go?

Agree Robin but meant the PL, if the PL didn't have european qualification attached to it then the FA and UEFA may listen and get involved.

Everyone talks about cl footy being the minimum requirement for big clubs. Well of these big clubs want the ££££ that comes with it. Where do you think it comes from? If I'm The President of Coca Cola paying 'x' million a season, you can be sure I'm getting my sweetener.

Exactly, Clubs can't have it both ways, we already know the stadia for next years finals, but the clubs won't moan unless they reach one, otherwise they don't care,

Phil, I'm not calling you a liar but if your mate had been to 8 European games this season he'd have been Guaranteed a final ticket, 7 games went into a ballot. Unless of course he's been using spares then it's tough titty.

Are you going ?

I believe the club's don't want it both ways

They would like their fans watching them play a European final and as the article says many clubs have complained a number of times about the ticketing system
 
Let's be honest, the uefa cup isn't aimed at the European Giants so in recent years it's not been an issue. Now that European Royalty have reached the final it's issues has reared.

So you think that the big clubs would happily play the champs league without the £40m prize money and untold millions in sponsorship each year. As long as uefa promised to play finals in 90k stadiums with a 50/50 split for the fans.

Clubs are businesses. They may well do the odd thing that looks good in the press, but the board all take a nice salary. Win lose or draw.

Why does the prize money need to be reduced to allow more fans to go to a final ?

UEFA earn billions each year from telly deals and sponsership - no reason why the money needs to be reduced to allow more fans to be able to go

Why would sponsor pay the same for no "perks" like corporate invite tickets to all matches?

Same with TV kick the in ground studios out get more fans in?
