Uefa cup final tickets

[Odvan]

Hopefully you'll get sorted mate, and be alongside me.:thup:

Nah, he's in the posh seats this time I reckon. That football family is a right injustice, selectively of course

I applied via UEFA's ballot - no joy.

Liverpool's ballot - no joy, but on the reserve list.

Got one today, via the reserve list.:whoo:

Still not missed a major domestic or European final since 1984.

Over 30 European aways over the years means nothing, as all based on this seasons credits. Went to all the home games, but no aways.

I seen man Citys criteria via a points based system a few years ago, and they seem to have a great system, based on multi-seasons also. LFC's system is rubbish, and doesnt reward extended loyalty, or loyalty in other competitions.

How is Chelsea/United/City/Arsenal/Spurs in relation?

As I understand it, Chelsea's system is also points based, the more attractive the opposition the less points. Applies to home & aways and the tickets are then released in waves, i.e only those with between x & y points, then those between y & z, etc. There are a few caveats.

I believe that whilst season ticket holders get the lions share, there is some rake off for members, again sold on a points basis, and also for corporates. However if you're paying £1 million a year for a box I can understand a degree of expectation.

There is also a rake off for Thomas Cook who are the corporate travel partner. Whilst these are also sold on a points allocation basis, they ain't cheap, consequently you can get a ticket with less points through them than you would through the club because people aren't prepared to pay the inflated prices.

So what about last year when the Capacity was 56,000 and attendance was 45,000,
You have to book the stadium years in advance.

Do you really believe that you just judge it on 1 years poor attendance.

I remember a semi at WHL between Luton and Wimbledon being only half full - so do you play all semis at 25k stadiums - no you dont.

If Everton ever build a stadium, will they just build for about 35k to fill it every week - no, theyll build a 45-50k, and rightly so.

You dont plan for failure, you plan for success - new concept for you?

Sounds fairer in the main though, well done Chelsea. (words not previously seen on this thread, I believe).

Your missing the point, 56000 capacity, each team got 9500.
36000 capacity you're both getting 9000, so only 500 less tickets for 20000 more seats.
So guaranteeing to play it in bigger stadiums doesn't solve the issue, the fans of the clubs still get done over.

2013/14 - Juve's ground, capacity 41000, 33000 attendance.

2012/13 - Amsterdam Arena, capacity 52000, 46000 attendance (Chelsea won it and only got 9800 tickets)

Seems the smaller the ground the better the share.

sevilla sent 2000 of there tickets back?

 

[davidy233]

I've got a UEFA Cup final ticket (Sevilla end)



From 2008 in Glasgow - It's the Europa League now and Sevilla still own it

Its two things that will improve it.

Bigger capacity ground and UEFA not taking the pee out of their own allocation of tickets, which mainly end up with the touts.

Cant believe it didnt sell out with an English club there, unless Chelsea fans werent bothered.

Liverpool took 45-50,000 to Dortmund in 2001, Alaves had approx 8,000, rest were neutrals.

Yes, we were only due about 9,000, they gave us 1.6k of theirs. The other 400 are apparently going to remain empty, as UEFA wont sell them for segregation reasons.

I'm in no position to dispute Paul's figures but I don't remember seeing 6,000 empty seats (over 10%) in there; that said it wasn't what I was focussing on.

It was under Rafa, who was pretty much universally hated at Chelsea and it was the junior competition the year after winning the big one so it wouldn't surprise me if a number weren't bothered.
