Ideally, would like to know the fixtures in advance. Not so bothered about knowing who the opposition will be, but whether the games are midweek or weekend would be useful to know. Draw is on 2nd Dec I guess this is the gamble you take. Guarantee your tickets with 20% off or wait to see who we play and take the chance on tickets. The uncertainty over when the games will still apply. Are UEFA still looking at their “weekend” of football? That is a valid point, especially if you have young children / need to travel a long distance, etc. All I can suggest is to hold back until they actually publish the schedule in December, and then pay £24 / ticket (but probably not quite as good seats - especially in the Canton). As I mentioned earlier, previous campaign we had 19500 TT holders. This campaign, probably closer to 15k - so come December, you should still have a decent choice.

But then I buy everything as soon as they go on sale.. (well, as soon as I am eligible). Snooze you loose. Support you loose, more like. I think that I was somewhere between Toulouse and Paris when I received the email regarding renewing the membership. Where ever I was at the time, I was spending a small fortune supporting my country in Euro 2016, so couldn't afford to renew my membership at that time.

I imagine I’ll look for availability in the Canton. I’ll try and break up as many trips as possible with an overnight stop in Cardiff or the surrounding areas. Airbnb will be my friend there!

Hmmm works out to be £20 per game for the mickey mouse league of nations. Not such a good deal this time around. The league of nations should only be a tenner to encourage a crowd. cant we qualify to the actual tournament through it?. Not really mickey mouse! Doing it this way guarantees a crowd of 20k plus for the Nations League games. Factor in a decent away support from Ireland and Denmark and we could well be looking at 25k plus for both home matches. Given there is potentially a Euro 2020 play-off place up for grabs I think we're probably right to approach the Nations League as a competitive tournament, rather than a series of friendlies. The nations that treat it seriously could have an advantage.

Also, there are £10 tix for pensioners and £5 tix for under 16 - can not fault the FAW at all regarding ticket pricing. ... Just wait and see how much them lot at the WRU will be charging us for the friendly v Spain ...

I'm not sure all nations will treat it that way. Will countries who've had a long World Cup campaign use it as an excuse to bring in younger players?

Yes, they are qualifiers. But you can lose all 4 games, and none of those count against you for the proper Euro 2020 quals

But will we not be in a better seeding pot for the actual Euro 2020 qualifiers is we win 3 or 4 games?

I had two tournament tickets last campaign. I am a red wall member, my friend is not. Will I be able to get two seats again just with my account?. Or will I need to allocate his seat to his account?.

I believe last campaign you had to be a member to purchase a TT? Previous campaigns you did not. So I assume your mate will also to be a Member also but as long as his account is linked to yours you should be able to do both.

Can someone clarify whether the grange stand is the canton stand as the seating map has no mention of the latter? Confused....

You can also log on 14th June and see if any seats have become free and request a move/swap? Cardiff City are able to do this, so would assume FAW would to?

I had a look at the Canton stand around 10.02 and even then there were only rubbish singles dotted around. Still a fair few row a/b/c/d tickets in the Ninian - practically on half-way line. If we had a better climate, I would have switched to them in a heartbeat ...

I am just annoyed that an error in trying to use a tablet to buy tickets in the last campaign, when in previous ones we had great seats, has led to being stuck with shit ones forever. Something a bit shite for long time fans....blah de blah de blah

Well this is a bit of a joke. Was in Category 3 level tickets for last campaign, Row J in Ninian Level 5. Now they've decided only top half of Ninian Level 5 is Category 3, the rest is Category 2. So I'm paying £24 more for picking a seat a couple of rows lower than halfway last campaign.

So I'm paying £24 more for picking a seat a couple of rows lower than halfway last campaign. I feel your pain. I was Cat 2 last time (£20), half way up the Ninian, and now its Cat 1 (£28). All said and done, its still only £8 more per ticket - that's a burger and a coffee. What I am a little annoyed with, is this sales ploy to only trickle the tickets in tiny numbers. There should be 11k unassigned TT tickets available ... somewhere in the ground. This morning, there were less than 100 ... hell, there were about 20 in total on the Ninian. Happy to pay Cat1 new price, if I had the opportunity to pick a better seat ...

As I'm now bringing my son along, I've passed at renewal in order to buy 2 campaign tickets for us. Not risking the Family Stand as there will be matches he can't make (e.g. school nights) as he's only 6 but don't want to risk being accused of being Gary Glitter by being there on my ownsome(!) so have opted for right at the top of upper Ninian in the gods! Even works out cheaper for the 2 of us than if I just had my renewal!

Hi guys,
Managed to get Row B in the Canton Stand, block 107 which I am pretty chuffed with.
Will everyone still be standing around this area, I am a bit worried its a bit low down so everyone will decide to sit.
