Players that need moves/game time in January;

Kieffer - Move back to Cardiff

Ward - Sign for a low end Championship club, whoever is looking for a GK

Neco - Loan to Southampton?

Brooks - Permanent move to Leicester? I think that would be good for him, good club on the way back up

L.Harris - Any senior football would be good. Loan to League Two would be a good place to start

Colwill - Any chance he gets regular minutes at Cardiff? If not a move away is probably best

Some players and teams seem to just fit. Moore and Cardiff, Ward maybe to Huddersfield.

Might sound odd but I'd like to see Neco move permanently to a club like Preston. Never get promoted or relegated so won't be replaced for a long time. Just stability for him.

If I were a betting man, I'd bet that play-off A pulls England out the hat on Saturday, to play in Gelsenkirchen ...
The most expensive God-awful town in the tournament ;-(

Jack Vale on the scoresheet for Lincoln tonight. Next campaign possibly should be drafted into the snr squad.

Glad we drawn at home for this. After seeing violence caused by Warsaw fans at Villa last night a trip there would have led to loads of anxiety. FAW need to be firm on the 5%. Not a single ticket more and they need to start thinking now of the best procedure for preventing home tickets falling into the hands of the many Polish who reside in the UK.

There were plenty of Polish in the home ends last night. The SWP need to get working on this too. there'll be no time for this, if and when we progress to the final. I know we've been guilty of taking more fans away than we have tickets but we don't go with the intention of creating the violence that occurred last night.

Agreed but I'll be pissed off if they do any damage or cost us a fortune because they can't behave. There was enough aggro in the NL friendly so such a big game could exacerbate the issues.

The scenes in Birmingham were awful, if UEFA had any balls they would stop any Polish fans from attending any away games, be it club or international level for 12 months. These inbred chimps won't learn anything otherwise.

I'm not sure that will be easy. I suppose that you could base it on surname, but I know of a few Polish ladies that have married British guys and now got British surnames.

Your right. Members will take the lions share and General sale will be restricted to those who were on the data base. If they restrict those on general sale to 2 per application unless there's a history of buying more then that could go someway. Touts could well be factor this time. They'll no there'll be a ready market of Poles willing to get in at any cost.

We need to base the test on the instantly collapsing for no-reason test.

Anyone falling over even before the security personel touches them - a cert to be a Polak, with instant red card!

Oh. And can we have a word with Wizz Air to cancel all their flights into London and Birmingham - or at least to change them five times with minimal notice...

[cynonvalley]

Just restrict tickets to anyone who has bought tickets to Wales home games (except the Poland NL game) in a certain period.

There were Polish fans in front of me in the Ninian Stand for the NL game.

UEFA are useless. Early on in the Europa Conference Final, Fiorentina players were play acting and seemingly wasting time, fans had enough and launched plastic cups at them, one nicked a players head and because of the heat the bleeding made it look worse than it was. West Ham were punished for it, fans banned from away games. The incident actually benefitted the game as Fiorentina cut out the greaseball stuff and to be honest I could understand the throwing of plastic cups, they were ruining a massive game with their bullshit, I just didn't agree with doubling or tripling cups and that caused the nick. In the semi final tooled up balaclava wearing Dutch idiots got their backsides handed to them by a handful of men that protected families as the stewards and police did barely anything, one of those protecting everyone has now had his life changed for the worse, forever. AZ Alkmaar received a smaller punishment.

Ticket info out: fawales.co/484iPZs

Can renew our seats thankfully. £30-£40 for most people depending where you are plus the booking fee. On sale January 22nd for those renewing.

If we lose the second ticket is valid for the game against the other loser.

Fair play to the FAW for keeping the ticket prices the same as during the campaign.

There’s no chance this sells out before reaching stage 3 is there? Didn’t renew my red wall membership this campaign, just been doing the odd game

I'd have thought there'll be some left but you'll want to be quick on the uptake when your phase kicks in.

You may find it easier to buy tickets for the second game as a ticket for potentially Estonia in a dead rubber after fucking up not a very attractive prospect

Wtf?! It’s a potential play off final!! Same conditions as the Ukraine game was sold under!

[bobbyghoul]

If I, as a Euro24 campaign ticket holder, want to take my 2 kids, I have to wait until 8th Feb?

[benchwarmer1999]

So there is basically no chance to get tickets if I haven't bought any tickets during this campaign nor have a Red Wall membership? I assume resale is non-existent because of the app ticket system?

I'm pretty sure the same happened then. I got both tickets last time and will again but although it seems counterintuitive I get the thinking behind it. The first game is definitely important the second could be more important or as unimportant a game as you'll ever see.

There’s not no chance at all, it’s just the ones who have bought tickets throughout the campaign and are red wall members will get first chance.

Take this as a learning point, but it’s vital to get Red Wall membership. It cost so little compared to other teams as well.

You must be living in some parallel universe if you think the Tuesday game won’t have high demand. If people can only attend one, they’ll pick that one, I would say both matches will sell out before non-member's can buy. We have approx 25k members going for 30k tickets and members can purchase 4 at a later stage.

[vvm]

Hoping I'll be ok in stage 3. In hindsight it would have been a good idea to get the membership but there just wasn't a point when I needed it. Not sure when the previous membership expired but I went to Belgium away so must have been after that.

I couldn't make any of the away games this campaign and all of the home games I attended didn't sell out that quickly so I just bought in general sales.

You won’t be able to get euro tickets through your account, if we make it.

I'm not saying there won't be high demand.
Just saying some people will be targeting the game we're definitely playing over the one which might be the most pointless game ever. It's not hard to follow

The Ukraine / Scotland original game for March 2022 was sold out quickly under the same pretence that we knew if we lost the semi we would be playing a friendly which the ticket would cover, with no refund. People don’t care if it could be the most pointless match ever. It could be one of the most import games ever!

Sorry but this is incorrect.

It’s not possible to have not gone to a match in 2023 or not have a membership to purchase tickets for these games. They aren’t going on general sale. benchwarmer1999

[benchwarmer1999]

What about resale? Is there any ticket exchange or reliable resale sites?

Fair enough, I was talking about the (unlikely) event of it not selling out, surely the seats wouldn’t be left empty.
Either way, it will sell out so not worth thinking about

Yeah they’ve obviously applied the 2023 games to try limit polish fans getting home tickets.
