The BiH Football blog says Bosnia expected to have "great support" in Cardiff. Let's hope they are buying tickets in the away end and not the home sections!

You want to be in the centre not near the sattion. There are a load of B &B s on Cathedral road (walking distance to town and stadium)
Or there is an IBIS and a big sleep in town which are usually cheap and fairly cheerful

Cheapest bet is probably to book into a hostel - the Nos Da opposite the Millennium Stadium still has beds available. If you want a room to yourself, try the B&Bs along Cathedral Road, about 1 mile walk from Stadium & plenty of pubs nearby. Most of them listed via yell.co.uk. Still room in the Cardiff City Centre Travelodge but it's now £89 for a room. |

Tickets have been selling really well today. I reckon we're heading for the biggest-ever Wales crowd in our five years at Cardiff City Stadium.
1. Scotland (2012) WC 23,249
2. Costa Rica (2012) F 23,193
3. Belgium (2012) WC 20,156
4. Bulgaria (2010) EC 14,061
5. Scotland (2009) F 13,844
6. Iceland (2014) F 13,290
7. Norway (2011) F 12,637
8. Finland (2013) F 11,809
9. Macedonia (2013) WC 11,257
10. Serbia (2013) WC 10,293
11. Rep of Ireland (2013) F 10,000*
12. Montenegro (2011) EC 8,194
13. Australia (2011) F 6,373
*Rep of Ireland attendance was incorrectly given as 20,000 - it was around half that.

Looking at those figures is actually a bit depressing, and 1/3 of the crowd during the Scotland match were Scots. Really hoping for a good turnout on the 10th and an even better atmosphere! |

Looking on the bright side, if you list the last five matches in chronological order: Rep of Ireland 10,000 Serbia 10,293 Macedonia 11,257 Finland 11,809 Iceland 13,290 So we're seeing a gradual increase in attendances, Bosnia's going to see a big increase on Iceland too. Looks like fans are starting to stick with us. |

One last chance for people to get Bosnia tickets before "the Bale effect" starts to kick in tomorrow! Please share the link: www.eticketing.co.uk/fawtickets-english/details/event.aspx?itemref=418Big opportunity for the FAW tomorrow. Chris Coleman needs to talk up the possibility of a record crowd for Wales at CCS & how the players want to see the public back the team. Tickets have been selling really well since Saturday - at a faster rate than even the Costa Rica game. All the available blocks in the lower tier could, and should, sell out - it just needs an extra push now. |

Ninian 111 - went on sale at 1pm yesterday - around two thirds / over 600 tickets sold in that block already - could be sold out by this time tomorrow.
Canton 104/105 & 105/106 - both now limited - both will sell out this week. 103, 103/104 & 106/107 could all sell out too.

As predicted - tickets flying out of the Canton today - it's definitely going to sell out online. Spread the word - anyone planning to buy on the night in the Canton is going to be disappointed if they don't buy in advance. Hopefully this is just the begin and before long all 33k odd seats sell out in advance! |

Those from Swansea who have complained about no games at the Liberty and those who complain about the lack of games in north Wales should read this thread. It shows that the CCS is the perfect stadium in which to play our qualifiers in that it enables more fans to see Wales play, especially since the extension above the Ninian end. |

As long as we fill the stadium that's fine - but will we fill it against Cyprus? If CCS can prove itself to be a popular non-sectarian venue for Welsh football matches then I would have no issue with matches being played there (apart from friendlies). But it has a long way to go before that can be proved.

My set of tickets came today, the only game I'll miss with my tournament ticket is Cyprus.. anyone interested ? 2 tickets in the Grandstand,Entrance:3 Block: 205 Row:H Seat:340/341, £15 each though Paypal, I'd send first class. I can't make it because it would cost a bomb to either stay fri/mon or get two trains from North Wales (£75 a pop) Thanks!

People just like complaining. I support Swansea (through family) but am Newport born and bred so maybe I don't see it quite the same as most Swans fans. Cardiff has better transport links. Trains reach many parts of Wales after evening matches, compared to Swansea's one eastbound service. Cardiff has a bigger population around it - the valleys, Newport, Welsh Marches etc compared to Swansea. It makes sense to play at the CCS, even before you say it's 33k capacity. |

I don't think the top level of the Ninian wiill go on sale for the Bosnia match - it's more likely that we'll fill most of the bottom tier. That would still make it a record Wales attendance at any of the new 21st Century grounds. |

Tickets getting limited for Bosnia out of what is for sale. No green blocks anymore.
Surprising people seem to be going for the corners rather than behind the goals too. 111 and 127/129 are practically sold out.
I think even if we win, the attendance for Cyprus will be lower, probably by quite a bit, seeing as it is so soon after and a Monday night. Such a shame UEFA did the fixtures as I am sure the FAW would have tried to avoid a double header as in the last number of campaigns. It's a pitty there isn't a double header in November as well really and in March to save playing in June.
When was the last time we had a home double header?

Surprising people seem to be going for the corners rather than behind the goals too. 111 and 127/129 are practically sold out. Only about 700 Bosnia tickets left on general sale. Just odd individual seats in the Grandstand (5 seats) & Lower Ninian (40 seats). About 150 left in the Family Stand & about 500 left in the Canton. |

I'm pretty certain any remaining blocks in the Canton (107/108, 108/109) and Grange (124/125, 123/124) will be released for sale soon... but do what do people reckon... will we sell enough for the new tier of the Ninian to go on sale?
Personally I think we should try and sell out every single seat in the lower tier first.
