Do you think they may open the new stand on the day of the game? Doesn't seem to be a lot of seats together for a walk up crowd in the current lower tier blocks on sale. Only one more block remains too without any ticket sales yet, except for blocks I assume that will be used as segregation, if I am not wrong.. 108/109? I think we will beat the Scotland game by at least 2k if not more the way it is going.

Yes 108/109 ... and possibly 123/124 depending on how much segregation is required. I think the new stand is a possibility - but they will definitely try and fill all the available lower tier seats first. Depends how well blocks 107/108 & 124/125 sell in the meantime.

Comes back what we were saying earlier in this thread: anyone who definitely wants to be with the singers in the Canton, or who definitely wants to take their kids in the Family Stand will need to buy in advance.

Anybody looking to travel down from north wales ? Big support expected from north Wales for the Bosnia match - a lot of Wrexham fans coming down on Friday morning then travelling back Saturday morning for the 150th anno match. I've heard a lot of minibuses coming down from clubs in Gwynedd too.

The Bosnia ticket allocation for blocks 103 to 106 is almost sold out - just 80 tickets left in total across the five blocks. Most of the remaining tickets are individual seats. If anyone on here still wants to be in the singing section, there's still about 100 Tournament Tickets left in block 103/104. Anyone who wants to go in the Canton with a big group of mates - your last chance is to grab tickets in 107/108.

Although I see you've managed to fall out with a rugby union fan, Baxter. Can't believe she was claiming people wouldn't go and see Wales v Bosnia unless it was £10 a ticket.

I wouldn't pay 1p to watch egg let alone £75. I fill with so much anger when I see how to be welsh 'LOVE Rugby' (usually followed with don't care about football). Rubbish.

www.eticketing.co.uk/fawtickets-english/details/event.aspx?itemref=418I understand that 411 to 417 and 511 to 517 have not yet been released for sale. I understand that 121/122 is for the Bosnia supporters. But: 1) Are the red bits (choose your tickets) down to excellent sales? Or have other blocks not yet been released for sale? 2) Is 103/104 to 106/107 down to most of the supporters traditionally getting tickets on the day? The red blocks at the Canton end of the Grandstand & the centre blocks of the Ninian are all Tournament Ticket blocks. These are pretty much sold out. Once the Grandstand & Ninian have sold out, the Canton will start to follow. I personally wouldn't leave it until the day for this match- I think sales could reach tipping point when the squad is announced & the bottom tier could sell out with a good marketing campaign. I feel more certain now that the bottom tier will all but sell out, with just individual seats & a few tournament ticket rows left by Friday.

Are we looking at a possible sell out?

Are we looking at a possible sell out? Really think that all the blue seats in the stadium will be sold out, other than the individual seats which will only amount to a few hundred. So looking at probably 26k approaching 27sh from that. I'd imagine now they will open the new red stand on the day of the game at least for the walk up crowd, so I think we could be in sight of 30k which would be amazing, imagine if we beat the Super Cup final attendance! (30,854)! Must have sold around 22k already.

We will never know the answer to the question but how many of the walk up crowd (or those booking in advance from now on) would we have lost had SuperBale been injured yesterday? Could his availability act as another sales boost? I hope so. Interesting question but positive either way because he is ok

Assuming 107/108 & 124/125 sell out today - which they almost certainly will - then we'll be past the magic 20k mark. I think a Stadium record of 23,249 is the most realistic target we'll reach. Word is though starting to get round the club messageboards that a big attendance is expected - and that is certainly increasing sales.

Interesting question but positive either way because he is ok One significant thing about walk-up crowds: they are nearly always bigger for the opening qualifier. Azerbaijan in 2008, Bulgaria in 2010 and Belgium in 2012 all had big walk-ups. 5k tickets were sold for Belgium in the 48 hours before that match. The only other game in the past decade that's had a significant walk-up was Czech Republic in 2007, and that was because of Giggs' retirement. The forecast for Friday is wet, which will put off the fair weather Wales fans. Good advance sales are the most important thing. And yes, Toshfan, I think the arrival of Mr Bale could well see another sales boost.

The tickets go off sale? Does that mean you can only get them on the day?

The tickets go off sale? Does that mean you can only get them on the day? Ticket site says: "Tickets will remain on sale online until 3pm on Monday 6th October. Any tickets booked after this time must be collected from the big red booth between gates 3 and 4 at Cardiff City Stadium. Tickets booked before this date will be sent out by first class post." ... so if you want Bosnia tickets after 3pm today, you'll either have to (a) go to the Stadium ticket office to buy in person (I think it's open Mon-Fri), (b) phone the ticket office 0845 345 1400 to book the tickets and collect them from the big red booth on the night, or (c) queue up at the big red booth and buy them on the night. If the FAW do sell 5,000 more tickets, as happened in the 48 hours before the Belgium game, then the queues will be huge. You also won't get much choice where you sit.

I've just been sad enough to count, 560 individual match seats for Bosnia remain on sale atm. Majority in 107/108.
Approx 214 tournament tickets remain excluding blocks 117 & 101/103. Must be about 500 left between these blocks.
So only around 1250 tickets remain from all the blocks that have gone on sale and only 2 remain that could? We must have passed 20k already surely? Especially as the corporate isn't included and we must have sold some seats up there too!

Who's going to take the chance of buying on the night?!
