Criteria used by FAW to decide who was likely to get tickets
After the application window has closed, UEFA will share with us the data of all members who have applied for tickets. FAW will implement the loyalty system depending on the number of applications received and will prioritise the lead applicants before sending the data back to UEFA. UEFA will then process applications in this order and will confirm to the applicant if they have been successful. The loyalty points system was implemented, based on the following:
Loyalty Points
Euro 2016 Gold or Junior Membership - 3 you would have bought these in 2014/15
2014 World Cup Gold or Junior Membership - 3 you would have bought these 2012/13
Euro 2016 Full Tournament Ticket - 6
Euro 2016 Half Tournament Ticket - 4
2014 World Cup Tournament Ticket - 6
Away Match Ticket (last 11 away games considered) - 2
Those members with the highest number of points were at the top of the priority groupings list. In the event that more than one group of members had the same total points, priority was given to those with more away matches.

i thought they were taking into consideration the last 3 tournaments. Also, what about tickets for individual matches rather than tournament tickets

Does anyone know how many TT holders there were in WC2014 qualifying?

Would appear from those criteria that loyalty only started two years ago, tell that to those that have been going for years who should have been top of the list, where is the loyalty to the 1200 £25.00 members from 2012 when no-one wanted to join except the very loyal Welsh fans.

Also, what about tickets for individual matches rather than tournament tickets I went to every home game for the qualifiers, but only had a half tournament ticket. Bosnia and Cyprus tickets were bought individually, so I spent more money than a full tournament ticket holder would have. Not that I mind as it appears I have been successful, but just something to think about. Bit unfair if no points are tallied for individual home tickets. |

I agree that those should have priority, but FAW see the data of who has applied and these criteria may well ensure all those from the 2012 campaign get tickets. |

Some of us will always be unhappy at whatever criteria is adopted, what we ultimately want is transparency. The criteria appears to be devised after information has been given out. Not good enough and very poor way to manage a business.

Looks like I had 22 points based on that criteria. Would be interesting to see what the cut off has been for the individual group games at the Euros

I agree that those should have priority, but FAW see the data of who has applied and these criteria may well ensure all those from the 2012 campaign get tickets. I hope so because I actually had a membership and tournament ticket for the 2012 campaign and did a couple of aways. There's no mention of points for individual tickets for home games. Because of work I didn't buy a tournament ticket this campaign and just bought them individually nearer the time. I ended up able to go to every home game except Cyprus but that doesn't seem to count here? |

The criteria was always there on website but until the correct amount of ticket applications was known Lucy and her team were unable to accurately say which part of the system would be implemented...once they had 52,000 ticket applications then they went with the above...which includes memberships since 2012 ,the last two qualifying campaigns home season tickets and the last eleven away games...can someone put on here if they have had tickets approved with less than 15 points? That may give us some idea who did and didn't get tickets....on the above system I would personally have 2 memberships 6 points 2 tournament tickets 12 points and 10 away games having missed Macedonia 20 points so 38 points ..40 would be the maximum and less than 30 had that ...but it's hard to gauge how low you woukd have to be points wise to get tickets unless some fans come forward and tell us

Admittedly they were all in category 2, which he deliberately selected in the belief that the vast majority would go for categories 3 and 4. This decision may well have proved crucial in the end. |

Will they stick to this for future away games? I for one would happily pay far more than £10 for membership if it was guaranteed that an agreed set of criteria is used. |

I only had 3 points for membership. Applied for cat 1 or 2 tickets for Slovakia, Russia, second round and QF. From the pending transaction I think I've got 3 matches.
Before anyone shouts 'bandwagon' I would have had plenty more points from home matches but book thru our football club so they got cash back on the bookings.

Can someone explain why home games purchased seperately are not taken into consideration and only tournament tickets are counted ?

This just seems to clarify UEFA are taking payments regardless if you were successful. There's no chance one home game and one away gets you tickets.

Yes the clever ones who knew they had few points opted for Category 1 and 2 where there was less demand but they were expensive

It will if your applying in cat 1. Probably very few applicants for that level. Of course people don't know for sure what they've actually got. They may think their getting what they applied for but possibly missed out in the group games and been bumped for the knock out stages.

Should always buy tickets to support the team first and then come what may If you knew you had low points did you not go for the expensive tickets? |
