Anyone want Russia v Slovakia ?  Another hour with sweet fa and now the log out log in trick stopped working That's the game I've been trying for. Got the 3 group games so not really desperate for anything, but as we're around the area the day of that game we wanted to go to Russia V Slovakia too as a "bonus" game. Not sure I want it enough to pay 105 euros for it though, so been holding out for category 3 or 4. Seen a couple of category 3 pop up from time to time but ideally I want cat 4. Portal's open for a month though so no rush, and if we get towards the end of it I'll settle for cat 3. |

Just putting my sports therapist cap on, to try and give you some guidance in terms of posture and diet. This isn't a sprint, its a marathon! By now you may well have started to develop sign of RSI ( repetitive strain injury), most likely carpal tunnel syndrome and possibly trapped nerve issues. POSTURE:Always have flat feet on the ground. Never cross your feet or your legs. Always ensure that your elbows are tucked back, in line with your hips. Make sure that your laptop/computer keyboard is tilted almost sideways, so that the F5 button is easily reachable. Try to keep your fingers as loose as possible - even the one on the mouse/F5. If you are focusing on the word "Categories" to see the first sign of availability, ensure that this word is at eye height. So scroll the entire page up as high as you can to achieve this.
NUTRITION:Eat plenty of oily fish (mackerel, sardines, herring and anchovies) omega-3 is great for keeping the mind sharp and focused as well as excellent for supple joints. If you prefer meat, then red/fatty meat is better than white. So eat rib-eye steak, rump and lamb chops etc. For our non carnivorous friends, walnuts and linseed (must be freshly ground). SUPPLEMENTS:If you lack it in your diet - then fish oil. Almost everyone over the age of 11 can benefit from Vitamin D (4000 IU / 100mcg). If you have rosemary in your garden, bring a little in daily, and place over a paper towel on top of your radiator. Excellent for focus and alertness. If not fresh then buy pure essential oils of rosemary and/or cedar wood. I highly recommend that you alternate with your alertness / focus strategies. We 1000% focused on one sessions and then alternate with using Monkey Refresh (addon for Chrome) and allow it to refresh automatically every 5 seconds. Perhaps use this for the R16 and Quarter Final games, that perhaps mean less to you? Hope this helps ;-) Funny f*cker  |

Just spoke to UEFA Ticketing Customer Services, they advised me that your '1st' ticket will have your name on it and additional tickets will not. They said that you can only enter the stadium if you are the named ticket holder or are (for the additional tickets) with the named ticket holder so therefore you cannot swap tickets. I bought a few extra so I could swap and am worried I am now stuck with them - am i over-worrying about this? Is this something you can enforce? Can you change the name on the ticket?

Thats my concern, will they insist on ID at the ground - surely its not enforceable? I think they just "have" to say this?

I just think it's a stance they have to take, although its not really enforceable to check every name on every ticket

Sadly, very meager pickings today all around ...
On the Slovakia game front, all I saw was 1 ticket Cat2 (just now) and 1 ticket Cat3 about an hour ago.
I have a feeling there might be 8 year-old kids in Indian sweatshops that have faster fingers than me ;-(

 Thank you for choosing to wait. You will enter the ticket portal in order of arrival. Below you can see the progress bar for your entry to the ticket portal. Once it has reached the end, you will be redirected. Sick of seeing this

not sure if i'm missing a trick.
when the wales vs slovakia game is available i've been in to chose the number of tickets then it says i've been unsuccessful. you go back in the main portal and the wales vs slovakia game is still there. so you go back in, choose the number of tickets and it still says unavailable?
is that common?
i still think lots more tickets will come available over the weeks though as i can't believe the south western french are itching to watch Wales vs Slovakia.

Yeah, that's a very irritating thing that happens. You can understand if someone beats you but when you go back, it should be gone. I suppose it's another indicator that the individual match pages are updated sooner than the main page. |

So sorry to hear that, Aled.
When I get my hands on those England tickets, one of them will have your name on it, including a free bottle of Rosemary oil ;-)
Just a quick note to say, that at least for me, there have been plenty of crashes and freezing screens since midnight last night. On Wednesday I was really relaxed and picked three games for my one basket and then picked another two games into another basket.
Today, twice, I have had Slovakia game in my basket. The first time i had 13 minutes left, so carried on looking for Russia tickets ... two minutes later it froze, then went to Waiting Room ;-(
Second time, he learns his lesson and goes swiftly to check out ... and half way through check out the thing crashes.
I will keep away from searching for my missing England ticket until things settle.
I can't imagine what I will feel like if I loose THAT ticket after about 20 hours to-date...
KEEPING THE FAITH!

... and two sets of our Russia game Cat4 and Cat3 about an hour ago ...
sadly, I am not quick enough...
Waiting Room timer is sometimes minimal (7 or 8 seconds) or sometimes nothing at all.
I think it has sorted out the Robotic software scams by always having a Captcha to insert every 15 minutes.
Sadly, it still crashes about once an hour for no reason at all, so please be warned:
If you bag any tickets at all - Go to check out and pay for them immediately
... As I lost out twice yesterday on Slovakia tickets that were in my shopping basket
