I guess the question is how many can they fit in the highlighted area? The question should be. How many tickets do you want for the Cardiff City stadium ? We'll give you 3,000 if you give us 3,000. Then work from there. Failing that if they give us the 5%, they only get 5%.

Unlike the Cardiff City Stadium, where the away section boundaries can be moved to suit.

Cant see them giving any more than the minimum 5%. They've been awkward sods up to this point so why would they change now?

I hope/imagine they will just give us the whole highlighted section in my above post for segregation purposes, it looks pretty straight forward. Just a question of capacity then in my opinion.

Unlike the Cardiff City Stadium, where the away section boundaries can be moved to suit. If indeed they have no ability or willingness to be flexible, we adjust the Cardiff City stadium and give them exactly what we have to. We have now long since rubbished the rhetoric given out when agreeing allocations with the Irish. The away capacity at the Cardiff city stadium is variable to suit.

View AttachmentI guess the question is how many can they fit in the highlighted area? I have tried counting but the image resolution isn't quite good enough. Purely comparing it with Carmarthen's stand which seats 1100, it looks to be a very similar capacity. Carmarthen has 9 rows, Osijek looks to have 10. And the section in Osijek also looks longer to me, but it does have a big hole in it too.

The new Osijek stadium currently under construction will have a capacity of 12,000.

No white smoke out of the WFA yet. Is it bad news I wonder or expect. Can I be the first to pray for a kinder draw for the world cup qualifiers with regards to allocations. Can we please have at least a couple of games in tidy sized stadiums without having to travel half way to outer Mongolia.

The Opera House in Ulan Bator was very disappointing ... and try being a vegetarian there. Ha!
Eastern Europe every time, for me ;-) The Baltics, if possible ;-)

It's been a week now since the FAW were in Osijek and still no news on the allocation. Do we know yet if the FAW have been to Budapest? Nothing on Lucy's twitter feed since Osijek visit. I dont know Matthew's twitter.
I imagine that the ticket sales for Croatia and Hungary will be done at the same time. Most likely using the same eligibility criteria.
EDIT Neil at dragonsoccer has tweeted that FAW have already been to Budapest even prior to their Osijek visit ;-)

The Albania allocation was confirmed about a month before the game, wouldn't expect to hear anything for another few weeks. Hopefully they'll release soon though because of the two games, probably more logistics to deal with etc.

So FAW expect to use the same loyalty system as the Hungary game which would be
8 of the last 12 for Stage 1 7 for stage 2 6 for stage 3 etc..
As we're possibly having a smaller allocation as well I wouldn't expect too many tickets available for stage 2.

That means the lucky gits will be 2 more games ahead of the pack for the Slovakia allocation later on in the year which I bet will also be shite too ?

this fking sucks. so stage 1 for CRO HUN SLO maybe AZE...so i wont be eligible for any even though ill be there. and next year ill lose another 3 games from Euro 16. these pointless friendlies across the globe have completely wasted years of trying to fit in competitive aways games.

Euro 2016 qualifiers have already been dropped. On the plus side if you managed to go to just a single of the counting 12 you'll almost definitely be able to get tickets for the finals. There is no other positive. I really hope we get a kinder draw next time.

The Belgians took 350 out to Russia and only increased that to 800 when they made it into the semis...

ok my mistake not euro 16 but WC in 2016.
The last 12 away matches are as follows:
Albania Rep. of Ireland Denmark Mexico Uruguay China France _____________ Georgia Moldova Serbia Republic of Ireland Austria
my point is 4 competitive games will be wiped off and replaced with the euro 20 games i cannot now get tickets. because i couldnt go to 5 fing friendlies across the globe within a year. therefore out of next 12. ill have 2. We need to start getting bigger allocations.

We need to start getting bigger allocations. Perfectly understand where you are coming from. Please remember that only 320 to 350 were at the first (China) match and the game out in LA.
Around 420-450 made it to the Uruguay match, and the extra 100 or so were mostly local expats and a few British backpackers.
I can pretty much guarantee you that 90% of those that made it to those games have been to almost every game this century.
Thus, the 8 out of 12 criteria genuinely means that people that made 8 out of these 9 will get tickets - for all of these matches we had 2000+ allocation, with the exception of Moldova being 1500 allocation : Albania Rep. of Ireland Denmark Georgia France Moldova Serbia Republic of Ireland Austria

according to FAW
hungary have 1100 tickets available. 800 stage 1 450 stage 2 450 stage 3
Osijek will be worse and sold out by stage 1.
After Hun youll have 1100 stage 1. 250 stage 2.
The stage 1 will keep growing and all the others will drop away
point is these small venues are killing me i have 6/7 competitive and if i cant get any for 2020. then ill have 6 in 16. OR 2 in 11 after WC QF drops out.
if we had 2000 as you say i wouldnt be an issue. osijek as a venue just compounds the issues and FAW need to get a grip.

Osijek is clearly in breach of UEFA's rules, apart from putting in a formal complaint it just seems that the FAW then just sat back and let the Croatian FA schmooze UEFA. (And that is before we even start to talk about their negotiation skills with the Hungarian FA)

I'm not holding my breath... just saying.

"Ticket information for the away match in Croatia is still to be confirmed, however we expect to receive a similar allocation and, therefore, the eligibility criteria is likely to be the same."
