Where have the 3000 fans in Hungary gone? Is this the Giggs effect? I would guess a long weekend in the sun in June is more appealing than a Thursday night in October to many. Coupled with the fact Croatia and Hungary were the first away trips this year and of this campaign, plus the first competitive away trip in over a year if you discount the nations league games. |

If its from Stansted, then I'd suggest looking at the direct flight to Vienna for £22 with laudamotion.com that gets in at 11pm - as the Ryan Air has already gone up to £60... There is also an Easyjet to Vienna the gets in at 9pm for ££40
Exact same distance into downtown Bratislava ... About €70 Uber X if you dont fancy the €5 Slovakia Lines bus at 9.30pm or midnight -

How likely is it this will go down to CAT 7? Haven’t been to an away game but definitely interested in this

How likely is it this will go down to CAT 7? Haven’t been to an away game but definitely interested in this Pretty likely if the figures of 300+ tickets remaining are true. May not even sell out. A little difficult to gauge the remaining upper tier £20 tickets, as not all Sektor 47 have sold out yet (circa 20-30 there) but this morning 10am some tickets were sold in Sektor 46 rows 11/12 - about another 50 in there in total.
If you are buying for a group, you may need to add 2 tickets at a time into your basket, then even one at a time. Just add and then go back - all tickets will then be in you basket for check-out
Regardless of this, only four more VIP tickets were sold up until 10.30am - so AT LEAST 150 £35 TICKETS STILL REMAIN.
Pretty sure some £20 tickets will still remain for the general public this afternoon - but maybe best to be there at 2pm sharp!
AS ALWAYS ... IF YOU SEE NO TICKETS AT 2PM KEEP ON REFRESHING THE PAGE - AT LEAST FOR HALF AN HOUR
There will probably still be VIP tickets all weekend and through until Tuesday ...

Any idea where in the stadium the lone 200 section is? £35 tickets are in ZONE 9 ROW 6. Any remaining £20 tix are in Sektor 46 behind the goal at the very top - rows 13 and 14. As I am NOT behind the goal ... its free seating ... cus its an away game

Seriously didn't consider this trip as of 30 hours ago. Now I've got a ticket, booked flights and now looking for a hotel!
Fair play to the FAW for cracking down on it.

Had three Cat 1's in my basket at 2:02pm but could not get the purchase to complete - after entering credit card details it kept saying no time left return to basket. Tried for about 10 minutes with three different cards and eventually timed out and lost what was in the basket. Gutted.

Ive totally taken my eye off the ball and had absolutely no idea these were on sale today. My mate got himself one but didn’t let the rest of us know until it was too late. 6 of us Booked flights and digs months ago and was hopeful if not confident of getting tickets.
Long shot I know but if anyone is looking to offload any I’d be massively grateful if they’d let me know.

To me it shows harvesting it's more wide spread than fans let on. Ok our campaign is in the balance but not for the mass exodus of the so called hardcore... to go the stage there must have been a lot from stage one did not take up they tickets .. correct me if I am wrong but 1700 in stage 1

Please email and/or Tweet the FAW Ticket office and ask them to put you on their waiting list. This will give you the points/credits, as well.
I imagine a fair few more tickets will become available- just like for Austria/Tbilisi/Belgrade.

You are wrong... 1700 people is not the 'regular' stage one - it is more like stage 1 / 2 / 3 rolled into one.
There is a solid core of 700 to 800 people that have been going in the last 5 years or so to every away. Before that, this group was more like 300-500 or so...

I agree that 1700 is not the regular stage 1. But I'm not sure that the solid group who go to EVERY away is as big as 700 or 800 either - it's just that until now they've been able to easily buy a ticket for every away game. Either way, it's impossible to prove. |

It does seem to be the same old ugly faces, game in and game out  That's why I prefer to sit with the WAGs given half a chance  gary_williams, being the exception, of course

Reading a little about Trnava and it seems like (similar to Budapest) THE OLD SYNAGOGUE is a very decent area to hang around and/or stay overnight. Its also only about 500m from there to the stadium ;-) And - yes - the even older ORTHODOX Synagogue (on the street parallel) has been converted into a Cafe / pastry shop and pub ...

BALLET AND OPERA
For those of you still lucky enough to be in Bratislava on the Saturday after our game, The National Theatre is putting on the romantic classic Ballet of Giselle, at 7pm in the stunning old historical building.
On the Friday, they have the Opera of Don Carlo - but that is in the NEW BUILDING ...

I stand corrected 😉 But all signs show that harvesting was more widespread than every one would admit |

I think the lower demand for this is driven by a few factors.
1. Crack down on harvesting
2. Slovakia in October is less appealing than Croatia in June
3. We're effectively out of the running in the group

There was always massive demand for the first away game in a group even before
we were successfull.
2000 tix for this instead of around 1k or just over for the first 2.
As alluded to earlier in thread,Wales Away twitter reported up to
200 red wall members not allowed to get tickets for this after Croatia/Hungary?
Whatever,delighted to get tickets at stage 4 ,3 aways,totally unexpected.
Some of us might go by train all the way for a change.Cant fly direct anyway.

I know this is in jest, but seriously - no Wales 'fan' should be in Bratislava on Saturday night with us playing home to Croatia the next day. |
