The reputation the Bundesliga has of being cheap is in comparison with the Premier League, it’s not vastly cheaper to what we pay in Scotland. I was €30 to go to Borussia Mönchengladbach v Union Berlin in April. Which is the same price as the Fans First tickets and roughly the same as I’ll spend on Saints’ trip to Kilmarnock in a few weeks time. No question on the value for money though… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think behind the goals is very cheap although there is a lot of expensive tickets as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mental top flight Scotland is a similar price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question on the value for money though… The issue is definitely not with the 30 euro tickets. There are pitifully few Fans First tickets........really there should be 30,000 - 40,000 of those for the larger venues not a few thousand 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doulikefish Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) Got to remember that Uefa that set the prices the same Uefa that think they are being generous to fans by decreeing that away tickets in the champions league cannot be more than 70 euros Edited December 10, 2023 by doulikefish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 UEFA could have not done that and we'd still have away fans paying far more than €70, so I'm not sure why that's supposed to be a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elgin Macca Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Does anyone know what the tickets in this uefa ballot are for? As in is it un-bought tickets from the last one?, a set number kept specifically for this ballot? Or I read it could be just returned tickets from the associations which could mean it’s pointless applying for Scotland ones? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure un-bought ones were offered back out the following week, so it's not that. Plus they are also selling more knock-out round matches so it can't just be unsold association tickets. There surely can't be many unsold association tickets anyway, Scotland's were ridiculous prices and still sold out easily, I'd imagine that the majority of nations will easily sell-out and those that don't won't be far off. Unsold tickets will be added back into the pot for the overall ballot, but they must have kept back a chunk. Admittedly, I'm not really sure why. There is also the the 'Prime Seats' which weren't available in the last ballot, perhaps they were holding them back to see demand before deciding how much to rip off fans for them.

ElDiamondo Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Do we have a ticket swap thread? Not sure if or how it can be done without swapping phones or logins but i’m looking for 1 x Scotland v Switzerland in exchange for 1 x Scotland v Hungary 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 The link a few posts above to the Scotland's coefficient post on twitter explains the tickets available in the ballot (I've applied but it doesn't sound good) and how to swap tickets- you probably need to meet face-to-face to avoid being scammed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if or how it can be done without swapping phones or logins but i’m looking for 1 x Scotland v Switzerland in exchange for 1 x Scotland v Hungary Tickets sold via SSC can’t be transferred on the UEFA app, the option will be greyed out. With tickets being a QR code which is activated on the day of the game, its not possible to exchange a screenshot/eticket. I guess the only way you can do it will be to exchange logins for the UEFA ticket app, or use the phone the ticket is loaded on. This isn’t a 100% guarantee though, as the UEFA website states that ID/passport checks may be required upon request. Potentially they can check your ID against the details provided to UEFA/if the name is on the ticket? (Was this done at Euro 2020 anyone?) Surely they won’t go to the lengths of checking 67,000 fans passports pre-match, but then again it is UEFA.

I remember they didn't care about Covid status etc either after making a big song and dance about it before the games. Bag searches and QR codes scanned, that was it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Still Cat 1, Cat2 and restricted view tickets available for the opener for folk who signed up as fans of Germany. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Stupid question - apologies in advance. I was one on the lucky ones to get a ticket for the Germany game. Can I still enter the ballot through UEFA for more tickets for that game? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if there's any specific rule about it but I'd be wary of applying for more than 3 tickets in the public ballot so you don't get more than the 4 limit in total. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fifer Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 I submitted my ballot application a couple of days before I managed to get one ticket for the Switzerland and Hungary games, not sure if I should be cancelling my ballot application or not? It's still showing there just now, no error messages or anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
