“It will depend on Liverpool reaching the final,” stated GAA stadium and commercial director Peter McKenna. “Fans will watch the game on big screens located on the pitch from the stands.”

Croke Park’s playing surface will be covered at the time for Bruce Springsteen’s concert at GAA headquarters on Sunday, May 19.

Truly pathetic allocation. 

 

[Code]

12.000 tickets for each finalist in the Europa league final?

 

Welcome £5000 touts tickets!

 

Its a disgrace. 

[VladimirIlyich]

Why is anybody surprised about ticket allocations anymore? It's been going on forever. Fans piss and moan but simply accept it.

[Code]

In my opinion, stadiums with less capacity than 65.000 should not be allowed to host either the CL or the Europa League final. 
 

Conference League final no less than 50.000. 

[TheHowieLama]

A quarter of the tickets are comps.

[an tha]

So 50% of total tickets to clubs fans for uefa cup.

 

And 58% of total tickets to clubs fans for european cup.

 

Laughable.

The “UEFA Family Ballot” is open…

…Anybody successful needs to adhere to the T&C that if we get there, you’ve got to provide me a ticket.

Nope. 
 

UEFA know they’ve got the supporters by the balls so don’t care. 
 

When people say hold them in bigger grounds / give bigger allocations, they’ll use the excuses there a EL Final a few years ago with really small away followings and it was half empty? Not Arsenal v Chelsea, think it was Spanish sides,  although holding it in Baku is laughable.

I don’t think anything less than 80k should hold the CL Final. I know that maybe limits the game to a handful of grounds but tough.

I would not really have any problem with that.

Nope but then loads of countries will complain they don’t get the chance to host it then…

Of course they will and quite rightly so. 

[Lee909]

Don't worry about ticket allocation it'll be moved to Saudi soon. A end of season final 4 or 8 tournament. 

[an tha]

That 12,000 will be closer to 10,000 by time clubs take out players/sponsors etc tickets and if us priority rights holders.

Why rightly so? IMO, they don’t have the facilities to host such a match.

There are only 7 stadiums in Europe with more than 80k capacity. 

France (cunts)

Moscow (cunts) plus there will be no games played there for the foreseeable future

1 in Italy, 2 in Spain, 1 in England and 1 in Germany.

 

It will be unfair to host the final in just 5 countries every year.

I alluded to that in my first post - not many countries have a stadium >80k. 
 

Think Stad De France is 80k as well, even though they are useless cheese quaffing surrender monkeys. 
 

>=80k or you don’t have a stadium to capable of holding such an event.

 

To be honest, how many finalists don’t come from those countries? Apart from PSG in COVID19, the last side outside those 4 countries to appear in a final was Porto in 2004.

 

It makes sense but it’ll never happen.

No problem only hosting in it England, Germany, Spain, France or Italy, the winner will probably come from one of these countries anyway. Less travel.

European Football since 1992 = a giant pile of shite.

[Ronnie Whelan]

Surely the practical thing would be to put the game in Croke Park, which is over 80k.

 

I personally have no issue with cities like Dublin getting big games. It's bad enough that UEFA have dilluted competitions where so many countries either won't make it into group competition, or are also rans if they do, without letting them get the chance of the biggest games. Better than Paris with dickhead police and a huge population of people who are seriously on the margins and who see fans as a target. At least in Dublin, their scals are basically the same as ours.

 

Uefa always fuck up the allocation. It's a story as old as time.
