No way would I go all that way to sit in a bar,

No, me neither 👀

This will be like Lile where we took thousands, despite an allocation of 2500.

It’s my birthday the weekend after, so I’m going to watch the match in Bruges, spend a couple of days elsewhere (Brussels/Ghent) then the wife is coming over for my actual birthday as she wants to do Bruges.

I’ll be going with my son and he’s having my ticket and I’ll watch in a bar unless I can source a home end ticket. Really looking forward to it.

You'll likely be able to source a ticket. I picked one up for the good lady out in Bern.

There were loads of empty seats by the looks in their first home game vs Dortmund

What evidence do we have that we’ve farmed out a tonne of tickets to Corporate?

Also don’t Corproate and GA+ have to have the same criteria as us normal GA folks.

I do think this is sometimes thrown out there  when people miss out, but surely if any GA+ get tickets, they are ST holders in that area and have the required points from going to away games previously, they only thing that have done is potentially jumped the ST queue last year, which they may have been on for he waiting list anyway

I know a company who spends £80k a season on an executive box and they do not get tickets for away games as part of their package.

I said the same a few posts ago, *unless* they ring fence some for corporate. Was there an allegation of that? Any evidence? Lions clubs have not had tickets.

Yes, but all the lost Blues fans will be getting a ticket to support Brugge in this match.

It’s the same criteria rules for Corporate and GA+ as it is for us in GA as far as I’m aware. I think we calculated through the seat map at Bern that we had about approx 10% of supporters who were GA+ and Hosp who met the criteria. Using the same rough call that would be about 140 tickets for this one.

Sure. So my question is if they ring fence for GA+ so eg they get further down the tiers.

Ah I see what you’re saying. I don’t know in all honesty.

When it's tickets in advance, such as YB or Spurs, there's areas that we can't select.  I doubt very much that they're allowing GA to select any of those if GA runs out and GA+ is still working down the criteria.  To do so would be complicated.  Without asking a GA+ person, I doubt it's possible to know for sure.  For Brugge there was no visibility of seats as it's collect on the day but there were separate buttons for GA, GA+ and if I remember correctly CAT1.

Went to all the home European games last year but only one away (Ajax). Was hoping I might get one for Bruges but it was sold out well before my category. Gutted but not surprised.
Will be over there anyway because it's a fine city.
Any advice on how to obtain a home end ticket when I'm over there?

If you find out, let me know please!

They are not selling to people who didn't register before 31/08 on their website. Had a quick look on the secondary market earlier and cheapest tickets are 135 quid each.
