villa4europe Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 last i heard england hadnt sold out the 2k official allocation vs tunisia, looking like the worst attendance from england fans for a long time of course the media story will be the big bad russians and their violent racist ways, nothing that i've seen is being made of the logistics, games in volgograd, nizhny novgorod and kaliningrad...honeymoon hotspots, no direct flights to any of them, just the 5,000 miles, its an awful group to be in for a travelling fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Panama's red, blue and white eclecticism promise to make them a surprisingly interesting watch this tournament, but Tunisia's bold design should let to them being a tournament surprise package. Belgium's budget effort at copying Germany may be good enough to see off Panama, but not Tunisia, while England will be simple but boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 My memory from the euros each FA gets a really small allocation, not sure if they can apply for more, stadium holds 45k, fifa will give a % to their mates, they then give a % to locals, if its like UEFA they then give a large % to a raffle like draw for neutrals which is done before you know who is playing bit once you know who is playing has all kinds of ticket exchanges, if you dont meet the FAs away fan criteria then thats where youll get a ticket from So we havent "sold out" but there will probably be more than 2k england fans there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The game in kaliningrad should be a bit busier, bigger game vs belgium, 2 and half hour drive from gdansk and im not sure how russian the area is due to its location, might be a bit more like lithuania and Estonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
