stu0x Posted 4 September, 2016 Share Posted 4 September, 2016 Yes, and I did to get a Serie A ticket. It was print at home. And they didn't check my ID at the ground, though there's plenty of evidence to suggest that's an anomaly. Whether they allow people with English details to buy tickets for a European match... who knows? Logic says they won't. I've just registered, when you try and buy Europa League tickets you get a pop up which loosely (!) translates as...

How to do this is very simple : Enter below the TDT your number , your date of birth and follow the instructions .

Having had another look I don't think that the registration was anything to do with buying tickets for games, more just signing up for a general online account. I have made a trial run for the Hapoel game at Inter and I got as far as making the payment. From this it would seem that the Italian restrictions are dependent on where you live if you're an Italian citizen. If you live in the region of the opposing team then you need a fan card.

Over land and sea Posted 5 September, 2016 Share Posted 5 September, 2016 (edited) So whatever happens Valery is not available for any Europa League group match. Everyone else is available for selection. We could add Valery if we remove someone from the A list during the season but, as things stand, he is ineligible to play in EL. Same goes for about half the scholars and for Gape and Gazza (season long loans) and Pied (omitted from A list due to injury). Not sure about the other two loaned out players (Gallagher and McCarthy) as it depends whether we include them on the B list (not yet published). We may well include McCarthy as his loan is not season long. Edited 5 September, 2016 by Over land and sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRM Posted 5 September, 2016 Share Posted 5 September, 2016 Now that looks like an absolutely cracking away end! Agreed, quite a funny location for the TV studio as well , plenty of fencing to hang flags from as well, and it looks like that is the usual segregated away section so whatever that normally holds you'd expect Saints to get. For people worried about tickets for this one it is important to remember that where Saints run an official trip this include a ticket as part of the package , with the number of people already booked independently for this you may find you can qualify for a ticket by waiting for packages to drop to season ticket holders with fewer away games. Sparta Prague at home is on open general sale now and there are surprisingly loads of tickets available all around the ground, a lower than expected take up by season ticket holders. Especially high availability in the family area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may well include McCarthy as his loan is not season long. Point with Valery though was that he has been around the first team (pre-season) and we could have added him to the A List but have (presumably deliberately) chosen to omit him. Loaned out players are expected of course, and Pied is out for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparta Prague at home is on open general sale now and there are surprisingly loads of tickets available all around the ground, a lower than expected take up by season ticket holders. Especially high availability in the family area. Not sure you can use home attendance as a marker for away attendance. I'm not surprised that Hapoel and Sparta Prague aren't having the take up of Inter at home. They're not attractive clubs in the same way, and certainly won't attract the "floating" or "plastic" type fan that only goes to the big games. On the other hand Sparta away many will see as easy to get too, a great city for a **** up and relatively cheap. For those reasons it's going to be hugely over subscribed, and personally i think it's telling they haven't yet announced ticket details. I wonder if they're waiting on the sales for the Be'er Sheeva away game, then from there they'll release Sparta tickets based on those that travel to Israel as first priority. My personal guess would be that we'll have somewhere in the region of 990 - 1600 official tickets at Sparta (based on other teams that have played there), and probably about 2000 - 3000 Saints fans in Prague (based on the amount of people that have claimed to have booked travel already). Obviously that second number is based on anecdotal evidence, but i'd say that in the group of people i know about 100% have booked flights to Milan, about 70/80% booked flights to Prague and only about 20/30% to Israel. It's also - i guess - worth noting that the group i know by and large travel to away games in this country, with only a few that don't bother more than once every few years (all of whom have booked flights to Milan already).

sandwichsaint Posted 5 September, 2016 Share Posted 5 September, 2016 Hardly surprising Family Centre sales poor with 8.05PM kick off on a school night, game will not finish until nearly 10PM From a purely selfish point of view, as a travelling fan (300 miles a game) who can flexi out of work early, I was hoping for 1 or 2 of the home games to be 6pm kick-offs! Obvs we will get better crowds/atmosphere with the 20-00 kick-offs, just a shame families/kids will find it harder to take advantage of the cheaper tickets and seeing some new teams/players.

The9 Posted 5 September, 2016 Share Posted 5 September, 2016 Which can be self-fulfilling if ticket allocation is restricted to those who go to the most away games, primarily the younger, single male intent of having a 'good time'. Our group in Denmark was about 50% women, and I can count the actual yobs I know of who were there in single figures. Though that still makes them about 1-2%.

Two of our party of 8 are using this method but alarms bells are ringing with me. Why restrict the official allocation without enforcing strict Italians only in the home ends . As you say the easiest thing to do is give us a bigger allocation , therefore my guess is that they won't allow English credit/debit cards to buy home tickets , post to England or allow English address to buy these tickets . They are either stupid , don't give a shiete or will enforce home fans only rigorously .
