That was just verse after verse after verse. A decently written chorus would probably have (eventually) made it onto the terraces as our 'unique' Bolton song, something sadly missing from our home atmosphere. i dont think the guy understands song writing in its true sense. which is a bit weird in itself, considering he was playing and singing. good effort though.

birch-chorley Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 What a fucking farce Applied in 8 people’s names (me, Mum, Dad, Mrs etc) for 9 different games = 72 chances and got fuck all!

I don’t know of anybody successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I've done alright and know a couple of others who've got some here and there but appreciate we got massively lucky, there were 19 million applications. There may be a second ballot later in the year but not sure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birch-chorley Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I’ve wrote them a strongly worded e-mail, that will show them! I think my application was hampered by using the group ID thing Just a hunch but can’t get my head around not getting a single ticket out of so many applications baffling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applied for about 10 altogether and my missus mirrored my application so between us we got last Wembley group game, second Wembley semi final, and group games at Bucharest and Munich. Wanted loads more but just chuffed to get anything really. Mate of mine is lumbered with 250 quids worth of tickets for one match at Hampden! I think part of problem for some is they will only try to give you the entire number of tickets you asked for a particular game, rather than break the request down. So if you asked for say 5 tickets to match 23 and they only had 2 available, they wont say oh give them 2, they'd go to the next application for exactly 2 tickets. We applied for singles and 2 tickets each time at most. Edited August 6, 2019 by Marc505 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We applied for singles and 2 tickets each time at most. Your pal might need the Hampden tickets yet! If Scotland and England qualify, both are in group D and it’s a coin toss to decide if it’s Hampden or Wembley for that game We applied for 3 tickets each, 9 games, 8 applications = 216 tickets (mainly top categories), got nothing - I think that using the group ID killed us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another lad I know has got 4 tickets for Rome, almost certainly going to be Italy (paired with Azerbaijan who are bottom of group) what an experience that'll be. Its crazy the whole set up, was hard enough getting tickets for France 2016 but this has just gone mad. It's not over yet mate, re-ballot from returned/void/unpaid for applications might come good, then independent sellers nearer the time.

First semi final, that side of draw includes group winners from groups A B and F so potentially Italy v Germany. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
