World Cup Tickets
Anyone else been looking at this?

First nightmare, ticket prices are 1000s of US dollars!!! They have a resale option for unwanted tickets from the early sale. I looked at one game and prices were from 1800 to 11500 US dollars!! I heard said they were expensive, but that made me think a 100, maybe 200, but 1000s! It's a piss take.

Second nightmare, group matches will be played across different cities in different countries and you will probably have to travel over a 1000 miles between venues for different group games!

It is just bare faced robbery. With no thought of the fans.
It is so sad what these money grabbing cunts are doing to every part of our game.

I really wanted to go, but cannot see it at the moment. I'll see what happens after the draw on the 5th Dec. Maybe it's a bit better through the football association...

It does appear to wind you up though
Hope you enjoyed the cricket 

 

Nah I just find it very weird that an English bloke would take the piss out of himself, a classical Aussie piss take of the English is knotted handkerchief, string vest, no teeth, don't wash etc.. And you use it as a stereotype for me because I'm English... When you're English yourself..it's bizarre like you're desperate to be an  Aussie bantering the English when you're not. 

Yeah I did enjoy the cricket, thanks for asking.

60yo poncing around in a string vest grinding your false teeth to the gums listening to music only remotely bearable if you are completely off your tits (man boobs)
Own it

Ha ha why do you keep making shit up because you're an English bloke supporting Australia which is true. 

No false teeth, no string vest (nobody dresses like that in clubs) definitely no man boobs and you don't have to be off your tits to like house music.. 

You know fuck all about me because you haven't met me, but some on here have and I'm nothing like that, it's very, very odd.. Especially you telling me to own it when you can't own what you are and have to deflect by making imaginary stuff up..

Better than lying to strangers on the internet.

Elderly junkie

Almost as strange as being sent to Australia and then being sent back to England as TOO criminal 
Offence - Being an elderly junkie with an appalling taste in music

That would be bad but none of it applies to me while on the other hand you being English and supporting Australia is true and odd... Nobody had to make that up.. As you were.

That's because you and your bent mates are too busy discussing Eurovision.

Nowt weirder than folk who travel everywhere to watch England play.

I did France in 2016 and would do another tournament that was easy to get to, and reasonably priced.

Did meet quite a few oddballs who didn't support a club team and were from places like Kettering, who follow England everywhere. Strange characters.

I've never met anyone at an England away game that doesn't support a Club. Not one.

Strange that.

The MetLife in the middle of summer sounds like the 7th circle of hell.

oh yeah 100%  - bracing for that and would normally avoid anything there like the plague

Going to England v Panama in met life stadium. Figure I may never get another chance and it’s right on my doorstep 

A no brainer.

I'm talking about those who literally go to every game home and away, including pointless friendlies and qualifiers.  

What’s different from doing that with West Ham?

That is strange, though not as strange as being English and supporting Australia at cricket 

And having a Scottish father but refusing to acknowledge being half sweaty!

Ta - although I'm not sure whether that means getting there or getting knocked out!

For reference - a ticket for the AFCON Final on Sunday is £32.

[Mex Martillo]

Hope England complete their part for you Ball.

[Fauxstralian]

I think tv at home will do most people who value paying their mortgage & eating
Was looking at the match schedule the other day and there are a decent number of 8pm & 9pm kickoffs 
Of course there are far too many teams & too many matches so pacing yourself & maybe coming at the round of 16 might not be a bad idea

[Mad Ferret]

A fool and his money are soon parted.

[On The Ball]

And ten times what tickets for every England game - including the Final - at Euro 24 cost IN TOTAL.
