Quarter Final - 1st Leg
SL Benfica v Liverpool FC

To be played at the Estádio da Luz, Lisbon
On Thursday 1st April 2010
Kick off 20.05 hrs

Liverpool Football Club has received an allocation of 3497 tickets, 1403 lower tier and 2094 upper tier, for this All Ticket fixture priced at £28.50.

The Club has also received 6 wheelchair and helper tickets priced at £28.50 per pair.


Selling Arrangements

Tickets will be allocated as available and for as long as supplies last to qualifying Season Ticket Holders, Corporate Members and Members / Fan Card Holders who meet the following criteria:

Tickets will initially go on sale on Friday 26th March 2010 to supporters who purchased a ticket for ONE of the Away Champions League Group Stage matches or Away Europa League matches from season 20009/2010.

It is anticipated that a limited number of tickets will be remaining after the above sale. These will be available by Telephone only to All Season Ticket Holders, Corporate Members and Members / Fan Card Holders from 9.15am to 12pm on Sunday 28th March.


Telephone Sale

Tickets will be available on 0844 844 0844 (Overseas (0044) 870 220 2151). Bookings will require all Fan Card numbers to be provided and the applicants address to be confirmed.

Window Sale

Supporters must present completed European away application forms and the Fan Cards when applying at the Ticket Office.
Forms can be obtained from the Ticket Office or downloaded from our website: www.liverpoolfc.tv/tickets.


Postal Application

Applicants must complete a European Away Ticket Application Form; the Fan Card number must be quoted, and a return self addressed envelope and a daytime telephone number must also be included. Cheques must be made payable to Liverpool Football Club and include the Special Delivery fee of £5.65 (if applicable). All applications must be received at the Ticket Office by Thursday 25th March 2010.

If you wish to collect your tickets from the Ticket Office please state this clearly on your application form. You will be contacted when your tickets are ready to collect.

IMPORTANT PROOF OF TRAVEL INFORMATION

Liverpool Football Club is trialling new software that will allow supporters to register their attendance at away European games by swiping their Fan Card; this will remove the requirement for supporters to provide proof of travel. ALL supporters travelling to Benfica must present their Fan Card when requested to; failure to do so may result in the match being removed from your purchase history. The Club would encourage all travelling supporters to arrive at the ground early to allow plenty of time to go through the process. You should still use the match ticket as normal for entry into the stadium.

N.B. Tickets for future away Europa League matches may be allocated on the basis of using the data from previous away Champions League and Europa League matches from both the current and the previous season.

No refunds on tickets will be considered after Monday 29th March 2010.

Ticket Office hours

Monday - Friday
8.15am - 5.30pm
Sunday 28th March
9.15am - kick-off

If collecting tickets at the Sunderland Home match on 28th March we advise you arrive before 2pm.

Please note telephone booking lines will open at 8.30am Monday - Friday.


what is this new software?

No system is foolproof, and the head workers will no doubt find a way around it, but it's certainly a step in the right direction.

Just had the call from the TO. The bird said our stewards will be scanning FC's over there for POT before entry to the ground but she also said keep all your boarding passes just in case! Fuckin funny that is. If you give your tkt to your mate what's stopping them scanning your FC over there? Either system isn't scam proof IMO.

She also said there'd be a few hundred tkts on sale Sunday morning until 12.15pm for anyone. Cant see us taking more than 1000..1200 over there to be honest. Cant wait meself, roll on next week

I dont think the main issue is mate's giving mate's there tickets to go but people buying tickets and not travelling. Examples of this was Fiorentina, Unirea etc. all sold out but were half empty.

I agree mate with you totally. But there'll be double scanning, people who know stewards etc.... Lets wait to see this in action next week and then we'll know the score and how scammable it is. It wont effect me anyway cos I go to everyone so I dont give a fuck what system they bring out cos the genuine fans that go will be sound.

Got the call, no mention of any scanners or further sales. Still think there'll be a case where people will put in POT after the match and they'll accept it as they always do.

She told me there's a letter in with the tkts explaining this new system of POT
