Villarreal 2062

Augsburg 1158
Sion 564
Kazan 400
Bordeaux 2005

Going off that 4 should be guaranteed for Seville, but after the way tickets sold out last season in the league it doesn't always work that way.  There's bound to be a bigger percentage of complimentary tickets in the Champions League than Europa.

They used the last champions league campaign for the qualifier as well, which is worrying me.

[Trev20]

Try Zagreb or Vienna.

Yes exactly - then get the train down to Maribor. It's just over 2 hours from Zagreb and 3 and a half from Vienna.

[King Kenny Play]

I booked stansted>Seville for £60 return on ryanair.
if all gone try malaga, train is 2:30 bur check connection etc.
High speed train from madrid etc

Gatwick to Faro £53 return Mon to Weds...then car hire cheap!

[redhot-robbie]

Hopefully someone can help?  Got guaranteed home games as not missed a European home game since 2000 but never been to an away. It's my younger brothers 30th in December and thinking of going to Seville game in November. No credits so no chance for a normal ticket and would never use an unofficial tout but for this I would sell myself to the devil and pay for a match break. Does anyone know if the club does away CL match breaks?

Club stopped doing Thomas Cook match breaks some years ago - they were too expensive compared to DIY travel so weren't selling and not as much of a money spinner as Cooks would have liked.

There isn't an exchange on here for european aways.  But with a big allocation - and Seville will probably be quite a big one - it seems there are usually some who take a mates' spare with them to pass on.  We're always sorted on our own credits  - but from what I"ve seen spares seem to swap hands on trains and in pubs before the match, and usually at face value or less.  I wouldn't leave it until the game - although you might get lucky outside the away end.

anyone got any links to Decent trains etc from Malaga to seville

Flying into Seville and back from Faro. Just hoping 3 credits will be enough.

Pretty sure most of them sold out all the time, especially the big games! Hopefully the club give Thomas Cook an allocation for travel as they are usually the best for European match away days

Trev has always been helpful - he was just driven away from these boards for a short while following the debacle with Max

400 Kazan
564 Sion
1158 Augsburg
1695 Basel
2005 Bordeaux
2062 Villarreal
2150 Ludogorets

3117 Man U
3416 Dortmund
3669 Real Madrid
4019 Beşiktaş

Hoffenheim was sold on the above basis for 2286 tickets. With a similar allocation for Sevilla, I would expect it to be the same. 7 guaranteed, then 6 and downwards until sold out. Think this will be the most popular one.

However, Moscow and Maribor will be played by then. So they may ditch 14/15. But given the small numbers who will travel to Moscow and small allocation at Maribor, they won't change anything.

I can see them using only Moscow for Sevilla to start with.

I will be a bit pissed off going to Moscow and then missing out on a Sevilla ticket

[Max999]

Agreed. Sion was done on Kazan wasn't it? Was Kazan done on Bordeaux?

[Craig S]

I think Moscow with proof of visa / travel will be used first for Sevilla and Maribor*.
*Unless more than 800 go to Moscow.

[kratos]

Anyone know what the Moscow ticket info may look like in terms of allocation?

[kalle-anka]

Yeah Im in the same boat... cant see anyone attending x amout of match 3 season ago get first dips before people that travel to Russia.

I guess you dont need your visa once you buy your match tickets?
But you need to send a copy of it after the match to get the credit is that the way they did it for Kazan?

[kalle-anka]

Looking at the possiblity to drive from Finland, how do you send in proof of that =)?
But I guess you get your visa stamped/activated or someting?

[Billy Elliot]

No idea, but even if it's small you'll need a visa, etc. to get a ticket.  Anybody who wants one and jumps through all the hoops will get one.

When we played in Kazan you needed to send Visa and other evidence afterwards or lose the credit.  Sure if you sent evidence of flight to Finland with Russian Visa, that'd be enough to not lose the credit.

[Purple Red]

When do the tickets go on sale for members? Wouldn't mind a trip over for the Sevilla game but can't find anything on the official site yet.

Yeah one would think that should be enough.

There won't be a members sale for the any of the euro aways unless you have previous euro away credit's as stated in all the posts above.

[dundeejoe]

is this a legit site ?
https://www.visitrussia.org.uk
and will the £25 option be ok ?

[Tiger Tony]

I would be a bit pissed off someone with only Moscow getting a ticket before me when I have 10 of the last 11 aways, and have actually been to 9 of them. Including Ludogorets and Bordeaux when there were loads bought for credit only. Also Istanbul when 4100 tickets were sold and I was one of 400 maximum that travelled!

Also went to Moscow for Anzhi in 2012. Didn't get special preference on any future aways for that. So why the fuck should going to Moscow only allow someone to jump the queue for Maribor and Sevilla?!

Euro aways have always gone back to the first away game of the season, if subsequent capacity is greater. So it is nailed on anyone going to Moscow will get first shout at Sevilla (unless Moscow sells out, unlikely).
Maribor is different, as smaller, but they may do what they did with Kazan/Sion then drop down credits. Purely because the stamped visa is only definite proof you actually went. You will be fine with 10 from 11 anyway.

that's why I think I must go to Moscow. Can only do 2 out of 3 financially, but If I dont do Moscow, I might not be able to do Maribor, so the snowball effect would start.

3 nights sorted from 19th for Seville - hire car from Faro drive and stay in Seville. Flight back to East Mids on the 21st.

Is 7 from 11 likely to be OK for Sevilla? Can't make Moscow or Maribor.
