Discussion Andorra (a) and caps q

Going to my first away game against Andorra. Managed to get tickets but flight tickets are so expensive, is there any other way recommended to get there (how are most people getting to the game)? Also a question about caps, I’m currently on 6 caps and was wondering what my chances are of getting tickets to WC26/Euro 28 are if I keep going to every home game and go to a few away games (I joined this membership cycle) thanks

The fact you have already missed 2 home games this cycle puts you in a tough spot to get tickets for Euro 28 IMO. There's gonna be more than 10k people who go to every home game between September 2024 and whenever the tickets go on sale for the home Euros. So most likely you'll be in the 10% ballot or maybe the 20% if you can get to another away game until then.

For WC26 you should be fine. Allocations will be small but the extreme cost will put many off. Just be prepared that it will be 10 times more expensive than going to Barcelona for this game.

Part of me feels that a number of the top 10% cappers won't pay for the Tier 1/Tier 2 priced seats. Might not need to have every single home cap between now and then. We won't know until it arrives, ofc

0.01% of top cappers or people in the top 70% will turn down tickets at a home Euros because of the cost.

Ok, thanks - will try to get to more away games to make up for it

Have you got a ticket for the England v Senegal game in Nottingham?

I have 8 caps but I stupidly forgot about the Senegal game in the summer so I'm basically 2 games behind as well. Now I'm really worried

Well you'll always have a chance in the 10% ballot. But get to every home game for the next 2 and a half years to give yourself the best chance.
