I'm on the cup scheme have a season card and had since 80's, yet I ain't been told I have a ticket for the game.

What happens? Do you have to go into a ballot? What’s the point of the CL cup scheme if you’re not guaranteed a ticket for the final? Makes no sense.

It's a fiasco, but expected this. I tried to get a ticket on the official UEFA site and was constantly redirected because of my location.
I just hope City fans, people who support the club almost every away trip to have the priority to get the tickets, but with UEFA I have zero expectations that will happen.

I am trying to get a ticket via invite of one of the sponsors, or via media, but I would rather watch the game in the fan corner in Istanbul, or in a pub instead of sitting fuck knows where.

The only possible means of a scruff like me going with no points is official uefa hospitality which is open for sale to anybody right now. 6 grand in euros. If that included flights and a night in a hotel I'd consider it. But it doesn't, so fuck it. Tins by the telly for me.

So I have now had an email tell ing me my window to buy is 10am Tues, I have to sign up to uefa to get an access code, and see what tickets are left!! My mate has a Monday window and no guarantee I'll be sat with even though we're family and friends I should have stayed at home fucking clueless jokers.

Did you not get your access code last week - it was up to midnight monday through city? If you're in chumps league ticket scheme and / or a ST holder, I'd say you were guaranteed a ticket - no way we are selling 19K between cup scheme members then ST holders at those prices

This is on UEFA not city though - the fucking clowns

I know for Porto, UEFA released a batch after city sold out and so I'd be surprised if they did not do ithe same. Make sure you've signed up to their website and watch for updates

They did, I spent all fucking morning in their queuing system and as soon as I got in, I'd pick a ticket and when I got to payment, this ticket is unavailable. Kept happening again and again until it sold out. Gutted. I wish I had gone anyway as the atmosphere by the river looked amazing.

Same happened to me. I know at least one person off here got one through this method though. Like i said earlier, there will be spates albeit they may be the expensive ones

Just looked at the sales criteria and can see that after starting at 19K points on Friday, any ST holder on cup scheme can get a tkt from Tuesday. Be interesting to see whether we start again with ST points or they open it up to any ST holder next

I struggled now got a slot at last. I booed down the phone for 60 second it felt good

It will first be cup scheme and ST holders and then ST holders not on cup scheme

Was it simple to get? I'm trying to get one off my mate that can't make it but been hearing you need to provide passport numbers and ID etc

I really envy you younger guys being able to go to these finals, perhaps you could get an older guy a match program, I would obviously pay for this, would make me very happy.

You need the uniquw access code first. No fuss on the UEFA site - I got 2 tickets yesterday. I reckon we will see ST holders who are not in cup scheme get a chance midweek and then a free for all after that

If I am going to get a ticket to it, will get you one, mate. Keep the money for another pint when we are safe from relegation next year.

Wow so kind of you thanks so much

Remind me if you need one I stopped buying them years ago when they started selling outside

So My mate bought them on his access code. Didn't need our passports yet.

Got mine this morning, Cat 3 ticket.

Roll on Istanbul.... Small matter of rag smashing to be done first though.
