statement from the Football Supporters Europe association on all 3 euro final allocations with the Europa league highlighted as a concern

Football Supporters Europe (FSE) today shares its serious concern that the finalists’ allocations at the 2024 Europa League Final in Dublin will reach just 50% of the stadium’s total capacity on the day. Further, FSE calls on UEFA and the local organisers to do right by the supporters and increase these allocations.
Some encouraging progress has been made in recent seasons following repeated calls to do so by FSE.
The 2023/24 UEFA Champions League Final at Wembley will see the largest finalists’ allocation for the competition in a decade (58%), while for the Europa Conference League Final in Athens, 66% of tickets will go to the finalist clubs’ supporters, which is an all-time high for any UEFA club competition final.
Despite this, a consistent approach across all finals is still needed. A paltry 50% of capacity for Europa League finalist clubs is, simply, not good enough and falls well short of FSE’s demand to provide at least 66% of tickets for all European finals to supporters of the teams involved. Fans of competing teams need to be given clear priority over public sale options. Based on previous experiences, a higher allocation of tickets for general sale will significantly fuel black market ticket activity, exploiting fans’ loyalty in the process.
FSE Executive Director Ronan Evain said: “While UEFA has made steady progress over the last few seasons in recognising the importance of offering a high number of tickets to the finalists’ most dedicated supporters, it is extremely disappointing that the UEFA Europe League Final in Dublin will represent such a step backward. We urge UEFA and the local organisers to reconsider their ticketing policy and offer a significantly higher allocation to the two finalist clubs. A significant increase needs to be made in line with FSE’s position of a minimum of 66% to do right by supporters. “

Scousers seem to be able to increase their allocation by simply making their own. If the worst occurs and you don't get in you can still sue UEFA for 'mental trauma'. Every cloud and all that.
 
As with Istanbul just shite how one category can go in different tiers. I understand not choosing your specific seat but I should be able to choose what category you want in what tier. You shouldn't have to wait for the lottery to see if you get given which tier you want, wouldn't even want to go if I end up in upper and can't swap.

I'd even rather them have different price scales if it meant at least you had a general idea of where you was!

They can't "guarantee" but i would say that the vast majority will get one. Total guess: we have about 25K on the CL scheme. This is one for the Seat Counting hierarchy. If we get 25K allocation the club would cream off a good 5K for staff and corporate.

I would say that, looking around on CL nights, that 25k is overstated. I'll see if I have the figures when I get home.

‘Hospitality’… and they are just as much entitled to a ticket as anyone. I am an ‘Hospitality’ member in Joe’s and go to every home game plus a few aways (including Euro games). Corporate clients of the club are different and I agree with the anger around hem.

Try 5 rows from the front stuck right in the corner for the same price. At least you would have been able to see all the pitch...

What is shocking about that is how many are Cat 1 & 2.

Never mind the £610 I wouldn’t be paying £430 either, fuck that.

Thing is compared to any other you might go to it’s relatively cheap, no flights or hotel to pay for, just a car ride away. However my lovely wife has booked us a holiday over that week, so if we get there I’m fucked, cheers love!
