Okay, it's official - we are NOT getting a block of seats from the FFA - this is what we've come up with after talking about it for the last few weeks......
"FFA don't want to allow us to organise a block of seats, because they don't want to favour any particular group. That's fair enough - we all need to be in there together supporting the team.
We will be working on them though, showing them that all the supporters groups, and all people not associated with any particular group, are willing to work - as one - to create decent atmosphere.
We - that's all the people and groups - will present a proposal to FFA before the next round of qualifiers, showing that we are united and can come to some arrangement that suits everybody.
Hopefully this will be the precursor to a properly run Home End ticketing scheme run by the FFA. A proper fans scheme, possibly involving a points loyalty system, that we will all have a say in how it is introduced and run.
But that's for the future. Right now we need to organise ourselves for the upcoming matches - and we all need to follow the following instructions:
Important:
You need to have an MFF number to buy tickets on Monday at 9am.
DO NOT buy tickets online. You will be lumped with whatever the ticketek computer decides is the "best available" and it certainly won't be the best available.
You NEED to either go into a ticketek outlet or call them and speak to a real person, so that you can specify exactly where you want your seats.
DO buy your tickets as early as possible - ie 9am Monday morning.
Ghana friendly at SFS on May 23:
This is easy. Ask for tickets in Bay 23, as close to the back row as possible. Hopefully we can sell this whole Bay out very quickly on Monday morning.
China WCQ at ANZ (Homebush) on June 22:
You want to tell Ticketek you want to be in Bay/Section 119, in any Row from 26-35. FYI Row 31 is the back row of the bottom tier, while Row 32 is the front row of the top tier.
Iraq WCQ at Suncorp on June 1:
Bay/Section 332 is what you want - and we want to start filling it from the back rows first and then go forwards as each row sells out. I believe Row 27 is the back row.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS ARE THAT YOU SPEAK TO A REAL PERSON AT TICKETEK AND TELL THEM EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT, AND THAT YOU BUY YOUR TICKETS AS CLOSE TO 9AM ON MONDAY AS POSSIBLE.
