Would the tickets be done via email in which you then print them off.

Nah i paid $41US for delivery and it says that a link to the delivery status will be available once it has been dispatched and i still have nothing. I can cancel the delivery of them and request to pick them up at a ticketing centre over there, i will probably do this i think...


Yeah do that mate.

It should be the holiday of a lifetime, not a time to be stressing and worrying.

Cancel the delivery, enjoy the excitement of waiting for the holiday, pick them up while your over there.

Plus I don't trust luggage handlers lol.

Ticket delivery has been a pisstake so far, I have tickets being delivered to Ireland, Australia and the UK and I'm only just receiving emails this week to say that the tickets are being printed and will be posted soon, even though initially we were told we'd received the tickets in April.

Getting very nervous about the ticket delivery as well now, because once they arrive in the UK and Australia I need them to be posted to Ireland in time for when I'm due to leave for Brazil.

I saw on another forum that a bloke in London received his tickets in the post today, so they shouldn't be too far off now.

I 'think' it has been confirmed that i can collect my tickets when i get to Brazil. One of my mates got an email about his being shipped this week and i still havent got one so hopefully i can just collect when i get there.

1-1 draw with South Africa in WC lead up game

We really are going to get thumped at World Cup.

But really it's a great effort just to be there, wouldn't think to many countries in the WC would consider football as the clear third most popular sport in its country (the USA would be one) but throw in the fact we would also be one of the smallest populations at the cup and its a real good effort

Yeah im really concerned.
That was a fourth string Saffer side last night, should of belted them. Plenty of those passes will be picked off by the Dutch and Spanish especially. Would think getting a point would be a successful tournament.

Yeah reality is we will most likley not get close in any of the games. Ange realisticlly will be thinking 2018 World Cup. Mind you, put in Jeninak and Bresciano and the midfield looks a lot better. Ange's game style will be great to watch though regardless of the scores as we do have some great young kids coming through the system now.

I copped a bit if a serve on here for saying we're going to get mauled at the WC, just after we qualified. Unfortunately, it seems fairly unavoidable. That said, there was always going to be some pain with a changing of the guard and we'll have to be patient whilst the next generation works their way up to the required level. Still better to go there and get pantsed than not be there at all imho.

well it was not me who gave you a serve. I have said this since we kicked the first ball in the qualifiers .

I will be very surprised if we score a goal at all .

The positive is we are talking, youngsters, rebuilds, changing of the guards and we are still making world cups consistently.

Who would of thought that 20 years ago,

i think it is a little easier now WHUFC ;) after we don't have to face a top 10 side from South America to qualify every time

If we weren't making it now then yes there is some issues.

So the tickets were delivered whilst i was over here in the US. Thankfully i have an awesome father in-law who was good enough to collect them and ship them to @lovetotalkfooty's place where i have collected them and have them in my hands now. Not long to go now!!

Kennedy and Rogic with big injury concerns, not worth the risk. Not sure about Wilkshere
