    Fair do's to those Welsh fans who shelved out for the 'Follow Your Team' option from the outset. Must be in dreamland.

    Waste of time. Got in quickly but spent 15 minutes trying to buy tickets which weren't there. Got tickets into baskets 10+ times but then no availability

    I've done two games already (Slovakia and Norn Ire).

    For two of us to go to Lyon would be so expensive it's just not viable.

    tickets 2 x 495€
    Eurostar 2 x £328
    Then add two nights hotel, and return train cardiff - london, and beer money.

    Probably looking at least 2K for me and my lad.

    So, like last night, it'll be a take away curry and a gallon of beer.

    After going to Bordeaux I felt a little left out during subsequent matches out so I've decided to go to Lyon. I got a ticket at 165 euros. After Eurostar and hotels the cost is £800. Well worth it.

    What a shite website, between the QF & SF I must have spent 4+ hours trying to get tickets. The worst thing is the tease. I've had cat 2 & 3 tickets & pressed the buy button for both rounds, only for error unavailable messages to come up. If I can't get tickets, so be it but to make me think I've got some and then haven't is bollocks!

    I too had similar issues for Russia tickets but was lucky enough to swap Slovakia tickets which I'd bought for that reason.

    As you say, the provess makes it 10 times worse, it's like Chinese torture.
    You try to log on a few times early til the portal finally opens then get all excited when you are in the queue.
    The red bar gets bigger as the 15minute countdown begins. You check every minute for what feels like an hour then yay! you're in.
    You fill in the boxes which take 3 times as long as nervous tension makes you fumble the keys. Shit! typing error. You scroll through looking for where the mistake is. You put it right and there are only category 1 tickets avaliable, less than 250 left.
    The cost is way more than you were willing to pay but hey, how often are Wales at a major tournament? **** it its on the credit card (which you have paid off and is only for emergencies) so no problem.
    Pess ENTER.... computer says NO!!

    Aaaaarrrrgggghhh!!!!
