The Email That No Irish Fan Wants To See

UEFA have finished allocating the tickets to Ireland's EURO 2016 games this morning. We hope you have had better luck than some of us:

If you have yet to hear anything from UEFA, it's not a bad sign. Pretty cold-hearted on UEFA, they didn't even have the decency to refer to us in name. 'Football Fan' is about as generic an appellation as it gets.

Some have been more fortunate than others:

So I have tickets for the Euro 2016 quarter-final when we get there. No group games though.

'Partially successful' sums up the entire history of the Irish team rather pithily.

We hope you got the tickets you applied for. In the case you did: any spares?
