@HuntyDJH Great decision 🐯

He’s magic you knowwww!! #hcafc

@mattstew100 @AdamCrafton_ @KieranMaguire Do we have to sell back via ESTC or can we list them on the FIFA resale market?

@AdamCrafton_ @KieranMaguire I'm an England fan with 62 caps and have restricted my trip to Group, L32 and L16 due to ticket prices. But now my co-traveller and I are now considering cancelling our attendance and reselling tickets. It's a rip off.

BREAKING NJ Transit confirm @TheAthleticFC report of $150 round-trip rail tickets to World Cup at MetLife Stadium. Alternative bus service is $80 (!) per passenger. Locals in area to be asked to work from home if possible to help flow of stations. nytimes.com/athletic/72054…

@gavstravels @WeAreFreeLions Do you know if we have to sell them back via ESTC or can we go through the resale platform?

@WeAreFreeLions Am sick of it now. When can we sell tickets we bought off ESTC? Not even booked flights yet if planes have fuel by then

We were initially told the prices would remain as standard, however this potential news comes as little surprise. Another day, another rip off at this World Cup. What on earth is going on?

@nectarsleep @BMT31121988 Piss poor!

@BMT31121988 Hi Benny! We completely understand how frustrating it can be to experience a delay with your refund—it’s really upsetting to have to wait for your own money. We have sent you a DM to gather your details so we can personally review this for you. ^aa

@nectarsleep worst company I have ever dealt with! Waited 20 days for my refund, called and was told it hadn't been put for processing by error. Asked for a manager to call me and can't even bother to do that. Shambles. Why should I wait any longer?

@HullCity Terrible performance, lacked energy, poor subs. We’re a much better side when we’re playing direct football like the first 10 mins today and how the goal came

Defeat at home. ⏹️ #hcafc

@Bricktop_NAFO No issue here, I’ve had posties bit by the smallest/ “oh it’s friendly, it won’t bit” dogs.

The horrific video footage of US Marshal kicking a small dog breaking its rib in Memphis Tennessee. The United States Department of Justice responsible once again.

🎉GIVEAWAY 🎉 With just under 50 days to go until England v Uruguay, we’re giving two lucky people the chance to win a signed England home and away shirt 👕✍️ To enter: ✅Like 🔁Retweet ➕Follow us Winners will be announced on Monday, good luck 🤞

@chrisdawkesITV @mwesterman1990 @itvcalendar @HullCity @yuhirakawa1314 @acunilicali Great stuff Mic, fantastic how everyone’s come together 🐯

It was a day 5 year old #hcafc fan Ronnie will never forget. We spoke to his mum @mwesterman1990 tonight on @itvcalendar about a wonderful gesture from @HullCity & @yuhirakawa1314 @acunilicali

@FlyingKiwisFC @TheSincilBanker @henrywinter No you can pick and choose

@TheSincilBanker @henrywinter Am I right in understanding you can't apply for a semi final ticket through your Member Association, without the Follow Your Team to all the group games and knockouts before?

“Two choices lie before you - will you demonstrate commitment to fans, and push FIFA to rethink this pricing? Or will you demonstrate complicity and do/say nothing?” Very strong email sent to FA board today about World Cup ticket pricing by one of England’s leading home-and-away fans, a top capper. Sentiments shared by many on England fans’ WhatsApp groups. FA may have to make a public statement on its position at some point otherwise the fans’ protests planned for the March internationals at Wembley could be even louder. In fairness to the FA, it did privately voice fans’ concerns to FIFA about the ridiculous ticket prices. Following widespread outrage amongst fans and in the media, FIFA made a partial U-turn with its new category of “supporter entry tier” of £45 for all 104 games. While a welcome step in the right direction, fans point out this will benefit only 500-600 England fans for their games – 10% of their allocation. Fans want more of the allocation to be “supporter entry tier”. “England’s loyal fans know that supporting our country, home and away, is not without cost,” acknowledges the fan in his email to the FA. “It’s factored in. It’s factored in when tickets/fixtures are released, and there’s a scramble to get booked up for trips to Wembley or those away games. However, it’s what we do for what we often cite as ‘the best hobby in the world’. However, FIFA have declared war on fans, treating our loyalty with disdain, whilst also plundering it for financial benefit.” FIFA emphasises that "as a not-for-profit organisation, FIFA reinvests the revenue it generates from the FIFA World Cup to fuel the growth of men’s, women’s and youth football throughout the 211 FIFA member associations", all for the greater good of the game. To which, the England fan said to the FA, “Let me be very clear - there is no greater good for the wider, global game that is served by attacking and eroding the loyalty of fans. “I like to think that when the players come over to applaud us fans after away games, there’s a genuine appreciation for what we do and the support we bring”. England fans want the FA to acknowledge that and fight for more tickets to be made available at more affordable rates. One of the frustrations is that a diehard England fan might have missed one game through illness or work commitments and so misses out on the £45 tickets and has to go for a more expensive option if* (*if etc) England reach the final. “The $60 to $4185 final ticket jump is still sickening for many,” the fan says. “But England potentially getting through to a final and not having a ticket is also sickening.” #ENG

@england_tic Thank you, I’m on 18 caps but currently just meet the 70% for Ghana for doing 2 aways. If I select CAT 2 instead of CAT 1 would I miss out completely if more members above me apply when I could have got a CAT 1?

@FishyladBen CAT2 down to CAT3 (lower price band)

The ESTC have issued guidance based on WC applications to date. Caveat that not everyone will have applied. Some may change their application after reading guidance. The biggest story is that the final is undersubscribed and anyone on 2 caps would get a CAT3. Summary 🧵

@england_tic On the application form if you apply for CAT 2 select to move down does that take you from CAT 2 to CAT 1 or CAT 2 to CAT 3? TIA

Summary: Caps Required to Secure a Ticket (8 Games) 1) England v Croatia (Group Stage) Category 4 guaranteed: 53+ caps Category 4 mini-ballot: 52 caps Any category guaranteed: 5+ caps Below 5 caps: Ballot / unlikely

@BGatesIsaPyscho On the charge

“We don’t like the cross on the English St George’s - you should replace it” “You are permitted to have a White flag without the crucifix” Muslim Inman living in the UK doesn’t like the English flag and says it needs to be changed.

@usanewshq We’ll have to replace the start at the top with a pigs head 🐷

Muslims gather together in the Town Square to TEAR DOWN a large Christmas tree meant for families to enjoy 😡 Anyone else getting tired of this?

@AvantiWestCoast @DaveAirCEO Avanti this is a terrible look for yourselves

@DaveAirCEO Hi Dave, sorry to hear about the issue this morning. If you were looking to make a complaint, you can do so here, and it will be looked into by the Customer Resolutions team - railhelp.co.uk/avantiwestcoas… - Mike

Dear @AvantiWestCoast You cancelled the 0721 this morning so my 14 yo son was on the 0821 New St to MK. (Already late for school). Before Coventry your train manager “Parmi” ordered him off the train because he was travelling on a child’s ticket and couldn’t prove that he was a child. I bought him the ticket because he is indeed 14. He called me, I spoke with the TM who was plain rude. She insisted that we bought another ticket or I send proof. I sent a message of his birth certificate. Since when does a 14 year old need to carry identification on them? Children do not have a licence, an NI card and certainly can’t travel with their passport. Shameful behaviour from your member of staff.

@EnglandOnOurWay Do ESTC members pay the same price as this or are FA allocations cheaper?

Scandalous prices

@cmfc1885 Is that right? I’m a ESTC member but joined after the last WC so assumed the prices would be the same like UEFA at Euro 2024? Trying to get tickets through fifa first of all as don’t have as many caps as others

@Matt0490 @HCMFC94 Football associations will be getting them cheaper.

I know it doesn’t matter to ESTC members but those general sale prices for the World Cup are a disgrace. Likely to be one of the worst World Cups ever I reckon.

@Keir_Starmer You just don’t get a thing do you 😂

Your children don't need brand name jumpers in order to succeed at school — and with this Labour government, you don't have to worry about breaking the bank just because it's the start of the school year.

@joshsenior3 Ahhh shame, got mine today as well

@FishyladBen Unfortunately not! This is for the home game in September

37 minute queue for home tickets against Andorra 🤯🤣 Some nation

🚨In China thousands of mosques are being torn down as Islam is now considered a mental illness. Is it time the rest of the world followed this?
