Anyway are you sure it's only for people who brought tickets already?
Looks like a free for all for all Jets members.
It looks like a free for all for everyone. I didn't have to input my Jerks membership number anywhere.Quote:

I registered for four, even though I already have tix. I'm sure I can get a few people to go who weren't originally.
Has anyone received said freebies yet ?Quote:

Thought it was just me, thanks.
WLG IF they are giving away tickets at the rate they were offering they obviously are no where near a sell out so you should be able to cover your nephew getting in if needed on the off chance the email never arrives.Quote:

Wasn't the original deadline midday? This has Tinks fingerprints all over it…

I got the email.
4 x PDFs attached. They are a blank ticket. Seems weird but there's a barcode on it.
Just got my tickets too.
Received mine as well x4
If you're opening it on an iPhone, the tix will appear blank. They'll print fine though, from pc or Mac
Weird I know, but should set your mind at ease
Opening my tickets on a computer, they are definitely not blank.
Cool, I did open them on my phone.Quote:

Glad that there is 2 games to look forward to over the weekend. Someone needs to answer to my boss for my poor productivity this week by constantly checking the foz for updates.
A decent boss should have sent you off on paid compassionate leave as soon as Griffo was boned knowing full well the trauma of this would see productivity failingQuote:

$140 total for both Sydney and Newy packs - I am freaking cheering after hearing guys spending > $100 just for one ticket to the final now.
Apparently even though it is listed as sold out, you can still buy individual tickets from the AFC website for the final.
Anyone planning on attending the live site at Honeysuckle for the Final?
I was.Quote:

I don't believe they are counting freebies at other games so I would expect the freebies everyone got today by email don't count eitherQuote:

More than ever do we need Australian football to drive the fans to love this game as our home front offers to rip it out from us.
As I said before 3rd v 4th place games are a waste of time buying tickets early.Quote:

Football day: biggest football day in australia since 2005. Love it.

we will loose
This isn't the Jets.Quote:

Rather interesting feeling knowing I am going to the football today I care about the result and I believe we can win as well as lose and the whole thing is in the balance and could go either way.
Tuesday night I was adamant we would win so the nerves and fear were not there
Usually with the Jets I hope we win and believe we will lose.
Amazing what a degree of confidence in the coach and players having the ability to pull it off can do

Reports in the Australian media claimed that a movement was gathering pace within the AFC to throw Australia out.
Australia, which is hosting the 2015 AFC Asian Cup, is set to face Korea Republic in the tournament final in Sydney on Saturday night.
The speculation was centred on quotes from Sheikh Salman in the Dubai-based newspaper Al Ittihad, with other Australian journalists claiming on Twitter that many Middle Eastern nations were annoyed with Australia's perceived lack of commitment to Asian football.
The Sydney Morning Herald quoted Sheikh Salman as saying: "There are indications that prove that such desire exists among the confederations of west Asia to evict Australia.
"But I also know that the Arabs are not the only ones who are not convinced that Australia's membership in Asia's football is feasible."
However on Friday, Sheikh Salman claimed his quotes had been "manipulated".
"I'm really stunned with the timing to bring this topic out. It's a false topic," Sheikh Salman told the Herald Sun.
"To read a story like this is really sad because there's no truth in it.
"The success of this tournament has exceeded our expectations. I won't let a story like this affect the success of the tournament we had in Australia.
"We have to put this record straight. It's been manipulated in a way to make it negative."
To be expelled from the AFC, a member association must meet one of four criteria and then have a three-quarters majority vote to throw them out at the organisation's annual congress.
The grounds for expelling a member association are: failing to fulfil financial obligations to the AFC; seriously violating its own statutes, codes, rules, regulations and standing orders or those of the AFC or FIFA; it ceases to be the legal football association in its own country; or it ceases to be a member of FIFA.
Sheikh Salman claimed Australia's hosting of the Asian Cup proves its legitimacy.
"It's been a great tournament and it's thanks to Australia, the FFA and the Local Organising Committee," he said.
Wish Tinks was there to meet old Sepp and realise how miniscule he is.....
glad he isn't, he might pick up some tips on how to continuously manipulate things to your own advantage.Quote:
