So thought maybe a thread to brag about which tickets you got drawn for??

The window has now closed and we should know soon!!!

They're not going to be taking payment till the 27th so still a while to go before we know yet.
I applied for the England Wales match and the final.

Asked for three to Wales and Australia vs England but we will wait and see. Can probably only afford to go to one of them.

I'm in the ballot aye, we'll see.

NotAGolf · 1 Oct 2014 at 19:48

I applied for:
- Eng v Wal
- Eng v Wal
- Sam v USA
- SA V Jap
- QF1
- QF4
- Final

Only applied for the cheap seats though, and I know that all of these games were oversubscribed so will be going to a ballot. I therefore expect to get jaff all!

I got 2 semi tickets through the community programme (for rugger club members). I'm in the ballot for a few more Twickenham games.

Stinky · 10 Oct 2014 at 15:31

anyone got any from the ballot yet

NotAGolf · 11 Oct 2014 at 14:15

No news yet. We should know by the 27th as they're going to start taking money after the 27th.

Stinky · 16 Oct 2014 at 11:18

still nothing. I would have though people would have started to hear by now

tom_e · 16 Oct 2014 at 11:21

I don't imagine we'll hear until just before they take the money, so next weekend sometime.

Stinky · 20 Oct 2014 at 12:40

Getting close now!

PlacidCasual · 21 Oct 2014 at 21:01

Guardian link

Organisers also confirmed that anyone who applied for tickets will by notified of their results on Saturday 25 October and payment will be taken from payment cards from Monday 27 October.

From the same article:

The organisers received 650,000 applications for England’s Twickenham clash with the Wallabies – almost eight times the capacity of the south west London stadium – as well as 500,000 for the World Cup final on 31 October.

Total ticket applications were more than five million, which is a higher level of demand than for any of the previous seven Rugby World Cup tournaments. Ballots were run earlier this week for matches and price points where demand for tickets exceeded supply. Ballots were held for at least one price point in every one of the 48 matches.

Games that attracted the highest ticket demand apart from England v Australia, were other pool matches of England against Wales, the world champions New Zealand v Argentina and Australia against Wales, plus both semi-finals and the final.

Those who did not receive tickets in the ballots will receive priority when tickets go back on sale by the end of November. Full details of the November sale, including the dates, will be announced shortly.
