Almost A Quarter Of World Cup Tickets Are Unsold!
March 26th, 2010 | Author: Ash
Surprise surprise, 650,000 of the 2.95 million tickets available for the World Cup are still unsold…
FIFA also revealed that it is probably the first modern World Cup that will not be fully sold out.
Now 330,000 of the 570,000 tickets sent out to the 31 competing nations are being returned unsold – 58%.
Even for England, the best supported team, 1,000 tickets among the 29,000 allocation were not taken. And the FA needed a three-month extension from Fifa to shift 28,000.

Just goes to show that Sepp Blatter is a fucking idiot when it comes to his policies for FIFA. His rotation policy on World Cup hosting has quite clearly failed here and his stance on goal line technology make him a complete joke. Put in charge someone at FIFA who actually knows about football please, not some fucking clueless businessman..
