FIFA = Thiefa?


I expressed my interest for a ticket for the Australia v Brazil match in Munich on The official FIFA World Cup site. You are placed on a reserve list in case tickets become available and you have to pay upfront the price of the most expensive ticket (105 euro).

2 weeks before the game FIFA emailed to say that I was unlikely to get a ticket and my deposit would be refunded within a month after the game. What a rort! I only reserved a month before the game, but many people would have reserved since January. I would be interested to know how many reserve tickets FIFA have been sitting on and making interest on during this time.
