1. Can I buy tickets for my whole group and forward them?

Only through a club's own transfer function, and several clubs restrict how many tickets one account may hold.

2. Do children need their own ETA?

Yes, every traveller needs an individual authorisation linked to their own passport, including infants.

3. Can I wear away colours if I am sitting in the home end?

No, clubs routinely refuse entry or eject supporters wearing visiting colours in home areas, without compensation.

4. Can I do a stadium tour on the day of the match?

Generally no, tours are usually suspended on matchdays and often the day before, so book them for a separate day of your trip.

5. Why can I not watch other matches on TV at 15:00 on a Saturday?

A domestic broadcast blackout runs between 14:45 and 17:15 on Saturdays to protect attendances across the English game.
