No time to picket chapel street but It is crap - I can't get all this info in time so may have to guesstimate
That should be OK - there was similar stories about the Rugby World cup and in the end anyone could get in if they had a ticket.I think it's just trying to put people off.
A powerful documentary about the story of Hillsborough is to be given its UK TV premiere on BBC2 this Sunday – the day after a special public screening in Liverpool.
‘Hillsborough’ was produced and directed by Sheffield film-maker Dan Gordon and its factual consultant was Professor Phil Scraton – the main author of the Hillsborough Independent Panel’s report and author of Hillsborough – The Truth.
The two-hour film, which includes interviews with Hillsborough families, police officers and survivor Dan Davies, has been updated following last week’s inquests verdicts, having initially been ready to be screened in 2014.

Pretty poor state of affairs if the ticket allocation in this story is true
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/may/06/ju...
"Around 2,000 of Liverpool’s tickets will go to former shareholders who sold to Tom Hicks and George Gillett in 2007. As a condition of the sale to the club’s previous owners, the shareholders’ priority rights for cup final tickets was protected and the current owners, Fenway Sports Group, are unable to change the terms.
Seasonal hospitality members are also guaranteed seats. Only 47% of Liverpool’s tickets – just under 5,000 – fall into what the club described as the “general supporter allocation”
"Of Liverpool’s allocation 10% will go to matchday officials, players, former players and media, and 2% to contractual partners."

Yes thats pretty much spot on, my mates an ex shareholder and has the rights to the tickets but as he lives in Oz and the deadline was 32 minutes ago I couldn't use them. However from the next final on seasonal hospitality is only guaranteed for larger venues as we now have over 23000 hospitality seats up from 9000http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/may/06/ju...

I think UEFA's response to the criticism just about sums them up i.e. they like to give all member countries the opportunity to host finals and they see that as more important than picking big stadiums for finals. They also made some odd reference to not being able to predict the finalists and therefore the demand for tickets. That seems like nonsense, too, when you look at the teams in this year's competition from the outset.
There must be a huge choice of 50,000 plus capacity stadiums around Europe. No criticism of Basel but it's not an appropriate venue for the final of a European competition.

I understand they want to be inclusive and spread the venues around member states, apparently the last final failed to sell out, they cant guarantee a team of Liverpool's support will make the final.There must be a huge choice of 50,000 plus capacity stadiums around Europe.

Not UEFA's fault that G&H sweetened the deal with this ridiculous never-ending shareholder ticket deal

"With a stadium capacity of 56,000, a total of 44,000 tickets were made available to fans and the general public, with the two finalist teams receiving 9,500 tickets each and 25,000 tickets sold to fans worldwide via the UEFA website from 26 February to 25 March 2015 in four price categories: €130, €90, €65, and €40.[19]"
I don't think the G&H point is relevant in this context.
