The SSC have announced that they've been allocated another 2,000 tickets for the Wales V Scotland match on the 14th November. The extra tickets will mean those on 1 point will be entered in to a ballot for tickets.
This also means those on 2 and 3 points are now guaranteed an official SSC match ticket and will gain a match point if they attend.
It appears the extra seats are in section 122 and 124 as these have now been marked as "sold out" on the Cardif City website.
This news has come a bit late for those who bought home end tickets on WTuesday when they whent on public sale.
