Wales fans who have been to the most home and away games have the best chance tickets for next summer's Euro 2016 finals in France, the Football Association has confirmed.

Chief executive Jonathan Ford said Uefa is handling all of the ticketing arrangements but would receive its membership database.

Wales qualified for their first major tournament since 1958, despite losing to Bosnia on Saturday.

The draw for the finals is in December.

Uefa has already held a random ballot of tickets for all games but once the draw is made there will be another chance for the supporters of the 24 competing nations to cheer on their team.

"Uefa manage the ticket allocations in this case and that's why we've been very keen to ensure that everybody uses their FAW membership programme which has a points-based system," Mr Ford told 91热爆 Radio Wales.

"You earn points the more matches you go to both home and away.

"Ticket details will be released by them in the coming months. Our membership database is going to be analysed and those people who have got more points are more likely to get tickets."
