If it's a small handful I don't see an issue and I say that as someone who is missing out in ballots, etc. I have no problem with a small number - similarly I am an advocate for giving away a small number of home tickets to schools in ne4 area for nixxy. But she appears to have got incredibly lucky to attend the matches she has in such a short time. Nothing against her personally - its the system, the lack of transparency and apparent unfairness that's the issue.

Didnt realise there was for away games Then again nobody knows the breakdown of away tickets hence the anger from loads Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 This is my point. For the rights or wrongs of whether this lass should be getting these tickets, she’s literally only started on this FAB, and she’s already getting grief on SM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home tickets there is. I’m guessing she got them both “the old fashioned way” last season which ironically the club are clamping down on this season.

Also I’m sure like any club if you engage early enough with them and explain your circumstances and plans to travel they’d probably keep a couple of tickets to one side as and when they can. I can see why they would have one international representative. In fact the board as who looks like it’s been very well selected. The statement does her no favours mind. Hope she’s ready for the backlash 😆 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) At first thought it was PSG at home too, but reading again it clearly means PSG away?! Hope she wasn't in the away end! Edited January 8 by Anderson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) Tbf she's an NYC lawyer flying across the Atlantic for random football matches of a team she's given a shit about for a couple of years. Call me judgemental but she sounds like the sort of person with the kind of dough and 'status' to be shelling out for corporate boxes whenever she pleases. Doesn't make it any less shooty-in-the-footy of a choice by the club, like. The optics couldn't be much worse at a time when so many people are already fuming over ticketing.

Kanji Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 <shrug> would argue there are LOADS of fans like me who’ve followed us through the depths of hell from all over this world and I’m certain many applied.

The audacity of her thinking she is fit to represent us when she’s been a “fan” for two bastards years. Sam Fender tickets were like gold dust and this fucker is going on BOTH nights as well.

To be fair a load of them have had season tickets for years. So it's probably been fucked for years.

Someone else (like Kanji) who sat through Ashley, etc. should have gotten this role, but the ticket thing is almost certainly overblown. She's probably paying whatever necessary to brokers to get tickets. She's not, at least directly, taking tickets off those with loyalty points.
