How known they make themselves will depend on how the game goes I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they all just got in sharp and decided to get together in whatever part of the ground they were in, displacing home fans? Whatever it sounds like some fairly catastrophic failures by Man Utd, both in the selling and on match day. Think they were generally spread out but congregated together to celebrate after the Final whistle when the home fans had departed. Certainly from the photo's I've seen it appears the Turkish fans were dotted around in 2s and 3s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This dogshit ballot & resale system was introduced with a claim it would make it “fairer” for more NUFC fans to get match tickets Bu it’s actually made it easier for touts to get tickets and sell them to whoever is willing to pay their daft prices And 555 Dortmund tickets are advertised via touts right now, which indicates that the system is fucking shite Edited October 14, 2023 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infatuation Junkie Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Sell season tickets. sell 3x memberships of the seats available outside of season tickets on a first come first serve basis. If you snooze you lose. Then ballot them. Ticket loads onto your membership card at a loader any time within a week before the match at certain points around the city. Scanning your ticket then scanning your membership card and only that card it loads onto. Have I just fixed the routing issue. And I’m a dumb ass taxi driver Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will certainly happen at SJP in the not to distant future. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67106928 It happened to us a few years ago when Liverpool came and they got that dodgy late winner. Ashley had sold loads of tickets in the 1892 club to Liverpool fans and got away with it by classing it as corporate tickets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

First they came for members…next season it’ll be ST holders. https://x.com/jonjonufc90/status/1712481530214551906?s=46&t=vdsN_AHh11-g3YCkSAx-2g I said this a little while back. Loads of our fans with the ‘fuck you for not being a season ticket holder’ attitude, not realising that sooner or later they could be fucked over when season tickets top £1k minimum and they are the ones being ousted.

You can see 99% of the pitch and the other 1% with the minimal of effort. If you want restricted views you should’ve tried Stamford Bridge behind the dugouts when they used to put the away fans in there! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
