How do "new fans" accumulate enough points to get tickets for these away games?

I started a thread on season tickets. Seems like a lot on here started in the sixties and seventies. Shame that those points were never added.

It's always been the same. I never go to aways now (no longer a ST holder) but years ago I used to go to a few particularly those around the Midlands as that's where I'm from. I recall only too well getting proper twatted from behind at West Brom by some wanker, apparently because I have a Midlands accent.

Probably an overnight super fan, we have had loads since the 2007 takeover.

More likely some sad twat who has got nothing in his life other than alcohol and football.

you deserved it

My first season ticket was 07, do you class that as a 'new fan' ? And I've got 11'500 points just got to work your way up the ladder

Was it as devastating as Bony's assault on my eyes yesterday?

How could he "assault" your eyes, he didn't do enough to assault anything, in fact watching on TV, it was hard to even see he was even on the pitch, as he rarely appeared on screen, he was anonymous he could have been an "extra".

Its quite easy when we don't sell out, as we haven't on many occasions this season.

and still there will complaints of the loyalty system.

It was not a newcomer. The lad doing the punching was old school. I seen him before, he was shouting bandwagon as he was throwing punches and kicks.

Tickets were on open sale for our end yesterday. I had to get a duplicate from the ticket office and others were coming in paying cash for our end

I broke them up. Don't know what went on before.

The elephant in the room is the rapidly expanding drug culture, that contributes to random acts of aggression, not just at City away games, but other teams as well.
We can all remember isolated incidents from the 80s, but nothing as consistently uncomfortable as this.
Mind you, in the 80s, if you went to the toilet, it was usually for a piss

Sad bastards who can't handle their drink, or cocaine with some.

 

[chaddblue]

They would have been sectioned then in the bad old days

Or maybe they wouldn't have been city fans to start with?

If you could be bothered. Many a hasty circle was formed on the terraces with a newly formed stream running down the steps!

Not sure you can blame this on new fans. I've seen it happen loads of time, even at home games well before the takeover.

Agreed, some of the older fans can be confrontational as well. Every club has its set of idiots.

 

[Cheesy]

you deserved it

Ram it up your hoop.

I witnessed two fans on the Kippax in 89 fighting over trevor Morley as a circle of fans watched on.

Proves the old maxim that some things are worth fighting for.

What did the runner-up get?

The winner got some poppers from his mate and the runner up got twatted with bananas.

It takes a real sad bastard to set out with the intention of fighting at a football match. Sadly every set of supporters in the football league is littered with the scrotes.

Is the correct answer.

I thought Raheem Sterling was the elephant in the room, so this must be the elephant in the stands. Which by reckoning leaves Bony as the elephant on the pitch.
