A s**t away end full of tourists

Buying unsold tickets in the home section is completely different to buying tickets in the away section when they are limited to 3k, price capped and criteria to buy them based on loyalty etc.

I’m guessing, but I’m 100% confident I’m right

Those 8 Barcelona fans haven’t got 1 genuine away loyalty point between them.

But they’ve got a Catalan mate or Catalan mates at City.

Yes, get. Sorry.

I think I’m half pissed from just posting in the same thread as you.

Come on, I’m backing you for another 8 pints at least.

Those Barca lads will be 20 pints in each by now. They are making you look like you are the day tripper.

I’m sure that the clubs get together and take it in turns to twist the screw on the legacy fans, Spuds removing concessions, get away with it then the others do it

Once we "legacy" fans are either minoritised or dead they'll need to super league it to keep the cash flowing. It's inevitable, it will essentially be basketball. There are more eyes in Africa and Asia now and there always will be, they aren't watching a third round tie to Norwich are they.

They will be on the Rioja.

Drowning their sorrows because City lost 0-2 at Liverpool.

No City fans are feeling entitled, trust me. Ask any City fan. When you see 8 Barcelona fans, wearing Barcelona shirts, in the City away end at Liverpool, it’s bound to irk City fans in general, never mind City fans who want a ticket, but can’t get an away ticket, never mind an away ticket at Anfield.

I understand how fans feel when they see that. I've been at away games and seen similar. A midweek game at Arsenal in very early January back in 2011. There were two South Koreans in Arsenal scarves trying to get in with tickets in our end. They were politely but firmly told to speak to stewards.

There was another game, can't remember which ground, where an Asian couple were sat in front of me, and who disappeared after 30 minutes never to be seen again.

I was at United a few season ago. A lad wearing a half and half scarf came into the toilet. A few seconds later the half and half scarf was in the piss trough. And it stayed there, getting wetter and wetter.

Its no wonder we get the piss taken out of us.
Its only going to get worse.
A Chinese fella asked me if I could move to my left a bit last week as I was blocking the view of his camera filming the game.
I think he understands now what.

He's probably from Altrincham;-)

You have to accept it's OK if that's the case. It's not OK to behave like a dickhead in the away end and draw attention to yourself like those people did. People need to accept that, currently, supply for a game like today's will never meet demand. We could easily sell 10,000 tickets for this game but we only get 3,000.

I'm somewhat amused at the relatively recent sense of entitlement among some fans, demanding that season card holders should get all the away tickets. It's less than 20 years ago that we often only took half the away allocation because the club had to pay for them and didn't think they'd sell.

Hospitality customers are also season ticket holders, and sponsors will always get tickets. If the club is taking tickets away from the 60% they say get allocated to general admission season card holders, then that's something to get angry about, I've also said before that hospitality ticket holders get far more tickets pro rata than the likes of us. I'd like to see a level playing field in that respect.

With respect I’m one of the ones who did take up the percentage of the away tickets twenty years ago when we failed to sell out but has since been priced out along with loyalty points been taken away . The club has failed many loyal fans .

There was at least 20 of them. At least. Saw them in the concourse after they'd just walked in
