I think someone's telling you porkiesI was talking to Utd fans who go all over Europe and apparently there hooligan copper brought this idea in for them because of his hatred of touts and the amount of money that pass hands.Utd have more people who are prepared to buy tickets at outrageous prices on the Black market.
Now this said Copper is now a Security man who as just been hired by Manchester City football club and has his sights on becoming Chief of Security, apparently he likes to have a Dictatorship. Utd fans stood up against this ticket scheme by all threatening at the the Hotel not to receive there tickets and when they got home there were all going to put in a claim for a refund which would of brought bad publicity.
The scheme was soon SCRAPPED.
correctI don`t think liverpool are doing this at Villareal.So it has to be the clubs choice and not authority controled
You will have no problems, it's almost expected to have fans from other clubs in the home end, like many have said behave and respect them, I did it last time we play there and was in general received well by the Madrid fans, I was sat next to a local who went to Manchester uni and lived on the curry mile, we talked of our favorite curry house.Got one sorted in the Home end - anyone got any info on any possible issues getting in at the turnstiles?
Heard if they ask for ID show your driving licence as its similar EU type design. Hoping it should be less full on than the scare stories about getting in the home end at the Parc des Princes. Think Bernabau is more used to tourists anyway.

Enjoy your time in Madrid it's a great city use metro it's brilliant for getting around.
They should introduce something similar for domestic away games too.
