Here nice and early despite being made to almost totally strip by the French Police - who are typically hoping something kicks off.
Three rows in front - 4 lovely Chinese folks. Friendly as I am - I had a chat (one could speak English) - and they bought the tickets from a website (in China) for £320 each!!! They are in the regular away end with City tickets - not posh UEFA corporate seats.
They are told me they are not City fans - but love football and knew the game was on during their trip to Europe, so these were the only tickets they could find online.
I am here on my own, as my two mates fell just below the points for tickets, despite both being ST holders for more than a decade each.
I’m delighted to welcome anyone to support, or even just watch City, but not at the cost of depriving regular fans - and someone is making a total killing exploiting these tourists.
