In my team games, Rapid Bucharest, we have a group of fans from Nottingham Forest who comes quit often. We are very proud of this, we speak to them, drink togheter, just enjoying a football game togheter. Make them feel as confortable as possible.
Yes to home games, imagine how you would feel if they took a large chunk of your away allocation causing long term fans to not be able to go.In my team games, Rapid Bucharest, we have a group of fans from Nottingham Forest who comes quit often.

I read it all. Foreign fans can only come when holidays, like now. They can t come in The midle of The week to a League Cup game, like I read here. Every fan who spends at least 1000 euro, to make a dream come true, must be more than Welcome to ANY City game.You need to read the thread again bud. You're missing the point big time.

I honestly would give them my ticket. After all, I ve been away lots of time. Coming from abroad, this may well be their only shot for a long tine.Yes to home games, imagine how you would feel if they took a large chunk of your away allocation causing long term fans to not be able to go.

Some people on here are completely missing the point of the thread. No-one has a problem with Belgian fans per se or any foreign fan, especially those who appear to be genuine fans. But if they want to watch a match, there are 53,000 tickets available for every home game, and they are more than welcome to attend them. City's biggest game of the season so far should never have been their first game when fans with 10,000+ loyalty points didn't come close to getting a ticket. If a group of 200 Mancunians who rarely attended games suddenly were able to get tickets ahead of some of our most loyal fans, people would rightly kick off as much as Belgians. I've been a season-ticket holder for 10yrs, been to every home game so far this season in every competition and I'm a million miles away from getting a ticket for an away game, certainly one like Arsenal in the league. So it definitely is annoying to see such a large group of people allowed to jump the queue like this because not only does it make it harder for the regulars to go, it reduces the chance of younger, genuine fans ever being able to experience an away trip

Due to commitments/costs some 'local' City fans miss games.I read it all. Foreign fans can only come when holidays, like now.

There is likely to be at least 1 home FA Cup game which will be under subsribed, there are even with our full house signs up seats available for EVERY home game.
If its costing £1k to get to a game is suggest having a couple of days off and make it a proper break.
But again although the thread us titled as Belgian fans (they stood out) its about the club giving tickets to casual followers or corporate fans at the expense of long-term regular match going fans.

Well, we have different views of The problem. Probably there are millions of City fans wanting to attend a game. From time to time, the rel, old, genuine fans has to suffer for the well being of The club. For the expansion of fan base. It is what it is, City went global. Just wait to see when chinesse Will arrive. :)))Some people on here are completely missing the point of the thread.

With the corporate fans I agree. They don t even come to the games.Due to commitments/costs some 'local' City fans miss games.

No they really don't. If foreign fans want to come and expand the fanbase, they're more than welcome to home games or even away games that go on general sale. 200 of them should not be able to leapfrog the queue for a game that sold out at 13k loyalty points. That is just wrong
