We had an old boy in front us who was struggling a bit they let him in gave him a seat until lads he was with got to front then he just joined in and picked his ticket up job done.Actually there were at least three fellas in the queue near us in their 70s.
Being old isn't a disability, but they still should be treated better.
We offered to watch the space for the two old guys behind us so they could go and get a drink, have rest and go to loo,but the declined.
Haha u trying to jump the queue Tim ??This is a red herring mate. People with disabilities go straight to the front of the queue. There tends to be an awful lot of carers (queue jumpers) with these Blues too lol!
I'm fucked if I am going to take a day off work and a near 500 mile round trip to queue up for a ticket !If we're going to have to queue for two hours then why can't we queue at the ETIHAD when they first go on sale and take our flight/hotel confirmation?
Or is that too simple?

It can be arranged for the price of a beer hahaYes mate. Just let me know when you will be arriving at the ticket collection point in Gladbach lol

the problem is that its not fair. I am in favour of the system if it does allow middle pointers to get tickets but it also means that high pointers, like myself, who actually do use their tickets are being dragged in to this farce. why on earth people like myself who in their 60,s shouldn't be queing in the pissing rain when the reasons behind it are nothing to do with me. I am using the ticket, I am not selling it on. I am and never have been a pisshead who giving the club a bad name and I am most certainly not a security risk. there is absolutely no reason to question my attendance in this manner.You are correct on one point that I did not go on Wednesday due to my points not being sufficient to buy.
However, This new system has allowed me to purchase tickets on my own criteria for games in Paris & Madrid.
If it means a 20 minute wait in the Pull man hotel or a shopping centre then that's fine by me.
Now can you now see why I'm all for it ?? It bring people like me on 12000 points into the frame for these games.
I could join a supporters club and try and jump the que that way but I'm very much against that way of getting tickets for matches.
So cut out your petty responses about telling me about being selfish as it makes you look stupid.
you and people at your level of points are there because you haven't attended as many games. games that we have sent tickets back for. half of the people you are defending wouldn't go to a euro or indeed a domestic away if the ticket fell on their lap.[
No, it benefits everyone who are on the same level of points that i'm on that in the past would not get a look in for these games.
3 lads i go with on the same points as me are now having a chance to buy a ticket for these games.
What is wrong with that ?
