If we all manage to get in weds v Leipzig…

[blue ranger]

of course we will. That's a big game. We could sell 70k for that easy.

I’m not convinced we will tbh.

 

[blue ranger]

Don’t understand why anybody gets all arsey about Pep’s comments.

The atmosphere tonight was embarrassing.

It was mate. Of course some people can’t go for different reasons. But the tickets were fairly priced and for some reason many are “choosing” not to go. Like I said earlier, this is the best team we will ever see in my lifetime anyway. I personally can’t understand why the ground isn’t full, or at least in line with premier league attendances.

Are being serious? Do you not see the difference between midweek and weekend?

True mate, but I wouldn’t worry about whether others turn up or not too much. It was an enjoyable 9 goal thriller.

Got home a bit before 1am and now off to work. It was worth going for me but everyone makes their own choices.

 

[Bluemoon1979]

Totally agree with Pep on this one and don’t think it’s all down to the ticket office. Doubt we will sell out for PSG. Our players and Pep deserve better IMO. The other English teams manage to fill the grounds for champions league games. I seriously can’t understand it.

Chelsea had 39,000 against St.Petersburg. We had 45,000 last night!

How was access to the stadium last night? I read on the match thread that there were big queues waiting to get in. I'm at the game on saturday, so I'm curious as to what time to get to the entrance. 30 minutes? 45?

was in ground 50 mins before game no issues

apparently we had 38k? Seemed more to me.

It says 45,000 in all the papers this morning

 

[Blue Mist]

Anyone that attends a midweek game should be applauded and those that don't should not be moaned at, by Pep or other fans.
The Mancunian Way is a joke, the tram not much better, last night there were no buses to the ground, car parking is a disaster.
Most fans have work the next day.
I couldn't give 2 shits if the crowd was 30,000 or 55,000 and anyone that gets upset by rags laughing should grow a pair.

set off now .

well that seems more like I counted. Great crowd.

Where did you sit in the ground? I was in SSL1 and it was good in there.

 

[Manchester33]

well that seems more like I counted. Great crowd.

Especially considering there were less than 100 away fans!

 

[Cellarite]

well that seems more like I counted. Great crowd.

If we’d have been playing Bayern or Dortmund rather than Leipzig, the away end would’ve had 5,000 in it rather than the 60 that I counted.

That would have meant the attendance was over 50,000.

I drove from Hull and back to attend with my lad last night. I got in at 00:30 and started work at 8. The lad has gone to school. It’s hard work but worth it.

I just believe Pep should look more into it rather than digging out fans. Barcelona is rarely full apart from knockout Chamions League matches and El Clasicos.

 

[MossHey71]

we walked straight in - no queues at all on B gates

 

[supersonicblue]

Did something go wrong with the Colin Bell tickets last night? Checked the ticket website and everywhere was full bar some areas in ss3 then checked back later and ss3 had sold out but tickets popped up in the Colin bell. Seemed odd to me.

Couldn't agree more mate, got back to North Wales about 11.45pm, in work at 07.30. Knackered.
It's our choice but I don't think some know the hoops we have to jump through.

 

[blue by birth]

I got to the ground 45 mins before kick off, walked straight in (east stand).

I was in ground 45 mins before kick off but there seemed to be a problem for late arrivals in SS3 ..people were still coming in 15 mins after kick off.
Plenty of young kids in SS3 which is good as they are the fans of the future.

 

[hilts]

Pep mentioned the lower than usual crowd in the interview there.
said they've scored 16 goals in the last 3 games and at the weekend he'd like to see more fans there

Should keep his opinions to himself on such matters tbh.

The baldy bastard needs to wind his neck in.
