Imagine being them.
A few extacts of a story on the BBC dated yesterday 10th February 2023:
Top Premier League clubs each have between 8-12,000 season tickets, memberships and hospitality tickets under the control of touts, claims a leading security expert.
In January, Brighton blocked 150 Liverpool fans from gaining entry to the home section of the Amex Stadium for their FA Cup fourth-round tie.
And so it continues

- Everton, but a cheer for City
They sell them outside the ground on a match day over-priced. I know a few Irish lads who come over 3 or 4 times a year and get tickets on a match day, they go to the same bloke for them. The tourists buy them, but they will be off to support someone else now. We have had stories about people buying tickets and getting in the ground only to find someone else in their seat with a ticket as well. If you are daft enough to buy these tickets then you takes your chance.

Proper Scouse accents there
LFC fans claiming City have tarnished the name of football. They have no shame.
Liverpool played by the rules on a shoestring ha ha ha ha. £80 mill strikers and hacking emails. That is just for starters.

@Greengenie nails Premier League humbug and moral flexibility.Argyle fan here compelled to post by double standards being applied by Prem
The most blatant bit of false accounting to get around FFP is the 50M for Stanley Park plans. I’m a design manager for one of largest construction firms in the country and if I had spent 1/6th of total 300M budget for the scheme to get to outline planning stage I’d expect to be sacked. 10% (30M) to get to full set of construction issue drawings is the norm.
Or to put it another way 50M spread over the five years you would be employing 100 people at £100K per annum full time. Really?
5M top’s should have been the cost.
Also seems City are being charged by Prem for failing UEFA FFP guidelines. Liverpool admitted this for two seasons when they didn’t qualify in 11/12 and 12/13.

Good luck to Plymouth this season - looks like a good race with a few big teams for that division (and the one above)

He would laugh in City fans faces, well he wouldn't laugh in mine.
