On the flip side. I not complaining. Just an observation. I have seen plenty of young City fans in away ends. Where are they getting away tickets from?
The whole system of away tickets is fucked up. The club is playing a majority part of that fuck up. OSC's and City fans in general only benefit from away tickets because of the club and how it runs the away ticket allocation.
If the club really wanted to sort away tickets out and make it as fair as possible to get an away ticket, they could do, but they don't want to do that. There's too much money and vested interests involved.
We've now gone from OSC's taking names for away tickets, handing out away tickets, and collecting money for away tickets, to the branches taking names for away tickets, the club confirming you have got an away ticket, and paying the club for an away ticket within 48 hours, otherwise you lose the away ticket, and (I'm assuming) the away ticket goes back to the club to be sold to who?
