Ticket restrictions and resale warning for Galatasaray

[Tim of the Oak]

I'm on the cup scheme and have 4 tickets on my phone for this game. Mine, my wifes and my 2 daughters. Unfortunately we have tickets for a concert on the same night. And tickets for that are also on my phone. My next door neighbours are Blues and I said they could have mine and my wifes ages ago for this but i have no idea how to give them to them and also to my 2 daughters who probably wont bother going . 4 tickets bought and paid for on the cup scheme and ive no idea how to use them. Its a complete joke, how do we end up like this. I seriously hate modern technology

Just go to the game.

Yep I’ve got a load of hospitality seats directly behind my row, fully expecting it to be like the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul

You'll be able to identify the Turkish lads as they'll be the ones selling the genuine fake jerseys

Was genuinely chuckling at loads of the bar staff over there wearing the following season’s away shirt which hadn’t even been confirmed by the club yet

It’s going to be full of away fans. The club are selling huge amounts of tickets via ticket websites. Those tickets have no restrictions at all.

I know, im a bit gutted about it. There was a time id never consider missing a match but I suppose times change and after 53 yrs of match going the odd compromise keeps Mrs 2112 onside.

It really isn’t, just get yourself down to the stadium and support the team, it’s not going to be WW3.

I don’t think there will be that much trouble, especially if the regular seats are packed with Blues.

And they'll all be wearing baklavas.

It could potentially be a massive game for Galatasaray in terms of getting through to the playoff round. As of now they're one of five teams on nine points, three points clear of the cutoff but before they come to the Etihad they play Atletico Madrid at home with Atleti needing a result as they aim for the top eight.
My gut feeling is that there won't be ugly scenes but I'd still have preferred it if Gala have nothing to play for.

I think the Turkish fans will be an absolute delight.

That's a bazaar comment ;-)

Three blokes sat behind me at a recent home game with two wearing Gala shirts so they have purchase history and presumably a UK address. Will the club be asking them to unzip coats etc to see if they are wearing Gala shirts or will be checking to see if their names are Turkish sounding? What happens when there are a couple of hundred who have turned up and tickets been refused or do they think these restrictions will ensure that what happened at the swamp won’t be repeated.

Good job the poster saw it in the tongue in cheek way it was intended. He’s got his family responsibilities fair dos.

Absolutely - great advice - unless it’s a Rush concert @Blue2112 ;-)

I’m guessing Ed Sheeran???

The unless he’s planning a trip to Australia, I’m guessing not. I’m gonna go for The Damned.

They asked me to pull up my jumper v Leeds a couple of weeks to show the white T-shirt I had on underneath it wasn’t one of their shirts
But it still kicked off in the hospitality areas the club happily sold to any fucker
So that was all on the club and Soriano
