Travelling to Madrid

Yes it's definitely a culture thing, in the past few seasons we've played Real, Atletico, Barca and Sevilla and none of them have taken anything close to a full away end. Sevilla brought about 50.

For a team that get 80,000 fans every home game and suposedly have the largest international following in the world, the fact they're unable to sell 3,000 tickets for an away UCL semi final is embarrasing

Despite being the bestest ever, most historic, greatest, club of all time Real rarely sell out home matches.

In my experience, the pre-match and post-match coppers in Madrid have always been sound, especially with our normal piss up shenanigans in Plaza Mayor.

The robocops at the stadium are different gravy, but you just need to not behave like a dickhead and all is well with the world.

Not true pal, I went to the Pelligrini semi, we got kettled going into the ground no trouble and they just hit people fir the sake of it, absolute cunts, I vowed never to go back unless it was a final, fucking wankers in a uniform. Saw them drop a 65 year old bloke with a head butt and the copper had a helmet on!

I absolutely get your reply, but it's improved since then mate. In no small way because the son of a member of City's staff had his arm broken by a baton for daring to stop and wait for his Dad on the way out. The club obviously raised a complaint at the highest level.

I realise I'm kind of contradicting my original post, but I did qualify it by saying they're different at the stadium, which they undeniably are.

Kind of sums City up. If it's a staff member's son raise hell. If it's ordinary fans...do fck all.
 
What are the logistics for the April 17th home fixture? It’s my first time going about getting UCL tickets and am finding it difficult to source information about when those tickets will drop

Yeh and they decided to storm a pub near ground and hitting anyone who they could get the batons on,I think a guy who has something to do with Luton but he's a city fan got a whack crossing the road...they are twats....

i always stay near the ground so i can walk there and back - was thinking this year of getting the metro. If so, I know the metro is nearby - but what is it like after the game (and the 30 mins we are kept in). Anybody done it? Was it just meander to the metro and jump straight on, or are you joining a queue of thousands and it takes another bloody hour?

By the time we've been let out the ground the metro is pretty much empty

Father in law has season tickets at RM so I’ve been the past 2 years - when leaving with the home fans it’s pandemonium outside the ground immediately after FT but even that said the metro shifts everyone pretty quickly and there’s no waiting around. As others have said I’m sure when you get let out you’ll have no delays at all

What points on cup scheme do you estimate this will go down too

Personally anyone on cup scheme I reckon will get one if we get what allocation Leipzig got. The names on tickets malarkey sees it go lower than usual.

I think we're usually kept in for 30 mins after the game. Not sure about the metro but we've always found a bar close to the stadium for 30 mins & then flagged a cab back to the centre. It's usually pretty straight forward & lots of late bars in the centre.
 
Anybody know when tickets will go on sale for the away leg? Am wanting to go but I’m not on the UEFA cup scheme so might be touch and go depending on our allocation.
