Does nobody understand the point. How did City allow a situation to develop that 3,000 tickets were sold to Poles without anybody realising!!!!

They did realise, hence the club moving fans.

It's a good point and hopefully they'll learn from it, because handing out free tickets to me and everyone else in East Level 3 can't be good business practise.

Just a thought why did these random poles (if you believe they wont be Poznan fans) only buy tickets in the East Stand - or will they club be coming after us Colin Bell Level 3ers next ?

great idea of MCFC to give the poles level 3 so they can gob on and chuck piss/coins etc on City fans below?

I was told that now they have got wise to what's going on, they will contact fans with Polish sounding names and ask them to relocate too.

Don't forget City outsource ticket selling.

Some numpty working for ticketmaster will just follow orders. They won't care what someone's name is.

Who remembers this happening for Shalke away, where blues who ordered tickets in their section had their tickets revoked?

Danny - they should have realised before 3,000 tickets were sold.

Where didn't they relocate the North Stand, it would have been like the old days one end outsinging the other, finished off by a sprint across the pitch :) if my seat comes flying done off the 3rd tier I won't be happy. To be honest can't wait for next Thursday, hopefully a great game, loads of singing and a real Euro night, if not a nightmare could be in the making.
I posted on here 2 weeks ago that 3 Poles in my street in Yorkshire had tickets for the main stand, turns out they mean the CB stand and the notice I said about on the staff Tesco notice board about night staff changing shifts so they could go, sounds like it was all being planned weeks ago.
Anyway lets hope for a great night.

just checked my e mail and found the following, to say I am annoyed is a fucking annoyed is a massive understatement!

I have sympathy towards the OP. He bought his tickets expecting to be sat in his seat, next thing the goals post move. There is some on here saying tough as Northstanders had to move. it is not the same, you were told about the move prior to buying tickets

All 3 Euro games for £30.01.

Nice one City.
