Just called the ticket office and they have no idea of the details/allocation, as they have heard absolutely nothing from Augsburg. I said well why doesn't someone at the TO improvise, and call them to ensure we don't have another Bordeaux eque situation, where all tickets had to be sent special delivery. They have sold their allocation for the home ends, which means they know how many are left over. Hardly fucking rocket science this is it...

If the police knew the allocation weeks ago, the club surely must have an idea....

The club will have know a few days after the draw

Bilbao got 1592 - so why is this any different - It's not

Not sure, but they were perfectly transparent with their allocation

They received 1760 tickets - 168 were used for club commitments and left 1592 for supporters

It'll stop a few cause some people just wont be arsed with the hassle of writing that letter etc.

Looks like one person can only pick up one ticket as well, so you can't pick up your set of tickets in one go

Only got Bordeaux from this season. Praying there will be a dramatically lower take up because of the collection, otherwise I won't get one.

cal_liverpoolfc · « **Reply #173 on:** January 22, 2016, 04:41:29 pm »

Got 5 credits, thought I had 6. Could be struggling here...

chrissimpson81 · « **Reply #174 on:** January 22, 2016, 04:42:26 pm »

So non transferable tickets are now transferable? Joke allocation. Joke sale/collection system.

Ye, probably did Andy to be honest. I know a lad in the ticket office that goes everywhere, home and away and I spoke with him.. He said that he hasn't heard anything. Yet low and behold, details have been released only a couple of hours after speaking to him. What a fucking shite allocation as well.

i dont think it changes much to be honest. joke of an allocation aswell. ive got 5 out of the last 7 but think its going further back than that

Wonder if the buyer will still get the credit if the ticket is passed on ?

hoppyLFC · « **Reply #180 on:** January 22, 2016, 04:49:01 pm »

Got everything booked for me and my lad, hopefully 6 credits will be enough this time !!

Mad, they should say that they don't get it and then those that have already booked etc and are on 1 or 2 can get their credits up.

I went to Kazan on someone else's card proved I went and the other lad still got the credit. I got nothing! So he was guaranteed Sion. LFC just said tickets are non transferable. Luckily he gave me the Sion ticket.

That's not the point of this though. The point of this is if you buy the ticket whether for yourself or someone else it MUST be used. Whereas previously people could just buy a ticket and not have to turn up or even bother selling it. Bestikas last year is a prime example of this, 4000 sold...500 at most turn up. Nowm if you/someone else don't collect the ticket...you don't get the credit. That's the big difference.

NickoH · « **Reply #187 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:07:28 pm »

I wonder what time the collection is. We only get in Augsburg about 6.15/6.30pm day of the game.

Max999 · « **Reply #188 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:07:42 pm »

'To ensure we can issue you a ticket at the ticket collection point in Augsburg, your name how it appears on your passport must be provided by the supporter making the booking.

There will be an opportunity for them to provide this information during the transaction.

We will not be able to make any changes to the booking once the purchase is complete.'

So when the person orders the tickets they provide the name of the person who will be using the ticket? How does that work, not even pretending that its someone who now can't make it and has a spare. Joke.

Tiz Lad · « **Reply #189 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:17:33 pm »

So if what I read somewhere is true and the Augsburg away section is a fixed amount,then LFC have kept 568 tickets for Corporate.

Bilbao got 1760 then had club commitments of 168 leaving 1592

Liverpool rather conveniently get 1192. So got to ask if it is fixed and allocation is 1760 there's only one place the rest have gone.

Those of you going enjoy yourselves and the ones hoping for spares hope the ones with the credits fill in the forms right for you all

hoppyLFC · « **Reply #190 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:35:42 pm »

They should should have announced this when the draw was made, loads have booked with little or no credits and may now be fucked, the club don't give a shit, covering their own backs with this smoke and mirrors collection lark because they have taken 30% of tickets for themselves, then conveniently blame it on credit hunting when they still allow people to buy and 'legally' sell their ticket on !!!

Don't know why they don't just do completely non transferable. This would go down to 1 or 2 and basically any allocation of 1500+ would go on general sale.

Tiger Tony · « **Reply #195 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:49:00 pm »

Augsburg capacity will be reduced as part of it is standing I think. Bilbao may have got more as there was less demand from home fans. It's still shit, and it wouldn't surprise me if the club have creamed some off, but doubt they would cream that many for this. Also the full premiership allocation is announced and then some creamed off out of that. So not entirely sure the allocation advertised by LFC has been altered.

This seems to be a pretty popular one, first German away since Leverkusen 2005, so going to be a few watching in bars I think.

Mad Max · « **Reply #196 on:** January 22, 2016, 05:57:10 pm »

It's annoying this, there was no scramble for tickets when 400 of us went to Hell (Galatasaray away) and you knew eveyone over there, Bucharest when it absolutely lashed it down and there was no shelter in the ground and other European aways when we took small allocations years ago and it was the same faces. These tickets going to corporates are a disgrace.

Exactly you stop credit hunting by making them non transferable end of story.

Why be shocked that LFC totally miss the point again.

Actively encourages touting this way

How many people have been going for years and built credits on season tickets not in their name though
