Just be aware folks - potential CL group stage draw on Thurs. Book those flights quickly before the bastards hike up the prices.

Please use skyscanner.net to check prices as checking them on the airlines website directly will cause further price rises.

Looking forward to more great European nights!

Providing tonight goes ok of course.

And whatever you do, do not under any cirumstance starting posting prices and routes for 48 hours after the draw. Allow those who are regulars to get sorted and then post all you like.

I did the out on the 11th and back on the 13th. Extra day gives you a more relaxing trip back to Nice rather than rushing off the morning after the game. Was still cheap when I booked it.

Pam here from irishkop.com thanks for all the enquiries folks. just wanted to say we are not a travel agent and we dont at any time tout tickets we are just a bunch of mainly irish reds looking to get to games and pooling our tickets,
I am covering most home games with boat at coach for €85 return dublin to liverpool and prefer if you had your own tickets keeps all costs down, just reds working for reds, we ran 2 bus loads for derby game and full bus for b'ham game we have one on for marseille game and others planned.

and shortly will be intruducing a new air package, tho this is though and agent working with us its just an option if you wish to take it.

Well stop encouraging people on your site to apply for tickets for games they aint going to, so they can give them to other people who dont even bother to apply for tickets.

A quote from you on your site re: the Marseille game

"dont forget tickets go to fancard sale tomorro try hard, tho chances of getting tickets in post could be doubtfull anyone getting tickets for others may have to be prepared to hand up the fancard for collection at the ticket offce"

You are encouraging people to buy for loyalty and just give the tickets to you - look at all the people on this site who tried for tickets for the Marseille game and couldnt get them and they would have gone to the game not given them to you.

people helping each other .....terrible terrible. fair play to pam. irish reds helping each other to avoid touts/travel agents. the effort people like pam put into trying to get genuine reds to games should be applauded not condemned.

if people dont agree fair enough, but many swap tickets with mates or on exchanges. i have both given and gotten tickets this way many times, as have many regular fans.

thats part of the reason for an irish reda thread.

TheKid. · « **Reply #146 on:** September 28, 2007, 10:13:10 PM »

and also part of the reason why, imo, this thread is a bad idea. Referring to Rushian's original previso for it

Thats a lame excuse - Irish Reds cant get tickets or have to use touts.

I have nothing but a fancard and manage to get to a few games every season - i have no need to use a tout and nor should anybody - those who do are stupid or lazy.

If some of them bothered to get a fancard and put a bit of effort into the general sale they would get tickets - i dont and never will buy that excuse - having to use touts/travel agents.

The people that use the touts/travel agents just want to go to the big games,any fan could have gone to the Toulouse game or would have little or no problem getting tickets against a small Premiership side but they use touts/travel agents to tell their mates "I went to the Liverpool V Man United game, im great"

No she shouldnt be applauded for asking people to buy tickets for the Marseille game to give to her,she is encouragiing blatant loyalty buying.
Look at the 27 pages of the thread on The General Sale for Liverpool V Marseille and look at all the genuine supporters who tried for tickets and would have gone to the game but didnt get them,half the people Pam will give all these spares to wont have even bothered on the phone/online sales.

Pepe Reina Is Rafas Son - If you have anything to say about a different forum, can I suggest you air your grievence on that forum. I don't think the mods here on RAWK particulary enjoy or want you or anyone to be causing hassle on something that has nothing to do with them. All what it will achieve is the locking of this thread, IMHO.

Peace out.

we encourage all fans to get fancards, we have all been stuck for tickets at one time or another, one day you'll be stuck and I bet you , and if someone is kind enough to offer you tickets, you dont give them the grief of "your buying for loyality", we are reds looking after reds, I am running transport because i am sick of being ripped off by agents, I will never buy from a tout at any time.
any one that supply irishkop.com with tickets in the past are recorded and when they are stuck they will be first helped providing i have tickets, common sence no one is giving up the likes of manc and blue shyte tickets,

TheKid. · « **Reply #151 on:** September 29, 2007, 10:01:17 AM »

point it, by getting everyone to buy these tickets, you're pretty much 'ghettoising' a whole load of tickets, which (nothing to do with your site) is what Rushian specifically asked this thread NOT to be. So maybe all advertising of your site should steer clear of here. Those who know about it, know about it, otherwise you run the risk of antagonising a lot of people on this site

Yeh thats good that you are encouraging people to apply for fancards.

They are only offering you tickets for your selected Travel Club games because of your messages before the general sale encouraging people to buy tickets for the games so that you can give them to others - some whom i know for a fact didnt even bother to try the online/phone sales.

The transport is fine and a great idea and well done but there is no need to include tickets in it.
People can get tickets even with a fancard if they put some effort in,it may not be to all the big games thate everyone wants to go to,but they will still be able to make games.

I went to around 7/8 games last year with all tickets i got on my fancard - and why ? because i hammered the phones and net,there was some games i didnt get anything but i still got to see liverpool play.

People dont need to use touts or travel agents - thats just a lazy excuse.

Tell them to get a fancard and put some effort in on the day of the general sale - that way you will not have to ask people to get loadsa tickets for games they aint going to.

I agree that Pam does great work on behalf or many people associated with irishkop but I think that all ticket comments and debates should be limited to that site.

As the Kid has said it was a proviso with the permission for this thread that it did not turn into a Irish ticket exchange.

Yeah but a hell of a lot of people just cant spend hours on the phone looking for tickets, so its not fair saying they are lazy, i agree there a lot of people who could not be bothered, but the majority just can not do it, i work shift and if im working there is no way in hell i can get tickets.

Fair dues for spending hours on the phone but a lot of people just can not do it
