Topic: City away in the LC - selling details

[Red Pat]

Not had to arrange for collection in ages.  But club said only the lead booker can collect but he's not going and given it to my mate.  Club said it's non-transferable and could issue a refund!  Waiting for tomorrow and hope the tkt comes!

[Barneylfc∗]

Surely because you qualified and bought one but someone else is using it?

I got an email. I didn't qualify for a ticket.

[raging]

Mine from first sale just arrived. Post marked 29/11. 

[ABJ]

I got an email. I didn't qualify for a ticket.

Sounds like they've just randomly sent it to people, some that qualified and some that didn't.

[LFC_R_BOSS]

My mate just had to go to the sorting office as no postage was paid . Thank god he’s got them as he’s not going and is the lead booker.

[NickoH]

My tickets have just arrived 😁

[ScubaSteve]

I got an email. I didn't qualify for a ticket.

Yeah same here. The email got me excited in case they’d issued me a ticket in error 

[kopitenkw]

My tickets from the second sale finally arrived today.

[Luke 17]

my tickets that were apparantly posted 18 days ago still haven't arrived 

[Red Pat]

First sale tickets arrived today, finally!

[carl123uk]

Still no tickets for me from the 2nd sale. I'm not lead booker but 1 of the tickets in the order is in my name so who knows.

[RainbowFlick]

Possibly but its normally match specific, for example, anything to do with euro aways is only sent to those that have purchased a ticket.

I heard earlier that some that did purchase haven't received anything at all, so they have probably just sent them to those whose surnames begin with A to M (for example) rather than those that have purchased a ticket to the match or to everyone on the database.

for undisclosed (*cough*CL*cough*) purposes i had a membership last season with City and they messaged everyone too

have a mate with a LFC membership purely to 'be part of the club' with only one or two games and he got it randomly too

[liversaint]

Surely because you qualified and bought one but someone else is using it?

I got it, not going or linked by F+F to anyone who is. Possibly sent to all ST holders/members etc

[tolga]

Hi everyone.
I will be visiting Manchester from Istanbul with my brother on this match date. I do not have any club membership. Is it possible to buy a ticket or transfer? Can anyone help me? I don't want to miss this opportunity on this date when I will be in Manchester.

[lfcrule6times]

Yeah same here. The email got me excited in case they’d issued me a ticket in error 

Same! But then had a slight panic in case it went to all members and i missed out, as I'd definitely not bought one.

You probably have little chance of getting tickets at the away end. If you certainly don't want to miss the game your best bet is getting tickets in the home end but be careful.

No general sales unfortunately. they only sell to those who have been to the game at least once. That's why I can't buy it.

So your only option appears to be 'buy online' through a ticket website

Anyone been able to nominate someone else to collect duplicates from Etihad?

[SingFongFC]

Anyone been able to nominate someone else to collect duplicates from Etihad?

Not yet, my mate whose ticket I was going to be using has been trying this morning. They won’t budge, seemingly

So if tickets don’t show, there will be a ticket going to waste. So frustrating, you can nominate someone else to have a Champions League Final ticket if it came to it, but they can’t let anyone else collect one at a League cup away game in December

Not yet, my mate whose ticket I was going to be using has been trying this morning. They won’t budge, seemingly

So if tickets don’t show, there will be a pair of tickets going to waste. So frustrating, you can nominate someone else to have a Champions League Final ticket if it came to it, but they can’t let anyone else collect one at a League cup away game in December 

Yup it’s ridiculous, especially considering the postal strikes, thought they would have been a bit more lenient for this game

[SingFongFC]

Exactly - if they’d have sent them with a different service to take into account these strikes, everyone’s tickets would have arrived!

So you’d think they’d be a bit sympathetic seeing as they’ve had at least a partial role in tickets going astray

[Red210]

Mine from the 2nd sale still hasn't arrived, wish the club could have thought ahead and used a different delivery service.

[daindan]

Anyone been able to nominate someone else to collect duplicates from Etihad?

Yes did that earlier. It all depends on who you get.

[SingFongFC]

Yes did that earlier. It all depends on who you get.

FFS - any chance you know it was, I’ll get my mate to ask for them 

[carl123uk]

I've chatted to Kev on LFC twitter help and Kev has replied to my DM and said lead booker only

[LFCagro77]

in typical fashion, tickets arrived today after getting in touch with the club last night arranging duplicates to be collected 

[AnthonyStabile]

Bad end that last night.

Rows and rows of empty seats up near the back.

Should have took the piss out of that shitty light show but a half arsed what the fuckin hell is that was all we could muster.

Piss poor atmosphere wise seen as we had a 6k allocation.

Was like no one could be arsed, bars were rammed downstairs well after kick and before after half time.

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Haha my ticket finally arrived today!

it's cos a lot more people bunched up towards the front

[TeddyTime33]

Hope the dickhead who threw something into the city end gets a life ban

[Flyhalf]

Just had an email from the club asking if I can help identify the person. I honestly can’t. Saw several plastic pint  ‘glasses’ being lobbed, but none from close to me

[nearly40]

Not had a peep about the lady who was hit by a bottle thrown by masked Rangers fans after the CL game.

Of course not - this is just City trying to fuel themselves for reducing our allocation in April again

Those involved be playing it up for compo no doubt too

[redgriffin73]

Had the same email, don't think I've ever seen anything like that before.

throwing things at people is unacceptable behaviour end of, football match ffs

[30fiver]

Not saying it isnt - they lobbed flares at us inside and out last season and didnt hear a word about it

[Thepooloflife]

Exactly right......deserves a lifetime ban and police prosecution. The girl needed hospital treatment and is afraid to go to games now....

[Schmarn]

I hope the offender gets found and issued with a lifetime ban and criminal charges.

Let's leave whataboutery to the City fans. Their answer to every offence committed by their own fans is "but Liverpool fans attacked our bus 5 years ago". I half expect a certain footballer of theirs to plead it in his defence in court.
