Jibbing on Saturday

Jibbing is too straightforward, better to go deep undercover

Waiting staff reds :cool:
 
Fair play to you Psmith. Top story that :)

Anyone hear about the guy that went in via the air vents and came crashing through the roof near one of the food kiosks? fecking hell fire :D
 
Because what fecking right do people have to force their way by any means into an event that everyone else has shelled out their hard earned to watch. It doesn't matter if it's overpriced or not.

The price does matter - if it's a choice between having only people who can afford £1,000+ in the ground, or having a few hundred more die-hard reds who have spent their lives doing anything they can to make sure they can support the lads in there, I know which I prefer.
 
Of course the price matters. £150-300 for a ticket if you were 'lucky' in the ballot. Over a grand from a tout (many of whom were selling snides too, the cnuts)

Not everyone can affored those prices and slowly but surely the game is being taken away from the working classes.
 
I remember a few people on here claiming they were going to Jibb, not heard from them yet, they still locked up then?
 
I saw a few lads getting chucked out right at the turnstile. They got in that far but were chucked out immediately. I agree with the prices. The whole system and online touting lark meant there were a lot of knobends at that final.
 
About 5 lads infront of us all managed it, said it was a piece of piss just before KO .... We went in entrance A and they had coppers and security everywhere. Ridiculously easy to walk round from the neutral section into our end mind you :D
 
Saw some chucked out and quite a few got in.

Why is it so ok for some people to just come in without paying anything?

We can't pick and choose when we want free market forces.

Because they take a risk.

Life is about balancing risk/reward. Those who choose to pay 1k a ticket obviously wanted guarunteed entrance with extremely low risk of being thrown out.

Those who didn't pay, are paying an indirect cost of being kicked out, thrown in the nick, etc.

So does the guy who breaks into your house and robs your telly.

Doubt you'd congratulate him on his efforts, though.
 
I want a Ferrari, if I explain to the police that I reeeeally wanted it, would I be ok pinching one?

You must be on a wind-up.
 
Hordes of exta fans intent on jibbing was an alleged cause of Hillsborough.

Whether that's what actually happened or not doesn't matter, it could happen, and that's why it's a cnut's trick.

Not a good thread at all.

There is a huge range of causes of what happened on that day, hardly fair to just put it down to jibbing.
 
Sure but it's hardly rocket science to suggest that stadium safety isn't improved by the attendance of fans without tickets.

No it doesn't, but it's not one of the bigger reasons but that's another discussion entirely.

As for the OP I heard a few cracking stories of people getting in, even better than the kiosk roof one!

At the other end of the scale, if the authorities pushed up the price of food until you couldn't afford to eat, would you be justified in stealing food?

For me jibbing is between the two.

No, of course football isn't necessary to stay alive, but is is something that people have always had, has been a central part of their lives, and has been taken away from them.
It also does very little harm compared to stealing somebody's property - I've been to matches with plenty of jibbers around me, and it has only enhanced the experience.

You can't compare food to football, mate, you just can't.

I understand the point of view, I just don't agree with it, but last time I got into this it escalated to umpteen pages, so I'll just say I disagree and leave it at that :)

Hah.

Ever downloaded anything, Nicko? It's more comparable to that, rather than nicking something which another person would then not have.

I paid through the nose... I say Wembley needed more hardcore Reds, which I reckon the jibbers were.

Good on them.

Go on tell me some stories!
 
As with anything, there are way too many stories being made up. But there were fecking loads who got in about 5 times but chucked out every time. The best I've heard of was the lads who sneaked in through the outside toilets, opening in the ceiling resulting in this....

I've only just remembered trying to get hold of Bread to text you saying there was no segregation and to get your arse into our end! Did you manage to come round?

My favourite is the lad who got caught in the Barca end, legging it in no shoes screaming 'I'm only after the barca fan who nicked my ticket'
