The loyalty system never happened. Complete sham.
To be fair the loyalty system has been implemented in the premier league.

Got tickets to all the balloted games so far and it has a little marker next to my tickets saying I have history.

I see tickets are now available at 295 a pop. I wonder if there will be another official release.

Does anyone know if there's any credit system that plays a part in getting away tickets for league games via ballot? Or have I just been unlucky all of last season and so far this season?

No credit system bar the ‘loyalty pot’ which is now closed to any new entries.

It’s a random draw.

Apparently

It hasn't. My account has the same thing, it just tracks what games you have been to so a loyalty system SHOULD be easy to bring in.

We got knocked back on the Arsenal home ballot on a membership that did 14 home games last season :lol:

It is possible they've set aside a certain number of tickets for those that attended the most games last season and you fell just below the threshold with 14?

As I'm sure they have implemented it this season.

Is it even worth trying to get a ticket in the away end at the Nou Camp with the view?
Alot of the third tier is being removed over the world Cup so I don't even know if the away section will still be there.
I imagine there will be a reduced capacity as well so less tickets for united.

Barcelona away, anyone know what location police normally escort fans to after the game.

Looking at hotels, would make sense to get one near to that location.

The match finishes by 8pm local time mate so I wouldn't be super concerned.

Didn’t want to be wandering around after with my lad. Crack of Dawn flight on the Friday back.
Game will finish closer to 08:40pm and by time let out of ground will be 9:30pm and with marshalling probably best to be close to ground. Can't help you with directions though, sorry

Sportsbreaks are taking apps for Barca now, £369 plus the cost of a ticket. Will be good for people trying to get into on the ladder, with it very likely going down to 0 credits.

If you were to book flights/hotel now you’re looking at around £300.

I'm going out on the train for £75 but in fairness that's not everyone's cup of tea.

But that really is the other end of the spectrum. Also massively unfair as its completely opaque how they obtain tickets.

Has anyone ever used livefootballtickets.com and what was their experience? Looking to come over from the states for the Crystal Palace match in Feb at OT. I need 2 for now, maybe more.

For a game like palace keep an eye on the Utd page , you should get them there. That website is a touting site

I used them for Wembley euro final tickets with no issues but it is a touting site so always a risk attached. You will probably get one on here for face value.

In addition to wanting two tickets for the Forest game on the 27th I’m desperate to start taking my two small boys too.

I know it’s a long shot as not many people will have three or more tickets available but if there ever are then please PM me.

Thanks

That sounds good. What is your route? We managed to find flights into Madrid and then a train from there to Barcelona for a good return price but I was considering the train route

Nice one - Something different so should be good. I want to do a road trip or train journey to a European games one time. Stop off at different cities enroute.

We get into Barcelona station similar time to you so maybe see you then

Thanks for the tip. I’ll probably have to take the risk as I need to secure tickets before I get my plane tix. Seems like the ones here are more a week or two before the fixture. Don’t want to risk being SOL after flying over.
