Anyone that wanted to go to Marseille could have done and there were 3000 ish. The reputation put a few off and there might be a few going for a red light, cake bender but it's not 10,000 for sure.

1500 tops without tickets. Probably more like 500.
Almost definitely not 10,000 but I think you're on the other side of the correct answer. I reckon more like 3000-5000.
I'd actually be more surprised if it was only 500 than if it was 10,000.

There’s 5 of us going ticketless, 2 are my son(10) and nephew (11) looking to find a nice bar, or fanzone…. boys are super excited and hoping they will enjoy the whole experience
I think the drinking age is still 18 there.

Hamilton Junior is going out with a few ticketless friends too. He might have been with me but I was so lucky to get a ticket last week.

It feels like there will be a large number of ticketless fans. My advice would be to stay together.

Really can’t see it personally…….of all the regulars I know (across the spectrum of ’home only’ to ‘every game, home and away’) I know one fan that’s going without a ticket. Where are these numbers coming from ?

Us ticketless fans will be indistinguishable from those with tickets until the game. Then the ‘ultras’ will be at the match with you lot.

We’ll be fine.

Absolutely no chance that as few as 500 ticketless fans make the trip. I reckon there will be that many alone who pre-booked flights and hotels in case they got tickets and then didn't - never mind the rest who have decided to go since tickets were sold out.

1,500 is a good guess IMO but it wouldn't surprise me if as much as half of our travelling support were without tickets in the end.

I reckon 1-2k ticketless personally.
Know a group that sorted accommodation early and there’s 12 ticketless. The trip is just easy and attractive, although Athens more so for me.

Don't forget, as much as we all think NSC is the centre of our Albion bubble.... it reflects only a small % of Albion support, home and away,... a quick assessment of those on here who are going ticket less,... maybe a hundred... 5%.. extrapolate to our home support of >< 28k .. let's say 1400 ish... plus those floating supporters who fancy a jolly,.. I think we will see 3k ish outside those in the stadium.... just an opinion.

Travelling with a large group of which at least 4 don’t have tickets (& have probably never heard of NSC!)

3000 is the number I was coming up with. Whatever, it will be large numbers I think

I'm hoping for some sort of fan zone, not overly enthusiastic about wandering around Dam Square with the Mrs and landing in the wrong place.

I'm going as part of a group of five without tickets. Where is info on this 'fanzone', please? Thanks
