Hurry up and open the exchange so my tickets can get sold, I’m a bad fan and not going. ( flying to Manila 2 days later and can’t be arsed with a long drive and late night home)

That’s All
There’s still 200 tickets left.

Going to be in Dublin for work.

Thinking twice about whether to list mine or not if it does open. Having a Chelsea fan next to the boy without parental supervision would not end well!

At what time Thursday, or even Wednesday evening, does the 'I sat next to a Chelsea fan' thread start.
I had Man City fans in front of me recently and they sat very still. Wasn't until one guy turned on his phone and I saw the Man City crest as his home page I knew. Well behaved they stayed all game, not a whisper.
Chelsea fans will be ejected within 30 seconds if they're close to me.

Can’t give mine away, might end up having to work out a way to get there instead.

Can’t go as away. Wanted to share my ticket to a mate, who originally couldn’t go so had already shared his ST with someone else. Not allowed. Exchange not open so seat will be empty and he’s got to buy a full price ticket. Kerching :shrug:

My Son...Brighton Season ticket holder but always has been City Supporter...went in the City end with a friend.
Behind me in West Stand I have several Brighton Season ticket holders whose first team is Everton. I have no problem with away supporters in Home seats as long as they respect the fact that they have to curtail their celebrations and not goad our players or supporters.
It does amaze me that I if I can`t go i can`t give my ticket to a friend who I can vouch for but I can put it on exchange which as has been shown can end up with anyone.

I've taken Everton and, dare I say it, Palace (twice) fans to sit next to me. I do introduce them to those around me and my friends understand the rules, no celebrating.
But you're right, I can't give my ticket to an Albion fan for a game but I know of a Man Utd guy who has purchased Albion+ just to get a ticket for their game.

It amazes you that the club doesn't want to faciliate fans breaking the law laid out in Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994?

Hope it doesn’t open tbh - will make many of the fair weathereds think twice about turning up and they may make the effort - as it looks SHIT when loads don’t.

I'm down in London for work until 6pm then going to rush down for the match and bound to be late....I'll be turning up in my posh suit and getting to a mid-row seat so I'm pretty sure I'll be assumed as Chelsea......even wearing my scarf wouldn't help......no time to jump off at the Prem Inn Gatwick where I'm staying on the way....and the bag rules mean not much of a change possibility.....so perhaps I'll just start fiddling with the app....other suggestions welcome, facetious or otherwise......

There is the bag drop at the back of the South stand. I think it is still a fiver with the money going to AITC but someone will be able to confirm.

People who cant go / wont go still wont go, so open the exchange and get the tickets sold......less chance of empty seats upsetting you.
plenty of people wait for decent seats to come up as they dont want to be low down in a corner.

Yeh maybe. Could go either way really but does feel a bit wrong they’ve not opened exchange with many of the remaining tickets being expensive corporate. It doesn’t upset me - just looks shit and shows a number of fair-weathered fans about unfortunately.
