Mags Giving Away Tickets


Shocking PR for the mags like

£20k a year private school in Dundee getting tickets to sell to their kids

Local lads missing out on tickets

Colours aside it’s shite for local folk to be priced out in favour of some posh kids hundreds of miles away

We’d be foaming if for example play off final tickets were being given free to a school in Chester whilst our own lads were missing out

Why does their club hate their local fans from Walker and Byker?
 
The NUFC Foundation have done this for years. There's 2 or 3 Scottish coaches parked up on barrack road just about every game. They sit either in the platinum club or upper tier of the Leazes.
My mate pays a fortune in the platinum and sees 50 kids walk in, fed, watered and tickets.
Kick in the bollocks for members.....

Any 'normal' fanbase I'd feel sorry for, but I remember tea towels on heads around St James, they lapped it up, swarming to drone displays, little realising it would them forced out to the sidelines, while selling out to the wealthier classes.

For all their braggarding about being the 'richest clerb in tha wurld' it pushes them out the picture for the big time games. Maybe people might be minded to follow a club more fan oreintated in the future

They have a point like, as much as I hate them I’d be pissed right off if it was us and kids in the local area couldn’t get a ticket but posh fuckers miles away given a package. It’s funny it’s happening to them on one hand but on the other pushing out local fans for tourists and the like is a horrible trend. Shame they weren’t about when Ashley was giving away season tickets with a sports direct mug.
Fuck them. This is what they wanted.
 
i googled it and found this user setup 2 months ago selling them for £750. what a coincidence :lol:

I must admit... It is disgusting that fans have to pay a membership and are not getting tickets while club try and attract their next lot of posh corporate types who will have never even watched a game before.
Absolutely disgusting when you think about it... and I must admit I absolutely love it. Inject it into my veins!!!
See my response above.

Here it is again, because I love telling them so much:

"Fuck them. This is what they wanted."
Its disgusting. The way football has and is going is minging. Fans ultimately the ones always shit on. We would be up in arms at anything similar, and rightly so. Fans actually need to pull together on shite like this creeping in, as it will be all of us eventually
Fuck them. This is what they wanted.

Well they make it so easy.

Going off at a tangent slightly here but it's been quite refreshing to me. Last night got served drinks in the Blenheim Hotel Spittal (not quite Scotland) by a lad in an Safc training top. He and his son are season card holders, very much a Berwick lad by his accent. Asked him how the land lyes, loads of other red n white in Berwick, just like other places there's loads of daft mags who couldn't point to sid James on a map who are never out of their strips. Up here in July, in Eyemouth and bumped into another mlf out walking the dogs. He was from Scotland and a season card holder too. He also reckoned plenty Safc around South East Scotland and East Lothian.

Heartening.
Always has been since 1960's, coach loads from the Borders and Scotland parked with other SAFC coaches at our home games along the sea front at Roker. I've stated before the first two fans to enter SOL were a father and son from Berwick.
