Big Finals Should be played in BIG STADIUMS, it’s so fcukn simple !!!
I would like to know how many tickets the club gave out. Players rightly should get a few for friends or family but loads of stories of people getting tickets from the club and with amount of ex players that appeared it seems like they handed out an awful lot.
Yeah, if he got one for Dortmund he surely would have got for the Final
He's clarified that his Dortmund ticket was passed on from a mate, therefore he didn't actually get a Dortmund ticket, his mate did.
I heard of someone who got two through a Lowland league club, apparently some were distributed to those clubs too.
Yeah ,seen that mate, I should have read further down the thread before posting
No, the issue is also with Rangers. They gave every member of staff tickets (and quite often more than 1 ticket if they applied for that).
On the flip side of that there were / are people who only went/go to euro aways
Hi mate , normally 16 of is go to most euro aways . Half had tickets . Out of that half 2 got them from My Gers 1 from a pal of staff a couple from ballot and one paid 1500 and one from a sponsor.
I can’t understand why they don’t wait until after the 2nd leg of the semi, allocate 35% of tickets to each club in the final and the remaining 30% to their own corporate and sponsors.
I disagree that community coaches and the likes deserve to be there more than MyGers members.
They did the opposite as pre-MyGers Euro aways were heavily diluted at 5 points per game (same as attendance at a regular home game). This decision cost me a ticket and meant I had to pay a ridiculous amount from a tout.
I would agree with this despite the fact that four of us got tickets in the ballot!
That point of view I understand completely and agree with aye, I felt hard done by when I missed out on a Leipzig ticket even though I had done Belgrade, Lyon, Brondby and Braga all officially through Rangers, I got one off a mate eventually but I won't be seeing the benefit of the 15 points for that.
While I say that, you can't really blame the people for taking the tickets, it's the system that's broken. Me and my boys are St holders, Mygers, go to a handful of away games a season and try and get 1 or 2 Euro away trips every year, it's could be reasonably argued that we shouldn't have gotten tickets, there will always be someone more deserving. It was more the brazeness of those people that irritated me.
Mate, no harm to these guys and I understand your point but, do they not get paid every month for 'keeping it going'? FFS bro if that's your argument then surely the supporters are even MORE deserving of tickets given the thousands of pounds we are ploughing into the club every year. Our choice, of course but, this was a great chance to really reward loyalty. There simply wasn't enough tickets to go in around and I'm not an idiot, of course some were going to club/corporate use but, that amount? I don't think it's right, personally. As I said further up though I don't think the club were the biggest issue here. This other post I've quoted is bang on the money for me. Uefa have created this environment, not the club.
Correct.
What was the cut off point for Belgrade? My son was under 100 MyGers points and got a ticket for the game and attended with my and my mate who are both mid/high silvers.
I got tickets for them all through rangers
Maximum who could have got all of the tickets officially would have been 5% of our allocation based on Dortmund section only being 500
That’s disgraceful when you consider the day trippers that got them through the club and UEFA.
OP here , exactly my point . The place should have been rocking when we went one up . That adage of its not what you know but who you know seemed to apply particularly to this game if you got a ticket .
