Mancs in the home end

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

pretty sure the 2 next to me were mancs. They were incredibly quiet all through and the only time they got interested was when Chippy Jnr got a text saying it wasn't a penalty.

Simple solution.

When an oppo supporter is ejected, take away the membership of whoever's seat he was occupying.

Plenty of supporters queueing up to take the space.

It would shorten the waiting list. And do us all a favour.

I'm sure one of the stewards will confirm this, but aren't they supposed to do that if someone reports a ticket as touted? I've seen it done once. I bet most stewards can't be arsed with the paperwork/hassle.

Certainly did'nt see any in our section last night, virtually none before the game and from what I heard and read they got a very warm reception down the HR last night :twisted: :wink:

They do get reported mate! I'm with you 100% on that one, I'll always request for a membership to be rejected if the tickets been touted. And the paperwork is really no trouble!

My sis is a red member and doesn't get to go too often, but she'd have loved the opportunity to be there last night. Really angers me how touts openly ask to buy or sell tickets right under the police's nose
