CL Without A Match Ticket

[The Year Of The Fox]

Now we're all but guaranteed three games in Europe next season I'm wondering how many fans are likely to travel abroad, with or without a match ticket.

Reckon there'll be many who see it as a once in a lifetime/generation thing or will the STHs who aren't bothered about travelling to away games in this country won't bother going abroad either?

I reckon the more obscure the place the easier it'd be to get a ticket out there. Also the bigger stadiums would give you more chance of getting in the home end. There are always ways and means of getting in.

And in any case, who'd turn down a trip abroad with 3-5k other city fans on the lash even if you couldn't get to the game- it's only 90mins

[Fox92]

I want to go to at least one of the away games in Europe.

 

Wouldn't bother travelling if I didn't get a ticket though. Waste of money above everything else.

[Captain...]

Yes to at least one, location and timing might rule some out, but I will be there for at least one away day, hopefully all 3.

[AKCJ]

Depends. If its in a good city and still warm out then yeah I might. Be a good laugh and a holiday.

[Guest Bilo]

It might not be as hard as you think to get tickets, depending on location.

 

Obviously the likes Barca, Real and PSG would sell out instantly, but somewhere like Shakhtar Donetsk, Lech Poznan or Sparta Prague probably wouldn't as the tourists wouldn't fancy it. Ironically, this'd make them better away days.

Donetsk or Poznan are not that pretty, but Prague is beautiful and beer is cheap

Prague away is the stuff of dreams.

[Blanesta]

I will wear the full kit 

[Guest Bilo]

Prague away would be utter carnage.

 

Not one for the sitters or tartan blankets. 

[Harry - LCFC]

I've no idea how fast tickets are likely to sell for this. Weighing up factors like distance, importance of the fixture and league form means you can usually make a good guess of how many tickets we'd be able to sell. It won't be so easy to make that judgement with CL fixtures.

Only places I wouldn't go to are Turkey and Russia. Doubt I'd bother going without a ticket tbh but that shouldn't be an issue.

[ItalianGuyWhoLikesLCFC]

I'd really love to see you guys here in Rome. Also, it would be nice to see Ranieri playing against "his" AS Roma.

[Voll Blau]

Not sure hanging around in Naples would be too clever.

[Itsthejoeker]

I still reckon tickets will be more available than people are making out. It is one thing getting a coach to Sunderland on a Sunday, but an oversees game on a weekday night is something completely different.

[StanSP]

Doubt there'd be games in Donetsk, either. Haven't Shakhtar stopped playing there since the city (and the stadium) got bombed?

 

Depending where it is, I'd love to go but it'd be so weird not going with everyone and missing the match whilst being in the city

[Adster]

Wouldn't bother travelling if I didn't get a ticket though. Waste of money above everything else.

Both are my exact opinion as well.

I want to go to at least one euro away day, but pointless if I can't get a ticket.

[Kegworthfox]

I follow England away and went on Wednesday to PSg v man city always make my own way there it's cheaper and better I have promised my 6 year old grandson at least 1 away

[AndWhat?]

Planning on going to all 3 away games. 

 

Some of the allocations are massive so don't think tickets will be that hard to come by. 

 

Don't you get like 9k for Barca?

And look how many travel with England without tickets.

The game usually ruins the trip

People are seriously missing out if they'd not travel without a ticket

[Nalis]

Astana away. Be there or be plastic.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Completely dependant on location, If I can tie a game in with a short break somewhere I haven't been before I'm there regardless. 

[Webbo]

I'm hoping for an away. I told the wife if we got somewhere warm I'd take her (not to the match obviously). Personally I fancy somewhere like Latvia.

Nah, they'll get snapped up quickly. If we get top 4 next season, then the season after once the novelty wears off they'd start being easier, but for the first season it'll be a quick sellout.

[RowlattsFox]

Fancy a late summer trip to Portugal.

[Hollism]

I think the thousands who went to the likes of Bury and Norwich and Rotherham are just as likely to go to all the shitholes of Europe personally. How many people are on the away scheme? 500? You only get 5% of the capacity in Europe as well.
