God Bless Nominal Tickets

[Frisko]

I went to the S Siro last week, and there were no 'bagarini', people outside the stadium selling tickets at incredibly high prices. They used to buy something like 50 tickets each, and sell them to people outside the stadium, desperate to get in.

I bought the tickets for Inter v Roma 2 days before the game, without any problems. The ticket has your name on it, and you need to show a valid ID when you get inside the gates.

This is great, all those greedy bastards are phucked now, and people can go and buy tickets without being screwed by them.

I really don't see a reason why you should oppose nominal tickets.

Useless post when it could have been put in one of several threads...

Fabio

P.S But yeah, they don't sound that bad...

[Frisko]

I'm sure we'll survive with the useless post

[Fabio]

Of course we will, so let's make it worthwile and take a look at what the people really think:

Yep, that's nominal tickets fault. Surely not high prices.

Now tell me exactly how nominal tickets are stopping people from accessing the stadium.

And by the way, I don't need your pictures to make this discussion worthwhile, I started a topic to talk about this, your bitchy attitude is uncalled for.

[Hammoudi]

I tried to stay neutral in this thing for a long time, but I really can't take it anymore!

Fabio, stop being a like a mother-in-law and chase Frisko around and respond stupidly to anything he posts. Enough is enough, he has shows maturity and respect, and you just disrespect him.

[snake]

can i jsut say, why is there a picture of Juve stadium all empty? Ill tell ya, its not due to nominal, or high priced tickets. They just dont get anyone

[Kato]

Yeh I was gona say, the Juve fans never turned up before all this, so bit of a bad example there!

And "ladies" put the handbags away

Glad u got ur tickets ok Frisk!!! Not really a useless post though is it, the guys that rip people off with these tickets always bugged me, can only be a good thing that they're now out of business in that respect

[Fabio]

Wtf... You have all known how Frisko is "for" these kind of schemes and I am clearly "against" all this. So when a topic on this issue is raised I like to put my point across. Many fans (yes fans, not just the scary ultras) are unhappy at the whole ticketing system, ranging from tickets prices right through to nominal tickets. So there is what I think...

Mother in law to Frisko?

Can you answer that then please?

[Fabio]

It's not stopping them, it's deterring them and putting people off.

Glad you find me funny too..

Fabio

[Frisko]

How is it deterring them? They can go to the stadium only hours before the game and find a ticket at a reasonable price now. What's to stop them??

[Fabio]

People aren't free hours before the game, many people would prefer to pay 2E to watch the game at whatever camera angle they want on the comfort of their sofa than paying 30E for a seat in the cold weather.

No rest is there, your onto my every answer in something like....2 seconds.

I'm ONTO YOUR EVERY ANSWER? FFS it's a forum Fabio, we discuss things, you know?

What you say has nothing to do with nominal tickets, you're saying that people don't go to the stadium because of high prices or because they have the chance to watch games on TV.

Nominal tickets have nothing to do with it.

[Fabio]

Nominal tickets add to the bother, first you could queue for maybe 15-20 minutes and get your ticket. Simple as. This extra bother is going to bring the crowds back in is it?

Fabio

[Frisko]

Fabio your point is very weak and you know it, who the hell is going to be bothered by a 15-20 minutes waiting time? When you can get a ticket for 28 euros instead of 60 from a bastard who can always give you a fake ticket?

[Fabio]

Nope, my point is not weak - it just seems you no longer want to face it. It would be simple, if all the Interisti in Milan didn't work and had hours of free time, of course they wouldn't mind lining up for the tickets, if people making trips to see Inter from abroad weren't on tight schedules , of course they would not mind lining up to buy their tickets.

At the end of the day, biglietti nominali have caused a lot of anger and frustration. The ticket touts outside the stadium are no bother at all if you don't want tickets.

Fabio

[Frisko]

They are, they're ignorant bastards who take advantage of people who don't know their way very well, especially foreigners.

I was in line at the gates once and this guy was begging the policeman to let him in, after an asshole sold him a fake ticket outside the stadium for a ridiculous price. He came all the way from Sweden to watch the game.

They are a bother. And if you want a ticket, you have to queue, always. That's just the way it is.

If you're telling me that we're losing thousands of fans inside the stadia all over Italy because they can't be bothered to wait for 15 minutes to get a ticket, I just laugh at you!

Believe me, your point is VERY weak.

[Fabio]

My point is very weak in your eyes and vice versa. People have been late for games just to get into the stadium! Because getting in has been so damn confusing...

Everyone knows what touts do, people should know that anyway.

Actually Frisko point is more valid, the tickets prices in Italy have risen a lot, and thats the main reason why stadiums are so empty these days. I read a few days ago, that some milanese fans had decided to quit going to sansiro for Milan's game, as a sign of protest over the increased tickets prices. Nominal tickets had nothing to do with it.
But then again, People buy tickets in black from these bastards, when the stadiums r full and their are no more tickets available. If the stadiums remain empty, then why would anyone bother to buy tickets from these idiots, knowing that they can get the same tickets at the stadium for a much lesser price, even 5 minutes before the game.
