Anyone, ANYONE, with a spare ticket, please PM me. This is getting ridiculous, this scramble for every game. I'm desperate here lads, all the usual contacts have deserted me.

people just seem to be now using the charity thing competing to see who can get a ticket ... if peolpe were genuine about the charity donation they probably donate during the year anyway ... touts are the way forward my friends ... if you dont mind missing five minutes of the game or so you will be fine ..Quote:

Stop trying to use the sympathy card! Loads of us don't have tickets for tonights game, the harsh reality is that you just have to accept it!!!
You're aving a giraffe mate.Quote:

Agree with that 100%,just cos we can't get tickets doesn't make us any less a fan.Also there will be a few at the game taking up the space of the "real fan" :mad:Quote:

Put the toys back in the pram and deal with it lad. You'll probably pick one up outside for a little over the odds from the touts if you're willing to let the clock tick down.Quote:

There are people on here who for example are paying €800 to €1200 to go to Cyprus in October, when there are packages available for €600 and it costs about the same to organise it yourself. These are fans who go to games regularly. If they are prepared to pay travel companies ridiculous prices for the trip to Cyprus, there is no difference in any of ye going to a tout and handing him say €300 for a match ticket. People will pay it to travel companies who are ripping them off needlessly, whereas they refuse to buy off of touts out of principle. It doesn't make sense. The bottom line is, if you really want to see the game you have to pay the touts. Failing that, get the Gardai to take the tickets off of the touts. There was a load of Gardai doing it for youngfellas on the way in to the Italy game. You never know, if there are charity collectors & buckets around Lansdowne, approach the Gardai with a similar offer of donation to charity. All they can say is no....
Hey boys, give the guy a break, he's obviously desperate to go along, fair play donal81, stick at it, someone will come good or you'll get something from someone, i'll keep you in mind if i come across any. Don't mind these armchair supporters...Quote:

Where did you get yours? Work???
Just out of a meeting, hence the delay in replying. I was just saying how much I wanted to go, for f*ck's sake. You're a nice bunch around here, alright!
Fair enough Donal81, but you have to admit there's a difference between being desperate to go and begging, remember people who have tickets are probably being asked by about 10 other people a day for tickets, it doesn't get easier to say no!
anyone have luck with that person who just offered tkt?
Whatever, I was just saying I wanted to go and didn't expect to be told to just get over it, etc, etc.Quote:
