Speaking of Touting. LFC are coming out to play my adopted Aussie team, Melbourne Victory in july. I had no intention of going as all the "big" freindlies that have taken place (Juve, Boca Jnrs, Fulham..the exception being Celtic) have been fuckin awful in terms of atmosphere and football in light of the squads that have been sent over. Promises of Riqueleme, Palermo etc never materialised. The other reason for not wanting to attend is that the match is to take place at the MCG, which from a spectating POV is an absolute joke due to the size of a football pitch on a big old cricket oval.
Anyhow, tickets went on sale to Season ticket holders (of which i am one) at 9am Thurs morn. The active tickets sold out in 8 mins and season ticket holders did not get preferential status, the touts were able to buy up in lots of 10 at a go. Consequently, the cunts are now selling them at $100 and upwards for $25 tickets.
MV get a token amount of cash for playing LFC. The promoter and LFC are making a killing on this one. All the more reason to hate the fuckers.
60.000 tickets sold on the 1st day. LFC are not getting any thing from me (thank fuck).
