All ticket/travel information thread - 2009/10: Touting will not be tolerated

Chances of getting a single off Viagogo?

If you have patience, are prepared to spend hours refreshing and then be ultra quick with your details you have a chance. On the bright side I remember that tickets were easily got of Viagogo for both Man City and Arsenal this season which was very strange and a sign of the times I suppose.
 
2 tickets available for rearranged West Ham match on Tuesday Feb 23rd.
East Stand - E234 - face value of £36each.

PM me if interested.

I thought these had been taken but they are available again.

PM if interested
 
OK don't want to seem like a whining cnut but do you think that I am able to get tickets for the Milan(away) game from here.. All the online ticket places have prices over 200€ for the away fans and I think that should only be my last option.. Much prefer to buy them from another fan who is unable to go...
 
Apparantly there will be spares on the day of the game. Are you prepared to head up ticketless?

Yep flights and a hostel already booked.. Should I look for spares outside the stadium or in the city centre? it's my first time in Milan(or Italy for that matter) so don't know much about the city..

Just head to Duomo Square on the day of the game and you should get sorted, there are 4,500 for this one so it shouldn't be a big issue. Just mingle and ask about.
 
Has anybody received their Milan away tickets yet?

They were supposed to be posted out via special delivery on Monday?
 
Does anybody know when the results are available for the Milan game at OT? I know the deadline passed on Monday, but I don't know whether I've been successful.
 
Still waiting on mine as well mate. Asked a few lads at tonight's game and they were in the same boat. Standard fecking TO, useless.

At least it's not just me then. I even made sure they received my travel report, as I called them to check.

Will ring them tomorrow find out what's stalling, I have no time to be at home or collect Friday and Saturday.

They haven't charged me for the special delivery either, which is a bit strange.

I did the same, was worrying the Travel Report hadn't been successful or something. Might just be a postal thing.

If they aren't here by Friday I will be worried as I'm heading down to my grandparents near Gatwick at the weekend for my flight on Monday.
 
Single for Milan Away available if anyone is interested, can post Special Delivery once in hand today or tomorrow.

PM me if interested, first come first served...
 
I just phoned them up and they gave me a tracking number.

I checked it and it said it was out for delivery and I should receive it shortly.

All is well it seems.

I've applied for tickets to the Utd v Milan game at OT. If I'm successful it will be the first Utd game I've been to see live, so I would appreciate some help regarding travel.

Firstly what's the best way to get to Old Trafford from Manchester Piccadilly station? Also once the game finishes, is there any chance of getting back to London, via coach/train or would I be better of checking in to a hotel for the night?

On my first game I posted the same thoughts, I took Ralphie's advice and chose the train from Oxford to Old Trafford. Worked out great and I'm pretty sure the same train stops at Piccadilly. Only costs £2.5. Other suggestions were the tram or a taxi, the taxi doesn't seem a good idea if you need to get out of the ground in a hurry. Nasty traffic. Thanks again Ralphie :).

Most hotels in Manchester are fully booked that night. But anyway I think you'll find services to London from Piccadilly well after the match.

I'm not too sure about that mate.
 
Thank you for the help. Can anyone be more specific as to whether or not I could get back to London after the game?

If my research is correct it seems train is not a viable option. But are there any bus companies that make the trip to London after the game?

Yes I'm almost certain train is not an option that late.There are buses that make the journey but sorry I don't have any details on that.
 
The only route I have back home on that day is a coach from Chorlton bus station. Can anyone tell me how far that is from the stadium?
