Not enough interest from Jacks for club to organise travel

Tue Sep 17, 2013 1:30 pm

Talking to someone close to Swansea City football club and they said there was not enough interest from their fans for the club to organise official travel to their game against Valencia.

Don't think we would have that problem if we had a European game, don't think we have ever had a problem even when we were in the doldrums of the basement division.

Surprised at that as Valencia is a nice place (perhaps that's what put them off visiting).

Would go if we were playing there.

I'm sure there will be plenty of Jacks out there watching.

Is this the game where its really cheap match tickets ?

I would love to watch Cardiff away in Europe once again, About 1,200 Standard Liege (Belgiium), 600 to Admira Whacker(Austria) and that was when we were getting home crowds of 6,000, imagine playing in Spain in the Cup.

How many were at their last away game in Europe?

£7 a ticket Annis - However thats not including £150 air fare, £150 spends, £100 hotel and time off work. Its a midweek game in Spain.

However you are wrong regarding your info and there will be more than enough jacks out there to be heard :thumbup:

I don't know, but it was hardly an appealing draw. Valencia away is far more appealing.

We can say how wrong it is that they didn't go to the last one but all want tickets for this one, but Cardiff fans would be exactly the same.

Yeah how dare people not want to shell out £600 for a midweek game in Romania we had already won. For shame. Its almost as if they were saving for the 3 proper european ties around the corner.

Weird.

It's a smartarse thing to do amongst certain people, I believe, like the name Barry Chuckle when he actually seems so completely miserable all of the time. A bit of irony and a bit of whatever else.

That's the word. Use it as your username, if you like. Be honest for a change - you might even earn some respect that way.

Yes, really.

You're deluded if you think that going away to some random Romania club, in a game which was pretty much done and dusted, would attract the same sort of interest as going away to Valencia! :laughing6:

It happens domestically too... People fighting for tickets to go away to some games, yet couldn't sell out Hull allocation.

Maybe them they would realise that what I've just said is common sense? :roll:

I don't know, but I predict that they will sell their allocation.

Yeah, I don't think there will be a shortage of Swans fans out there. As for organising official travel, I guess that's because as soon as the fixtures were finalised, most of the lads I know were straight on the internet booking their own flights out there?
