Re: 5AM Start for WEST HAM - MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

1000 empty seats and a banner, protesting about our treatment.
3000 or so city fans in a pub near by. The players will understand.

Iv hered that they are considering a boycot, apparantly the club and fans group are thinking of rejecting the 1000 tickets. This in effect will mean we are banned/boycott of the game.

Dont shoot the messenger, but it looks like nobody will be going.

Like I said this isnt a fact but came from a friend of someone who runs buses in the Travel Club.

i hope we treat west ham the same way when we play them at the ccs :evil:

Re: 5AM Start for WEST HAM - MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be there whatever time they want us to leave it's the 1st game of the season and no bubble or met police is gonna stop me from watching Cardiff City :ayatollah:

I feel the same mate, last chance to visit Upton Park.

Ifs its a stand off though and the club refuse the 1000 tickets I cant see the Met backing down over threads of protests.

Have to wait and see, im sure Carl and Vince will update us with whats going on.. :ayatollah:

Re: 5AM Start for WEST HAM - MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thu Jul 14, 2011 8:22 pm

how are they fairly going to distribute only 1000 tickets???? will they go back to last seasons away matches??

Im busting to go, first game of season, new era, ground ive never been to but always wanted to visit. i dont care if i have to meet at whatever oclock i just want to be there to support our club... but 1000 tkts is shocking... 34000 hammers and 1000 of us.. if it is a full bubble then y the reduced allowance??

its a joke... yet millwall etc can travel to cardiff however they want, leeds also... pisses me off...

:angry5: :angry4: :nono: :thumbdown:

Re: 5AM Start for WEST HAM - MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard West Ham were giving Millwall 2000 tkts what the f**k is going on, surely the Millwall game has a bigger potential to kick off?

if this is correct then what a f*cking joke...

@Blackwood.

Yeah mate, they will have to go back to renewing ambassadors who went to the most away games Last Season.

This is the reason why I can see it being a total boycott as there wont be enough supply for demand, puts a lot of pressure on the Travel Group Reps then.

that sucks big time, but i suppose it it the only fair way to do things... i got promoted last yr to a managers role , which meant working most saturdays... now im in charge of the rotas i can get back to going to more away games... be gutting to miss the first game this yr.. havnt missed one since i can remember..

total boycott does seem likely ...

I'll be there, what ever the outcome of the travel meeting.

I really want to go to away matches this season and see some famous grounds but its shit like this makes it intolerable to me. God know what time I'd have to get up to drive from Carmarthen to CCS and then go all the way to East London in a bus seat that I can't fit in...being a lanky git standing at 6ft and 3 1/2 inches does have its drawbacks.

I hope the Club do it.

West Ham will be £30k out of pocket, they will be plastered all over the press
and for once, this Club can take the moral high ground. The Met are a disgrace.
Lording it over our fans. Lets not forget that they left a road wide open last
year at Chelsea, let Chelsea and Cardiff fans clash deliberately. Now they are
going to pay the price for falsifying CCTV recordings

f**k West Ham, f**k the Met..

more seats for our supporters when we invent ridiculous travelling arrangements
for the super scary ICF

Maybe:

They have to meet at Birmingham International for their tickets ( at 3am )
They have to be in possession of a jar of jellied eels
They have to prove they knew one of the Krays
They get escorted in by a gang of Terrapins off Roath Park lake, at 1Mile per week

Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:15 pm

it is a piss take, we will end up with a season full of bubbles again, something we have worked hard to eradicate over the last few seasons and many fans will now miss out on watching some top games..

birmingham, leeds, millwall , west ham etc... if they keep reducing our ticket allowance, then the qualifying scheme is going to be a mockery...

Re: 5AM Start for WEST HAM - MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:16 pm

According to CCMB it is West Hams SAG that are causing the probs.

Its either going to be the 1000 tickets to renewing ambasadors who went to 6 or more aways last season or a total ban.

As yet, nobody seems to know.

Im sure Carl will give a report at some point.. :ayatollah:
