Nucky Thompson Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 My Jambo, Liverpool supporting mate paid over 50 bucks and left at half time Tried to persuade me to go but told him to feck off.

luckydug Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I wonder what made people think this game would be worth these prices. Friendlies are just that no matter what teams are playing. If they had been charging a tenner at the most I might have been tempted but clearly there are lots of people with more money than sense.

Napoli where very good, moved the ball well and the performance of the wee left winger Insigne was worth the entry fee alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a ticket for the East Fife game but couldn’t make it. Paid £28 for my ticket today to see the European champions, not the worst game I’ve seen, however, Liverpool had no cutting edge without their front three. Don’t do friendlies usually but this was a one off. Decent atmosphere at the game until Napoli scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember it's for arseholes. Nice touch at the end of the game with the lap of thanks. Handed out lots of merchandise to the young ones at the front who were clearly thrilled. That makes the aggregate score 5-3 from the pre-season games so LFC win again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a time when Scottish football is skint people are happy to boost the bank accounts of mega rich English/foreign clubs by paying inflated prices for entry to an exhibition match. If Hearts asked for an extra tenner for a big match the fans would kick up ****. It all about personal choice of course but it's not mine. Some football fans nowadays are no better than starstruck teenagers at a pop concert. Football at our level is heading down the shitter. TV and big business have taken over.

pablo Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I always love the indignation of the plastic English club supporters when they're called out. Nobody is saying that you don't have the right to go, nobody is saying that you can't enjoy yourself. Just that you're a plastic fan, not that you'll ever admit it obviously.

The Fox Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Anyone go to the so called fanzone? Arrivedat 130pm to discover 1. No bar or alcoholic drinks sold 2. Photos with champions league cup queue had closed by 2pm. 3. Was nothing there but food stalls and a singer Worse thing was once in there you couldn't get out without losing your ticket. Missed a trick there as loads of families there who never go to football. Big disappointment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is saying that you don't have the right to go, nobody is saying that you can't enjoy yourself. Just that you're a plastic fan, not that you'll ever admit it obviously. So you enjoy laying into some fellow Hearts fans then The childish 'plastic' insult is just that... an insult from a child. I'm happy to say I like football, happy to say I also like football from other sides rather than my own (and please don't act silly and say it's not Hearts) and I'm happy to say that only my own side gives me that little bit extra in terms of feelings both up and down when watching live or otherwise. I do though follow Liverpool for many reasons including family reasons and have done so for decades and am happy when they win but it's not the same as Hearts (but it is more than any other club side). There will be quite a few posters on here who are like that (though of course there may be other teams involved) Not always of course but often it's a basic insecurity that posters who talk about plastic fans have as they seek to feel better about themselves by taking out life's frustrations on others and seeking that little bit of support from small groups who really are no more than trolls but they have that comfort blanket they seek to make themselves feel better. Help is out there , seek it and build up enough confidence in yourself that you'll no longer need to 'attack' those fans and why is it you and others never call out the 'plastic' Napoli, Roma, Real Madrid or Barcelona fans for example ..is it just an anti anything English thing ?
