What you in for mate? Murder, you? Gave my Carabao Cup first round Pompey (H) ticket to my Nan 🥴
Selling a spare football ticket can be a criminal offence, even at face value and even to a mate. Football is treated differently to other sports and events. A ticket issue can mean a fine, a criminal record and a banning order. #footballlaw #fbo #footballfans

It’s alright for them to sing what they like about Harry Kane, probably others too, though. I love McGinn, and i love Scots, but this victimhood needs to stop. Can say what you like about England but the second we give anything back or do exactly what you’re doing it’s the end of the world, suddenly you’re all innocent and pure, and the English are the big bad bullies. Piss off, man. If you’re taking football chants seriously, it’s not the sport for you.
Football banter is great, and I'm all for it. However, the England fans' chant in Dallas suggesting John McGinn is a sex offender is false and in very bad taste. That cannot be classed as banter.

Cheap jokes instead of cheap tickets.
FIFA President on 2022 FIFA World Cup “For the first time in history, no Brit was arrested during a World Cup.” Because there were no alcohol.

Whilst unsurprisingly the group games are oversubscribed, as well as the possible glamour tie in Mexico City in the R16, the numbers for the semi-final and final speak for themselves. England fans will gamble on getting a $60 ticket, but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see a huge drop in numbers if members don’t get their hands on one of them. The football mentality is if tickets sell, there isn’t a problem, we see this all the time. But the numbers are reflective of a fan base that has been priced out, and some of the most loyal supporters of the international game feel completely let down. Alarm bells should be ringing whenever participating member allocations, meant for the most loyal fans, are not sold out for any game at a World Cup. This is especially concerning when the allocations for games are so low, and England have a membership of over 30,000. This isn’t acceptable.

On World Cup ticket prices, dynamic pricing & ticket scalping for profit. It's a huge problem. The average fan gets priced out. The fans who are most responsible for creating atmosphere are priced out. Unfortunately nothing new in American sports, but something needs to change.
