Re: REPORT: A long day out and another defeat

Feels like there's something shifty going on with away tickets this year. We had the Burnley end at Arsenal full of tourists, sold out games at City and Palace that were nowhere near full. Are tickets disappearing to third parties? I'm sure there's good money to be made from "football tourists", par...
