Away fans in the home end.

[Essex Spur]

Corporate is always a difficult one to manage.
One of our suppliers has a box at the Emirates and I got offered a ticket for Arse v Huddersfield. It was my daughter's birthday so it was a no go, let alone it being the scum, regardless of free food/drink.
Usually with things like that they give one game to each sales-person (or similar) from the company and they can invite whoever they want.
End of the day they're there to entertain their customers, regardless of who's playing. Oh look, I got all three spellings right!!!

I remember going to Anfield for one of our games back in 94/95.
Went with my younger brother, a guy from work and one of his mates. Me and my bro obviously Spurs, other two Liverpool fans - and all four of us sat together in the away end!!!
I think they were the only two who didn't celebrate when we went 1-0 up, and they did f'ing well to stay quiet when Liverpool went on to win the game - at least until we were out of the stadium.

I was in corporate (right next to the executive box) at West ham and celebrated when Eriksen made it 3 - 0 a few years ago by claping politey (really) and got threatend to have my head kicked in, I pretended to be netural after that

Theres always away fans in the home sections and there has been for years but they always used to keep it shut and not let it be know that much. Now we have a couple of reasons this is happening more. There are so many tourist fans at the ground that dont see anything wrong with wearing the colours of the away team and sitting in the home end. The other reason its happening more is season ticket holders selling their tickets and not going to the bloody games themselves.
Around where i sit id say about half the tickets are used by the same people game in game out, some of the other seats i couldnt tell you who the holder actually is. There's got to be a limit on how many times you can list your ticket on the resale site at very least and if they are touting them there needs to be a way of catching them out. Some up there dont deserve a season ticket.

I also blame half and half scarves.

Away fans in home areas - THST update

We’ve had an increasing number of questions about away fans in home areas at our new stadium, so we have spent some time trying to get a detailed answer from the Club about how this issue is dealt...

I own tickets in the corporate section of the stadium and it is clear that away fans are allowed when you purchase them, The ex players etc call out for them in the lounge and engage with them, this is why I purchased tickets there to have a more gentlemany experience that I can take friends and clients too.

I was dissapointed to hear that the guests who had my tickets at the Liverpool game felt intimidated ! they didnt celebrate or sing or anything like that but was getting abuse. One of the guests was on his 4th visit to the stadium.

I dont like the idea of away fans in a clear home end ie south stand and if they are jumoping up and down singing etc! but if you purchase tickets in a corporate section dont be suprised to see supporters of all teams there

Corporate is a completely different kettle of fish. By definition you have loads of people there who aren't fans - that's pretty much the point in corporate boxes taking clients etc so I don't see that as an issue. Anyone who buys corporate tickets and is then surprised that there are non-spurs fans there is a moron.

Was in corporate few years back for Lge cup semi v Shef Utd (2015). Ledley King came in half way through second half and think I was the only one in the box who recognised him

Plus side for me was that I got to spend a good 15mins chatting with him on my own while we watched the game (absolute legend).

Apathy is causing fans to sell tickets on the exchange because we’re shit and have been since this time last year. It only needs a small percentage of fans to say ‘fuck it’ in a stadium of that size and it’s no surprise away fans then start picking them up.

Plenty of mates I know who have families and only go to the odd game when they can get a ticket on the exchange just aren’t interested in spending that sort of money to see the players perform like they have been.

The club could probably do more about new people taking out One Hotspur memberships in the season though.
