Why? Because these fans go to cause trouble. That's more important to them than the game.

Maybe if hooligans didn't try to start fights for no reason, clubs wouldn't have to limit the tickets sold.
I guess that's why AFL doesn't have home & away sections. People don't feel the need to fight with people unwarranted.

Again, why are 1,000 people all turning up together to a match without tickets? Surely they know that they don't really have a hope in that many tickets just magically appearing for them all to sit together!!!

Some fans do go to cause trouble, other just want to watch the game.
Grounds only hold certain amounts. This game is a sell out, should they sell tickets to seats that don't exist.
Obviously, 1,000 aren't going to appear but you only need 1 to appear.

Ipswich v Millwall was a sell out, Northampton v Millwall was an all ticket game, a sell out to away fans and members only for home fans.
But if you (and I assume others) got it, they weren't real sell outs were they.
All tickets were sold = SELL OUT!!
Ipswich - I found another Millwall fan with a spare.
Northampton - the opened an extra section that wasn't going to be open previously.
How did the Ipswich Millwall fan pick you out from the other 1,000?

you said "in the flesh" not on you tube.
Did you check their passports?
Next time I'll have to remember to ask the pommy accented, skinheads wearing Doc Martens boots chanting for the English side to show me their passports whilst they're in the thick of it.

they might have been aussie citizens.
Maybe, but it was clear where their blood lines were from. And no, I didnt ask for birth certificates either, but if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, looks like a duck, then its a good chance its a duck.
