I hope @The original gezza wasn't too hasty handing his ticket back...

This is an interesting dilemma but I'm speaking from a position of having booked my flights and expecting to be in it myself. Now i got lucky and got an away ticket, but was going to do exactly this. Giacomo, my Italian former colleague/friend in London who is an avid Roma fan and member said...

At the end of the day, a STH takes priority of those people because their financial commitment is up front and they take the financial risk of a shite season. That's the difference.

My advice would be to ignore the advice of anyone on here who had away end tickets for all the Euro games but actually read carefully the experiences of those that didn't for at least one of the games. There is nothing more nauseating than reading people's opinions when they are safe in the...

Because as a STH you have accrued those points before a ball has been kicked, thus taking the chance that the season was absolute shite. It's the ultimate financial loyalty Anyone can accrue points following a winning team.

There are loads going without tickets. I suspect a lot of them will try and get in the home end. Try the Tribuna Monte Mario - relaxed home end area, with blocks near the away pen.

You didn't register and were told you couldn't buy a ticket? Nothing inconsistent about that. Or are you saying you then did buy a ticket?

Alternatively, the fact that it's nearly sold out before getting anywhere near Albion+ members with loads of points who bothered to register means they shouldn't.

I'm not blaming you. But consistency in how things are handle is so important for these occasions.

My feeling is that whoever allowed that person to just jump in without registering should be hauled over the coals. It's makes a mockery of the process. And I agree with you that if people should be allowed to jump in having forgotten to register, there needs to be consistency over how it's done.

It guess it must depend on demand. They've presumably decided that it caused problems last time so for this match it's either registration or no ticket. :shrug:

That was me, via my mate Giacomo (who lives in London but is a fanatical Roma fan and member).

I'm not sure, I think STH is tier 4 (3pm). They might be alright.

Well if you were acting like a nob, yes. But a discrete enquiry, I'm not so sure.

Well yes, but a clown nonetheless. :thumbsup:

Ah you spotted my thread on their site?

It has occurred to me the best option is to just buy in the home end and ask to be moved

Yeah but you're an absolute clown, remember?

No chance. There will be around 500 left disappointed IMO. I suspect the delay was partly because a delegation was in Rome trying and failing to get more tickets!

It'll be what @Bozza said. If Italian police haven't got the resources in these austere times, they'll have put their foot down on the matter. It's got nothing to do with numbers in the away section and everything to do with policing large numbers of football fans in the city.
