A Scottish private school in Dundee has been made with several tens of tickets for the De Champions League between him Newcastle United and the FC Barcelonaangry at local fans. In total, this school located more than 200 kilometers from Newcastle has been made with 45 tickets for one of the most demanding meetings of the Newcastle, because it is its return to the continental competition two years later and because they will face Barça, one of the teams with the greatest pedigree in the old continent.
Upon learning that “an authorized supplier” offered these entries to school, the main Newcastle fans – Newcastle United Supporter’s Trust – has raised a complaint. “We do not say that we do not want the young fans in the stadium and that they can experience these matches,” said Lisa Mole, president of the association. “I think there is a consensus of how bad the situation is with the entries and this only adds firewood to the fire. We have people who pay a membership to the club every year and are not guaranteed an entrance and we also have members who contacted us when they did not get tickets last time in the raffle.”
The school defends itself
“It is a raffle, so people are not guaranteed an entry, so it hurts when people who do not have to be fond of the team receive the opportunity to go to this kind of meeting,” Mole added. The school said they have bought them as part of a “group package” and that an authorized seller was sold, not the club directly. Students of this school already attended a meeting between the Newcastle and Milan in 2023.
