Are there teams that are all but impossible to get cost effective tickets for?

Yes, the Premier League overall has really high attendance and therefore the big clubs like Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal & Chelsea will almost never have availability at general sale as they all get sold to season ticket and club card members. Same goes for Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in Germany.

PSG are tough at the moment as they have so much talent but I think when/if they lose Mbappe, Neymar and Messi they will go back to being easy enough to get tickets for.

Real Madrid in Spain are tricky because they release to general sale very close to the match day so its often difficult to plan for.

What are the arguments for supporting a sport that is as toxic as soccer is? There's good people among the fans, for sure. But there's a culture of violence connected to the sport. Also the money involved is increasingly governing the sport, as with many other high profile sports, when in fact such money could do so much good if they were spent differently. Do you have any moral qualms actively supporting soccer and spending your money on it?

Yes, absolutely theres always going to be questions of morality and where your money goes when you support big organisations which is what most football clubs are these days. The recent world cup being a good example of us all having to answer that question.

I would counter by saying I have lived in multiple countries and continents and I have always used football as a tool to connect with people and it has made my life better through those connections so although there are challenges with it I think the good can outweigh the bad.

Fascinating service you provide! I've seen your ads on my Instagram so nice to see you guys now post here.

Speaking of adverts, how do you guys make money from this? Very curious.

Glad to hear you are familiar with us!

We offer a free version of the newsletter that contains probably 25-30 offers each week and then we also offer a paid for newsletter that has about 6X as many fixtures.

We would love to ultimately make all fixtures available to everyone who signs up but that is our only means of income to the business so we need some revenue to host the service.

They get commissions from hotels and flights at the very least.

I should add Freiburg and Union Berlin have become really difficult to see at home this season as they are performing very well and Union Berlin has an amazing stadium.

Seem more like an ad than a IAMA. isn't it?

We recently got a hotel partner which provides good commission but we don't really promote hotels tbh so we haven't really seen anything from that, hopefully in the future.

Regarding flights, we would love to see commission there but of the big flight metasearch engines or airlines require much higher traffic to consider affiliate partnership (approx. 300k/month traffic minimum)

So how many of the LADS ON TOUR that join your crews cause havoc across Europe?

Unfortunately this is the most interesting thing about me and is what I spend my days doing.

None to our knowledge.

I think a lot of what you are referring to is big away day support that turns violent which is by far my least favourite part about football. A lot of our audience is small groups of friends, parents with their kids that or couples that are looking for a weekend away with a game in a different city.

I appreciate your reply, and I will definitely acknowledge that good relations can come from participation in a given hobby/interest. I'll counter again by saying that good is not exactly to the benefit of workers that died in Qatar. For me soccer has grown beyond what I consider a moral endeavour. And I would never support organised soccer again personally. Playing it or enjoying it at small scale for instance in local clubs, that is something I don't mind as much.

Thank you.

As an Australian gunners fan, I'm hoping to one day see an Arsenal game.

(I used to live in Munich so I've been to plenty of 1860 and Bayern games, and Olympiakos in Athens when I lived there)
