He's clearly got a concussion and it has nothing to do with Man U.

 

Sure I heard in Koemans interview that he took a kick to the hip, but I may have misheard...

He did, and then when he came back on he got clattered and whacked his head (apparently, I haven't seen it back).

Any news on Mane's injury - especially in relation to Thursday?

 

If Mane has a concussion even a mild one you can almost guarantee he won't be risked on Thursday.

Ffs. Arriving later and time's a bit tight to go into Herning itself.

 

That's a really poor show from the club if you are arriving later. I'm not sure how you could have known about this arrangement before you booked your flights etc.

this ticket arrangement could end in tears fora some

 

are they not allowing saints fans to collect from their stadium? would make so much sense

Yep; also ended up taking the longer train service from Copenhagen airport rather than d**king around with replacement buses. If only I had known before.

as ground if 40 mins walk from centre makes sense to have them collected in Centre of town, however as kick off is 8.45 why 5Pm cut off surely would be ok until at lease 6Pm which is still 2hrs 45mins before kick off, and any later arrivals then pick up at ground

The club replied to someone on twitter saying one person can pick up tickets for their group if they have all the IDs. Not what they were saying to start with, so people could have used other people's season tickets.

You can jump on the train from Herning St to the station outside the ground (Herning Messecenter St.) takes 2 mins.

no good if you wanted to travel down and collect tickets though, as only one train an hour down and back 49 mins to hour down and 16 mins past back, as ground 10 - 15 mins walk from Arena station would take an hour an a half to collect tickets

:lol: so after insisting you have to collect tickets, they go and say that one person can collect on behalf of all. How does that ensure you have attended exactly?

Well you would still have to go with the person who is eligible and take the photo id of other eligible people.

Someone not going could just give their ID to someone who is.

But that person wouldn't be able to pick it up unless they are eligible themselves. Unless they are allowing anyone with the photo id of an eligible person to pick it up which I doubt.

Me.

 

Where's everyone heading on the Thursday? Looks to be a few decent watering holes

Yep I am going ladysaint staying at the Hotel Herning which is 400 yards from the stadium. Haven't a clue how far the hotel Scandic Regina where we pick up our tickets is though

The Scandic is right outside the main train station.

This picking up ticket lark is ridiculous

 

It's worked very well at restricting the tickets to the people who have actually qualified for them. It will also make allocations a lot simpler for the rest of the tournament if we get through Thursday.

 

As for the "collect with ID" rules, they've also done well with that, making them restrictive to stop people cheating the rules and then relaxing the restrictions when the tickets were sold to make collection easier for people.

Because unless you weren't eligible, took a gamble on them changing the ID rules, had already got someone else to buy a ticket for you and forked out for travel to Denmark and back on the off chance, you wouldn't be affected by this change.

 

They're not remotely interested in whether you actually go, only in discouraging people from passing tickets on. They've been very successful.

I think I booked train tickets to the station nearest the ground so that's a fat lot of help. It is farcical the way the ticket distribution has been organised.

Have you been offically told where to collect ticket from as I haven't been informed

Seems very well organised to meet the needs of the majority to me. In fact almost exactly what me and Steve Grant predicted between us - me with the times and Steve with the venue.

Has anyone, officially?

Definitely: can understand the venue to an extent. But the times make little sense.
