  1. That's not true. It's a common response by the Leavers to say that there were just as many inaccuracies on both sides of the debate but there was only one side that don't don't have a clue what to do if the vote went their way. Osborne ceased to be chancellor the instant that Cameron resigned so you can't call it a lie and there was very prompt action by the BofE and we have an Autumn Statement to look forward to. People are entitled and free to make their choice even if they don't have a reason. That is their right. Bullshît means bullshît. (Stupid statement isn't it?)
  2. I don't think you actually need to register. I registered with Inter but I think it was only for their 'Interisti' section which appears to be for those who like to be associated with Inter but doesn't actually have anything to do with tickets. If you really want to you can apply for a 'Siamo Noi' card but that is more for regular attendances. For instance, I went through a trial sequence of buying a ticket for their home game with Hapoel BS and got as far as the payment part and met no restrictions even if I put my nationality as English or Israeli. I wasn't logged in for this trial. If you buy these tickets they are emailed in pdf form. Our match is not on sale yet except in a bundle of three but that is only for their season ticket holders. We shall need to keep a regular watch on their website and grab the tickets as soon as they go on sale. In my case this will probably be either when I'm in Florida or cruising through the Panama Canal which is going to be a challenge. The alternative is to get a ticket nearer the time from one of the over 500 ticket outlets throughout Italy. There is a map at the bottom of this page: http://www.inter.it/en/biglietteria and a list here: http://www.inter.it/it/servizi_abbonamenti/punti-vendita From their FAQs: "Is it necessary to have a Fan Card in order to go to the San Siro to watch Inter? No. The card is required to buy a season ticket and, as a general rule, you must have a card if you are an Italian citizen living in the region of the opposing team. For example, Italian residents of Sardinia must have a card in order to be able to go to Inter v Cagliari, whilst residents of Piedmont must have one for Inter v Torino, residents of Campania for Inter v Napoli, residents of Emilia Romagna for Inter v Sassuolo, Inter v Parma and Inter v Cesena. The same system applies to all teams/regions. For Inter v Atalanta games, only residents of the province of Bergamo must have a card, whilst for the Inter v AC Milan derby, there are no restrictions in place."
  3. I would assume that they're going to play safe. It's no skin off their noses to restrict our numbers and make their jobs easier.
  4. Not at all. I heard no misconceptions from those who wanted to remain. Primarily because they wanted the status quo.
  5. Cinnamon means cinnamon.
  6. I am an ST with no aways so I don't know where I stand. Or should that be 'sit'? I have only booked travel and hotels so far. If I can't get a Saints ticket I shall sit on the halfway line.
  7. For my response I am reminded of the Life of Brian. 'But how shall we fûck off oh Lord?'
  8. Totally agree. The problem lies within the Home Office who, despite all the government's attempts, have no stomach or desire to do anything about reducing the numbers.
  9. They didn't, that is what is called 'democracy'. Can this please be the last of this 'loser' and 'winners' mentality which, quite frankly, belongs in the school playground where it belongs. There are no winners in this sorry mess.
  10. ...and totally irrelevant.
  11. Dogschitt means DogSchitt whereas Catschitt means Catschitt. Everybody knows that
  12. Nothing to to with my views. Ask anybody abroad and they will tell without any justification you that English fans are troublemakers. It's also a common theme amongst the UK media.
  13. I think those who voted to leave all voted for different reasons. I have heard all sorts of motivations given, most of them full of misconceptions.
  14. There are a few of us in the hotel Raffaello.
  15. I found this guide but I don't knoiw how reliable it is. http://www.football-stadiums.co.uk/grounds/italy/san-siro/
  16. I have repeatedly made the point about trying and failing to control net migration from the rest of the world. Presumably after Brexit all these illegal Indian immigrants will be repatriated? 'arrogance of the Remain camp'? That's a bit rich.
  17. What does it have to do with him? He is not elected and has no more democratic mandate to speak for anybody than I do. That doesn't stop the BBC dragging him in at every opportunity. Breakfast means Breakfast
  18. Present company excepted, I was thinking about English football fans in general and their perceived reputation abroad.
  19. Thanks for the offer SG but I think I read that the club is only going to send the tickets to the registered address of the supporter but I can't find the link at the moment. My daughter lives nearby so I may be able to get it sent to her address. Ah, here it is: http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/20160901-europa-league-tickets-internazionale-southampton-3285334.aspx
  20. Correct. The bundle of all three games is only on sale to season ticket holders until 18:00 Thursday 15th September.
  21. Good point,. If someone, well done the referee
  22. Having had another look I don't think that the registration was anything to do with buying tickets for games, more just signing up for a general online account. I have made a trial run for the Hapoel game at Inter and I got as far as making the payment. From this it would seem that the Italian restrictions are dependent on where you live if you're an Italian citizen. If you live in the region of the opposing team then you need a fan card. These FAQs answer some questions: http://www.inter.it/en/stadio/ticket-FAQs Tickets can be bought online or at one of loads of ticket agencies which are shown on the map at the bottom of this page: http://www.inter.it/en/biglietteria
  23. Me too, he was very good today. I don't think you can blame the keeper. Sometimes the easiest way to score is a shot between his legs.
  24. Well done! I've been dallying with the idea of getting a Siamo Noi card but there are drawbacks. First, I'd have to have it delivered in the next three weeks because I'm out of the country after that until the day before I fly out for the game. Then I'd need to get it authenticated before the match and I'd assume that if they had sent me a card then I could'nt have a print at home ticket but would have to use the card. I think I'll wait until tickets go on sale and then see what happens.
  25. Which can be self-fulfilling if ticket allocation is restricted to those who go to the most away games, primarily the younger, single male intent of having a 'good time'.
