Then our owners wouldn't be NSWE, but NSEW, which is the order I normally use for the points of the compass. I'm just glad he isn't called Frank Wilson or I'd not be able to access VT from work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin fees are literally what e-tickets are supposed to eliminate, cuz there's no **** human involved. It should be illegal. I'd say the bosses are sitting there whistling innocently, wondering how the jayzus they've gotten away with it for so long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 mine was in german and I was automatically taken there so I just kind of went with it rather than trying to look elsewhere they had about 9 delivery options too (at least they didn't charge me for printing them off) I have a shoe box with 20 years worth of gig tickets at home (and a villa one) most of them ripped and worn, some of them battered, collectors edition to me isn't just ticketmaster and their ilk its telling me where the crowd is headed too (it was for liam Gallagher) the people that buy those tickets will stand in front of me and film the gig on their phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clearly the BBC trying to shoehorn two media darlings into a headline they've no business being in. Get Liverpool into any article and your view count goes through the roof.
