Attending Milan matches

hi!

i'm a member of the ultras rapid vienna, and i would like to visit the derby against inter in april...is there a chance to get tickets for this game? i have heard about the new registration rules for the tickets and so i think it's more difficult then before... what would be the "easiest" way to get tickets for this game?

thanks for answers...greetings from vienna

you can get hold of tickets in Milano with no problems. A game like this will be far from fully seated and there is no worry in getting hold of tickets.

Planning a trip to Milan to see the match against Bayern. Does anyone know if it is possible to get tickets for the match if I arrive Monday afternoon? I'll be arriving in Bergamo, so there's a possibility that I won't be able to get to Milan in time on Monday, but do you think there will be a few tickets available on Tuesday?

i ll be in milano for the matchg Vs Inter.i will be with my girlfriend,so can somebody tell me where i can find two tickets for the curva?

After watching todays game and many of the past games this year since Fossa disbanded the choreographies have been terrible . . . Brigate, Commandos etc have done a terrible job of carrying on this tradition and it is ashame they forced Fossa to disband.

I think the problem is about the younger guys, who get there thinking that the can patronise people just because they are into the Brigate or Fossa. The old school rocks, and whoever has met Il Barone know how calm and nice he is, but they left in the past seasons too much room for a bunch of morons.
My group had some problems with Vecchia Guardia, but finally we were proved right because VG has disappeard from the Curva. Even the Brigate big shots told us they are a bunch of tw@ts. in facts after 6 months they no longer are up there.

I believe all these issues inside the curva has been positive, they have made a sort of cleansing among the groups

I really think the tradition of excellent choreographies has pretty much gone down the toilet since Fossa was dissolved . . its ashame . . . that's only my opinion as an outsider who has no Curva afiliation.

FORZA MILAN

chris i think they are reserving the coreos for the big matches ahead in the final part of the season..the derby and the cl clashes

don't think they will put much effort in the milan lyon draw as well

I think if you had told Luciano (Diavolo) or Il Barone about your problems in the curva, those guys would have been thrown out earlier much earlier.

Anyway, I had another pleasant experience in the curva during my last trip to San Siro for the Bayern match. Some of the Brigate guys remembered me from my previous trip about 4 months back for the Udinese game And there was this guy who asked me for some Japanese translations so that he can tattoo some Kanji on his body

For the Bayern game, some section of the front rows of the curva were reserved for Brescia ultras making the trip to Milano, and I was standing beside the Brescia fans during the match. The guy standing beside me even moved to another row so that I could have more space after knowing that I've travelled more than 3000 miles for the match

Should we beat Lyon and face Barcelona in the semis, and if my work schedule permits, I may consider making another trip to San Siro again for the Barcelona game.

why is the stadium so empty now-a-days ? There hardly ever seems anyone there, i know it's a problem throughout italy (some cases worse than others) but i was just wondering why ? Are the tickets too expensive ? Are people worried about trouble ? Or are they just not bothered about attending matches anymore ?

It's a bit sad to see

genio, i know that many guys there are great persons,that's why i always distinguished upon the cases. But i couldn't ask anyone to solve OUR (as a group) problems down there because it's simply out of Ultras mentality to ask someone to protect you. In facts all the problems started when some members of my group told Il Barone that Vecchia Guardia was a pretty dead group, and it was undecent for a group that stood just next to Brigate (usually the more quiet groups stand in the outer part of the C Sud). These guys felt like they were overruled by younger guys and got upset. As i told , it was a problem about politics and balances between groups inside the Curva. We started as a group of friends inside Vecchia Guardia and slowly grew up in number (when the maltese came for some games, and we were all there, we counted more than 20-25 persons) and it hurted some chieftains of VG.
We couldn't ask for anyone's help, because it would have been simply out of place, these things aren't dealt with gentlemen's agreements, at best you can barely speak about your reasons, if your lucky; many times you get punched first then you complain, if you dare to. The more you complain the more you get punched, you must know how these things go. So shutting up sometimes is the best thing to do.

Btw i think Curva is a fascinating place overall, so i suggest everyone to experience it , but it has its rules, and if you go there you must accept them.
Being me a bit hotheaded i avoided troubles in advance.

A little example about Juve-Milan: i was there with Franco6 and other maltese guys of Milna Club Malta and there was this guy who started harassing us and the people nearby jumping on the lower rows several times. it was clearly intended as a tentative to be cool/hardcore in front of his friends- The maltese guys came from malta and spent a good amount of moneys to watch the match, so i couldn't stand their moment was spoilt by a prick. Being there quiet persons i thought it was on me to stop this guy breaking the balls, so i took him from his jacket and shouted like a fool in front of his face. This guy stopped immediately.Afterwards he came quietly and we chatted a bit, i wasn't angry.As you can see the rule down there is the rule of the jungle. Even though most of the times the Curva is a safe place and enjoyable one.

jim, the point is :

if you have stadia like san nicola-bari (80.000 seats) or delle alpi (70.000) even tough you have 50.000 spectators they look half empty.

san siro looks half empty with 60.000 spectators, but this amount of people would fill the most part of average english stadia 2 times!

you have smaller stadia, therefore they look always filled. Plus, you have better facilities and a better culture for the live events, but when we talk about the attendancies we must distinguish that italian stadia are hardly fillable with an average number of seats almost the double than the english stadia

that's a fair point gio, indeed apart from Man Utd's ground which is now 70,000 odd, most grounds in England are between 30,000 - 45,000 (give or take a few thousand each way). But do you not think that the crowds have been declining over the years ? Not that it's just Italy, i mean if you look at Barca or Real's grounds there not always completely full and of course hold alot more than British clubs. I just wonder what the reason is behind this gradual decline in numbers, either that or they are all camera shy and no one wants to sit on the side the cameras point at
