Going to a game in couple weeks, and I’m an away fan but there was no tickets left so I’ve bought home tickets. Is this allowed?? Could I get kicked out?

Ok you have to do the obvious go there just for the game try make it a neutral day and relax and enjoy a football game with team you know. That way you won’t get overly involved and start cheering
So basically think of bad and sad things in the world and think how coming together for football is great for us all.
You can, I’ve done it as a Bournemouth fan in the Saints home end… but I didn’t celebrate when we scored (more than once) and I feigned clapping when Saints scored, it’s fine because you get to watch the game but it’s not at all as fun!
If you must take a space away from a supporter, at least keep quiet about your allegiances.
of course. Just be smart, no team colors and keep your mouth shut
If you display your allegiance to the away side whilst being in the home end, expect to get ejected and take a few smacks on the way out if you’re being especially obnoxious. If you sit down, shut up and don’t raise any attention you’ll be able to watch the game just fine.
Hopefully you’ve bought tickets for a non-hooligan area of the stand
As a Chelsea fan who has lived up north; I’ve sat in and amongst the City/United fans on multiple occasions. It’s just a shit experience. lol.
Was in the upper Holte end at home to utd in the fa cup in 2004. 3 utd fans caught out and kicked out. While being lead down into the concourse by stewards one of them took an almighty punch to the face
Went to 2009 Carling cup final. Could only get tickets for the man utd end through a mate. As a villa fan it was very hard not to cheer when they went 1 up.
Even worse was the random beside me hugging me twice when man utd went on to win.
Meh. Shouldn’t be an issue for most but I wouldn’t wear an away kit. Just sit and enjoy the match and have a dampened celebration of your team scores.
The terms and conditions state that home ends are for home fans only, so you will get thrown out if discovered. Good luck.
Do what you want anyone starts shit record it and press charges it’s not the 80s anymore. People trying to fight you in the stands are morons. Some shit talk is all well and good but once they start getting physical they can get fucked and lose the privilege of going to games
What would be the best clubs to do this for? Surely most of the Premier League clubs are selling tickets to their own paid members way before the games kick-off.
I have read here on Reddit about people coming over from Ireland for a weekend in Liverpool having already bought LFC tickets for a game on a Saturday evening. They managed to buy City tickets for the midday game on the off chance they were available on the day and just sat in the home stands as neutrals.
I can’t imagine many PL clubs where you can just log-on as a non-member (or sign up on the day maybe), buy tickets and attend the game on the same day.
City and West Ham would be my guesses for where you might get PL tickets on general sale.
Keep your mouth shut and don’t wear colours. You’ll need to act like a home fan. Not worth the aggro unless it’s a big game you just can’t miss IMO.
I’d take the advice being dished out on this post, although just for fun, I must mention that I faced nothing of the sort when I tried something similar. I was at the Etihad a few years ago, rooting for Real Madrid against Manchester City in the Champions League, while being seated amidst the home fans, and everyone around was happy to let me cheer for Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale and Benzema without any issues. It was a fantastic experience, all thanks to the great Manchester City fans. 😊
