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?

    You definitely can.

    However, wearing any clothing associated with your team is a huge no.

    Depending on your characteristics will depend on your risk of being punched or beaten up if found out. What I mean by this is a football hooligan is less likely to take umbrage if you’re a child, a pensioner, a woman or have a broken arm for example. You’re still at risk but they’d sooner punch a 25 year old guy than an elderly lady.

    Finally, you don’t have to go crazy when the home team scores but you probably have to stand up and clap. Likewise you have to feign annoyance or indifference if the away team scores.

    Yes, I did it against Man City last year (welp). I got caught as an Arsenal fan but everyone was cool about it :). Just dont celebrate too much when Arsenal score and keep your emotions in check.

    Also helped that I came from the states and people seemed surprised that someone would make the journey to attend the game.

    I went to the Arsenal Palace season opener last season and would just squeeze fuck out my gf’s leg when we scored 😅

    People on here will say premier league stadiums are simultaneously filled with tourists and violent aggressive home fans. It can’t be both in my head

    I’m sure we are all capable of sitting through a game in any premier league stadium with any team.

    I took my dad to watch a Norwich Brentford game when Norwich spanked us he is a Norwich fan but is too innocent to know if it’s bad when he cheered a goal he was never rude or loud with it but I could see some people looking though most were laughing as they could see I had a Brentford top on and he meant well haha
