Man Utd fans selling Munich scarves on ebay

[Dog-amoto]

And they thought that the City fans would show a lack of class - people are selling their 50th anniversary commemorative scarves that were left on their seats before yesterday's game.

A lot are being sabotaged though - some have bids up to £10 million! lol

[The Bard]

can't see the problem personally. it's only football.

 

Fixed for accuracy.

[Blackfox]

What a bunch of ***** - although I doubt severely it'll be the true fans. More like the daytripping ***** who are willing to pay the stupid amounts to go to the games..

[Brian Mcoy]

Mcoy sees no deal with it, Mcoy knows scarfs aren't going to bring the dead back to life.

[Guest Stefkov]

I could see this happening. If they sold the shirts at the stadium as a one off there'd be people selling them on ebay.

Nothing you can do to stop them though.

[Roostophe]

I'm not surprised, actually. They lost the match... They don't want a memento of a match they lost, they're Manchester United ffs.

What the hell is your problem?

 

Do you not like the idea of people watching something and enjoying it? I'm no football fan, but I can't see what the major issue is...

 

On topic, it strikes me as a little insensitive...

He's saying it really doesn't matter seeing as it's football, something he doesn't really care for. I don't personally see the problem, Did something bad happen in Munich or something?

A plane carrying a load of Man U players crashed at the airport while taking off or landing (I forget).

[Twozzok]

Wasn't that like back in the 60's or something though?

[The Bard]

Oh right, didn't know that. My bad.

[Guest Stefkov]

1958 it happened. I think it was on take off, it got 600 feet or something came crashing down. It was the 50th Anniversary mid week. Man United players and a Man City player died along with reporters and such. The scarves were given out to the people free just to remember the occasion.

It angers me really.

Through one perspective it is seen very morally wrong because people are potentially making money after what happened in Munich.

 

However the other perspective is that some football fans may not look after the scarf very much and so there will be buyers who genuinely want to have one to mark their respect by owning and looking after one of the scarves.

Ah right, I thought they were just scarves given at a game that just happened to be in Munich. Not ones specifically to commemorate an occasion, which selling is slightly douchebaggish

[Roostophe]

I think the scarves were free. Given out to the fans as they entered the stadium.

[AshMat]

....

so what?

[Guest Stefkov]

It's morally wrong.

But who cares about that anymore. It's all about the money so there's nothing you can do.

[DCK]

It's not morally wrong, it's a fucking scarf.

 

I love football, but really, some of you care way too much for your own health.

[Mikey]

They should have waited for years from now until the scarfs were rare. They're have made fuck loads more then.

[Sheikah]

I think it's wrong, monopolising on something intended for remembrance.

[Ramar]

Tourists. Old Trafford is full of them.

[gmac]

supposedly ebay are taking the postings down now when they find them

[Portlett]

Tourists. Old Trafford is full of them.
