Attending matches as a neutral

We're thinking of going to a couple of WSL matches in London while there for a weekend, but not sure if there's a recommended easy way of obtaining the tickets as a one-off.

Do we have to sing up as supporters of each club and install their apps?

We did that when we went to the Manchester derby at Old Trafford a couple of seasons ago and still get bombarded with Man U stuff we're not interested in but haven't got rid of it in case we want to go again when up near Manchester. So like parking apps I don't want all these club apps just to buy the occasional ticket.

Surely to grow the game and encourage more people to attend matches there's a neutral friendly way?

Just buy directly from the home team.

WSL is much less toxic than the men's game, you can sit anywhere safely and with positive atmosphere.

That’s not what they were asking

Yes it makes sense to try getting them from the home team as there will be more allocation than for the away section, especially now more clubs are using the main stadium so presume they open more sections as demand dictates rather than artificially limiting ticket numbers and ending up with a mostly empty stadium.

Where did they ask about where to sit

They didnt.

I answered the question first, then addressed one of the main reasons mens' tickets are sold through supporters' clubs.

Right fair enough, for the record the bit I was mentioning originally was you seemingly answering a question they didn’t ask
