[Albion] £250 per ticket?

[dazzer6666]

Aw go away. Do you really think that there aren’t hundreds of our JCL, stockbroker/Trader/Banker STH who have only got seats for when we play one of the big teams...the “boring” games they give to their mates or their kids mates. I personally know two in the East Lower (who have 8 STs between them) who’ve sold their seats, for the City tie, for a nice few quid while they watch the game over cold drinks in Ditchling and Hayward’s Heath respectively.

Don’t be naive. There’s a lot of twats like them about.

There are, many clubs have them. I used to know quite a few at a previous firm I worked - and one group in particular - that had STs at both Spurs and Chelsea so they could attend ‘home’ games most weekends. We’ve probably got a higher proportion than a lot of other PL clubs due to recent promotion and our catchment area being full of ‘big club’ fans.

Hmm. I thought so, but now you’ve got me uncertain.

I’m in W1H, don’t think it is........

Just reiterates that all season ticket holders aren't true Albion, but we all knew that anyhow.

Everyone’s got their price.

I’m not selling my ticket, but if a desperate city fan dangled £500 in front of me in return for one match I’d be tempted.

I imagine there’s going to be quite a few (very long) letters dropping on certain door mats next week.

So, is the potential buyer going to have a problem with these tickets? Whaddya reckon?

Is it actually illegal?

Just asking for a friend

 

[WATFORD zero]

Get on with it Paul.

Get them cancelled and back on the ticket exchange pronto if you want that record crowd

Is row P 1901 ?

Nearly but not quite. W2 - be them. The row P signifies where the prawns land after falling from a 1901 sandwich directly above. If you’re really lucky you might end up with a piece of pulled pork bap, but that would be W3 - where the oiks of the West Upper reside.

FFS Yes it's illegal and hopefully your " friend " will have his season ticket cancelled !

 

[Is it PotG?]

Looks like someone in Manchester bought the 4, now selling the fourth.

 

[Marshy]

Im surprised its only a grand to be honest

Hopefully someone will make a copy of the pic on this thread and scan the barcode on entry to the ground before the City fan attempts to gain entry to the ground and the City fan will be refused entry because a ticket cannot be scanned twice to gain entry.

Fairly sure those tickets will be invalid by now and someone has wasted a grand.

It’s going to be fun on Sunday with 6-7000 Mancs in town

should be ok , they will be in good spirits .

Never met a bad City fan so hopefully all be up for a bit of a laugh

I think that if that is the case (and I know I'm probably going to get slated for this), then the person
concerned needs to be notified that the tickets have been cancelled and the person who offered the tickets
equally informed of their actions and consequences.

More importantly will the Mancs who bought them actually get to sit in them

My “friend” is a little worried, they might come around and beat him up if the Barber police deny entry, as he won’t be offering a refund

I met a condescending **** at the hotel I stayed at after the Semi Final who told me that the cup was a sideshow, it was all about the league. Another reason why I hope we stop them picking up the Premier League title.

I did tell him that it was just a sideshow for us as well, it was all about STAYING in the league for us

Did your "friend' list them publicly on a reseller site? Or just face to face? Only way they'll know certain seats got resold is if the information was easily available on the internet (such as a photo of the tickets on offer!). If the club know tickets were sold on they'll be cancelled and the buyers denied entry.

Says on the back of the ticket.

I haven’t really got this friend, I am just interested in the likely outcome, which I feel will be bad for the seller and the purchaser thanks to the snitches on NSC

Now where’s my tin hat gone?

Fair enough - ta. I'm just as irritated by this sort of thing as anyone - but would rather the 'purchaser' finds out
sooner rather than at the turnstiles.
