    Hopefully our club spend the time to see who got the ticket and deal with them. They say they aren't after a financial gain and so why isn't it at buy now price of 24 quid? So they can make financial gain.

    The club dont know who got the tickets. There were just a pile of tickets. I dont think they recorded the ticket and the code together.

    problem is it doesnt stop the seller from selling it

    they know who has made bids and people will contact them directly

    Could have returned it to the club

    And they'd have given it to someone on the "standby" list. As DB3K says, this is for financial gain whatever it says.

    TBH I don't see the problem, it offers a real fan to get to the game. I wouldn't have got my ticket if someone didn't sell it to me, he couldn't get time off work.

    it doesnt offer a real fan the chance

    it offers the richest people the chance, that could be a liverpool fan or a man utd fan with more money than sense

    Theres a suggestion for the supporters trust right there

    In sell out games the club should buy back tickets of people who can't make it to the game and then resell the tickets for additional profit.

    So what if he did this for financial gain at least now someone who desperately wants a ticket can get one

    The club already do that

    Took a spare QPR ticket back recently and got a full refund. No additional profit but at least the ticket would have been made available again through the proper channels and would presumably have gone to someone on the waiting list, such as one of those turned away with "come back tomorrow" vouchers.

    Never mind "desperately wants"

    What about "desperately deserves", i.e. a ST holder who queued for 6 hours and then got turned away?

    I didn't realise that they did that, maybe it should be more prominently advertised, especially with things like the liverpool game.

    For us with bad memories, how many times have we sold out the home stands at oakwell? I'm just wondering whether a similar idea could be used in these matches with the voucher from season tickets being bought back by the club for say £10 and then the seat sold on again for full price. Other clubs where they sell out every week do this I think.
