    Would it not be possible to do like you did for Cardiff and put an area of the Board to one side to allow people tobuy / sell tickets ? From memory it worked before. ST holders could be encouraged to take up their allocation and have a legitimate outlet to (fairly) trade them.</p>

    You could have a sticky with a link to the area, then the main BBS forum could be kept for discussions about footie, immigration and the teaching profession etc....</p>

    Excellent idea

    I'm after getting some tickets for mates and I'd happily pay a little bonus to anyone who'd help.

    I think the "pay a little bonus" is what is trying to be stopped!

    I'd happily take 5 off your hands - need to get 5 together you see.

    My mates are not into footy at all, cricket, rugby and American Footy yes, but the whole crap that Premiership footy has become with huge wages, prima donna players and cheating has turned them off football, BUT, the way Barnsley have played and the story of them beating the big boys has captivated them, just wanted to show them a bit of BFC and how great it is to be part of a BFC crowd singing and chanting.

    I guess that includes Centenary Soc entitlement. Did you use these for Chelsea game at all. Wondered if they let you get CS tickets when you got ST tickets. Heard that's what they did (well for some people!)

    I got five Chelsea tickets with 3 STs and never used my centenary (which is in my wifes name who isnt a ST holder anyway) so no rules broken.

    Wasn't incinerating! I've said before that I don't blame anyone for getting as many tickets as they can and for whoever they want. It's up to the club to organise it. The "rules" are somewhat elastic anyway. Depends what day it is and who you are.

    Doesn't this show the stupidity of the clubs decision?

    When we have 30,000 tickets and fans who can prove they are fans with stubs from previous matches etc are all worried about not getting a seat because people are taking friends.

    i agree that there should be more categories for fans with stubs

    instead of 1 and then general sale.
