Never to the dark side Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I know things can change in a short space of time due to unforseen circumstanes so if anyone might want to buy or sell any ticketsmay I suggest making a bee-line for outside the city shopI don't like seeing tickets going unused or maybe miss the match when ticketsare available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipps Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 But touting is ok?People will not be allowed outside the club shop to buy or sell tickets, the same as they SHOULD not be allowed to BUY or SELL on the street.Or should we invite counterfeit ticketing??

Never to the dark side Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 We all can't live organised lives,life ain't like that.The only reason I put it on the open forum some one might have too many tickets theymight have bought for mate/sOn the other hand some might have been attending another function/event/work? on saturdaywhich might have been cancelledAs I said, if you have spare tickets or need them make a bee-line for outside the City shopTouting was never in my thoughtsIf I can say when we went to Northampton, when Thorpy scored the hat trick I dashed from work at midday heading for northampton(without tickets)got to northampton hoping against hope we could BUY tickets from the ticket shopAlas no luckwe were thank full that a City fan flogged us TWO tickets at 2:55pm in the City end at face value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Cloud Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 I still have a under21/disabled ticket for the dolman - need to be quick if you want it though as about to go on the juice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 I think we have all been at the away end of a ground and had city fans trying to flogtickets,and also trying to buy them.It easier when its away and its only one entranceI have seen city fans trying to get rid of tickets with out success when we have been at homeIts just some one might be in another area of the ground trying to buy ticketsIts just a meeting point for those might (or might not) have tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't class you among those Tipps so I was surpsrised by your response to what was intended to be a helpful suggestion from NTTDS. I'll let it go as being badly worded then as I do take your point.

Nibor Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 It's not touting if you ask the face value for the ticket. I don't see any problem with people selling tickets they no longer need if they're not making a profit doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
