I hate seeing people ask over face value for tickets that they've clearly bought just to make a profit. c**t's trick.

Hate to see our own fans ripping each other off. The club should be able to trace these tickets and ban the 'fan' from purchasing tickets in future.

They could, as the seller has not hidden the seat numbers etc. the club could trace who bought them!

I don't see the problem, he hasn't put them up for sale at the current value, people have bidded and someone knowingly put the current bid in as they are willing to pay that to see the game.

Probably more the fact that they are at £82 and the reserve has not been met? Surely that should be face value if that was the case!

SISU probably bought 5000 seats for the Coventry Spurs tie and are now selling them to fans at triple face value

It's the act of a complete arsehole. They've bought tickets to a game they had no intention of attending for the sole purpose of ripping off a real fan who doesn't want to miss the game. It's immoral. Once when I was struggling to get hold of a ticket, someone on one of the LCFC fan sites messaged me that he had a 'spare' for twice face value. I told him to fuck off and fuck himself. Eventually got a return from the ticket office for the correct price.
Never, ever, ever pay over face value. Ever.

Now you know how the club feel - except they are paying 8 times the face value to ACL.

The club could actually get a big screen at the Ricoh and charge a small amount for fans to watch a live stream-just a thought.

Can't say I agree, if we got to Wembley and I couldn't get a ticket I'd re-mortgage my house to go. As people say supply and demand, if people missed out on tickets they have the opportunity to go for what the seller thinks is the correct price. Might end up with egg on his face though, heard in the pub tonight Spurs are giving us 1000 more tickets after selling out our allocation ?

Are you sure because when I spoke to the club they said that was all we were getting as spurs had sold out too they already had to move 2000 of there own fans to give us 5000

Speaking from experience, I know there's always someone, somewhere happy to sell a genuine spare ticket for face value. I've often had spares for big games and sold them for the right price. If people stop paying ludicrous amounts for tickets these scumbags will stop buying tickets they don't want in the first place.

Not positive atall mate, and not one to start rumours. Although I was speaking to a mate last night that said there may be tickets available later this week, summat about corporate tickets set aside that will go on general sale if there not claimed ? As I say don't want to start rumours but its what I was told. I genuinely hope there is as it seems there's lots of fans without tickets who want go go

I think what people are forgetting is White Hart Lane only has 4,000 more seats than the Ricoh!

You could be right about the corp tickets as a couple of years ago I tried to get brum away tickets and was told they were sold out then tried a day later and got a couple

They'd be returns though, surely?

It's the ones that they put aside for sponsors and other company's if they don't collect them by a certain date they then go to general sale
