acquiescefc Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 You’re not allowed to transfer tickets as per the club/league not facebook or any other means. I would say under the circumstances maybe email the club to get their blessing on it as they could just take action irrespective of the good nature. They probably won’t reply though so crack on.

If so why do the club offer the opportunity to get paper tickets instead of using a season ticket card like Matti has done? If I can’t make a game, can someone else use my Season Ticket? No, Season Tickets are non-transferable and must be used by the supporter named on the Season Card. https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2017/february/201718-season-ticket-faqs/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's exchanged his season ticket cards for a paper ticket. By doing so the club know he doesn't intend to use them and that someone else will. It happens quite often. The club even allow you to upgrade a child or concession st to an adult for certain matches if you pay the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evert79 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Does anyone have the oppurtunity to get me a ticket for the United game? Free pints before the game if you manage to get me one. HirstWhoScoredIt got me 2 and Andy got me one. Love this forum! But now I still need one ticket as we're with four. If you need more info about us, please read the United tickets topic.

You've got too much time on your hands. I don't disagree that what Matti's doing might contravene a few rules and regulations. Whilst I admire his attempt at raising some money for charity, I think he should have left the idea well alone and just informed the club they could sell his seats as he wouldn't be in attendance. Likewise people helping randomers from other countries wanting to attend - let fans who have acquired the requisite TPP attend instead of letting day-trippers jump the queue.

I take long coffee breaks I admire Matti for what hes doing - trying to raise a few £'s for the Kids Hospital is never a bad thing. I just didnt want him to trip himself up while he was doing so.

Yeah those who book flights 3 months ahead don’t deserve to go even if they have manage to beg a ticket off someone who may not be able to go anyway and their ticket would be wasted.

But it isn't my business who does what with their unused tickets, but they can be resold by the club (I think) as I've done it with my nephew's ST seat a couple of times before. As for booking flights; I've got an away ST but never book trains etc until Sky games are confirmed. Maybe booking a flight before you've acquired a ticket is a bit of a risk, but that's up to you.

I just don’t think pointing at us ‘foreigners’ is very nice. Many supporters clubs/groups see this as the must go to game. Its the only one guaranteed to sell regardless of form and its every man/woman/gayer for themself in my opinion. No other home game will be as over subscribed as this so its a one off. I apppreciate you also travel but flights, and usually hotels, as it wasn’t guaranteed to be Saturday or Sunday, are very expensive if you wait for a ticket. I cant go this year anyway but I helped a couple of the Irish lads out through a Good Samaritan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as a 'foreign' supporter you could purchase a club membership - meaning you'd be guaranteed a ticket while putting some funds into the club?

Yep and we’ve had one every year but I don’t think £50 is a fair price for the benefits, not the i begrudge the stupid amounts ive spent on this club.....and don’t mention the £10 off games that never materialized after Villa. We’ve been asking for 10 game season tickets that would be much better value but they also never came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
