Outrageous or ……. 22:13 - May 2 with 6116 viewsMetal_Hacker

Someone just asked me for £100 for a Fleetwood ticket

Not sure how I should feel about that really

If the demand is there then fair enough for asking for that amount but for me , I’d rather do a fellow supporter a favour

Each to their own

Assuming this is an extension of you earlier having thought you'd got a ticket sorted, that's definitely not on.

I was a little more pleasant in my declining of the offer but was raging inside

Landlady in the Walton Half Moon said her husband or one of his friends sold a ticket for the Exeter game for £250. Apparently he's a West Ham fan though.

Can't say I approve (of his team or his decision) but as you say, each to their own

Think the issue with anyone trying to get tickets from anyone else is that they have to be collected in person at Fleetwood and if they have even rudimentary checks in place to see if the purchaser matches who is collecting the ticket then it's going to be a problem.

Edit - But yes, £100 is a joke and the fan in question should be ashamed.

I had a spare for ncfc away in playoffs. Bloke offered me £100, told him no way and £40 (face value) was fine…
Turned up with £100, wouldn’t take no for an answer.
So the additional £60 went in the kitty that day (and I wasn’t even drinking) so didn’t feel like I’d done any wrong

They won'd do checks. They didn't at other 'letter' games. It's a trust issue. Personally, I dont have any issue with it. I wont be selling my ticket but understand why some people may not turn down a. good offer with everything costing what it does these days.

As a large group we ended up with 2 spare tickets for France v Ireland in Lyon at Euro 2016. Didn't know it was going to be that game when we got them as it was a knock out match. The night before the game the sort of money we were being offered was ridiculous, 1,000 euro each. Never sat right to profit from it, and given it was going to be split between 10 of us anyway it wasn't ever a consideration.

Ended up chatting to some Irish lads in town that night, had such a good night with them and they didn't have tickets, they didn't know we had 2 spares. My mate just leaned over with them fanned in his hand at one point and goes 'come with us tomorrow'. They couldn't believe it.

Turned out one of them had a cousin running a an Irish pub in the city, was invite only to the after party after the game the following night. He got us all on the list, had an unbelievable night. I was halfway up a lamppost at one point getting a Mick McCarthy chant going.

Well all the "new" tickets available this morning have gone - website couldn't handle it I don't think

Couldn't have been many more available either obviously

Seems I'll go in the neutral end then

Sorry to hear you didn't get one. I would keep your eyes peeled on here and Twitter, it's quite possible that someone bails late in the day given the distance etc. Especially as you're only hunting for 1. I'm not going myself as it's my kids birthday but I'll hit you up if I hear any going.

At least you'll be there though.

I know a few considering not going, I was doing the same after the last week and all the dosh spent and was am due to be away that weekend in our caravan with family (for my birthday!)

So then decided to just go up and down on day, but wasn't sure as a long old poke from Belton to Blackpool - but fortunately a mate who I thought was offshore working up that way is back near the caravan park so we are heading up together.

But when I was a bit edgy had 5 or 6 people ask for tickets so think they are still hot property and getting one will be tough

Greatly appreciated - I'm going but would rather sell those on and go in the away
