Probably didn't come across clear enough but basically after receiving 3 game ban I received a letter from fletcher stating if I signed a form stating I would be on best behaviour I would get the season ticket back but if I was a naughty boy ever again I would receive a life ban.

Yes mate I was just being a bit sarcy as it did read that you wouldn`t get your card back whilst you were alive.Mind you the way the Ticket Office are fucking about anything could happen.
 
didsburyblu - do you really think that this is somehow City's fault?

You are responsible for your physical card and for the person who is using it.
If you use the new ticket exchange, your ticket, if sold, means your card is made null and void for entry to the game in question and your legal responsibility for the seat no longer applies.

Due to the stupidity of the idiot that ended up having your card, you have a three game ban that could be extended to life if you, or someone using your card, commits any other offence. Your friend who gave the card away has a huge responsibility for this and if he really was you friend he would offer to write to the club and take the blame with the 'Life ban' threat transferred to him (if he too has a card). That said the club would probably be in their rights to put a life ban threat onto both of you - so that might not be a good idea.

If you feel strongly about the current situation or want to take it forward then it will cost money as you need to contact a solicitor who does conveyancing and should thus know about contract law and can go through your options. That said, unless the idiot you got you the ban comes clean I doubt you have a leg to stand on. Oh and for goodness sake be civil and humble in all dealings with City over this. If you get someones back up at City it could end badly for you in the long term.

Where in any of my posts have I said this was Citys fault?
And as I have already pointed out I probably would have used ticket exchange except they didn't announce it was up and running until a couple of days before the game and the day before I flew out of the country.
Anyway as previously stated I've emailed the club given my side of things in a civil manner and provided proof I was out of the country. My point being If they accept that it wasn't me who caused the offence how can they penalise me as I couldn't possibly have known what would ensue. The same as anyone else who might give their card to a mate who they trust. Same mate goes for a few beers before game and gets evicted . Is that the seasoncard holders fault?
All I'm saying is this guilt by association thing is a nonsense but I'm just going to await their reply before deciding how to proceed
 
Apologies I just got that from the tone of some of your earlier posts.
Your in a shit situation and I hope you get somewhere. You're friend and his idiot acquaintance could help you out - I hope they do - but be careful if they are willing. The club may tar you all with the same brush. Be courteous and civil and see how things go and if you're not happy with the outcome take legal advice. It may cost you money but it may help resolve the situation in your favour.

Wouldn't go as far as taking legal advice just hope city use common sense in this situation.
I can understand a ban sticking if they are unsure whether the person who commited the offence was you or the friend who you say had your ticket.
But unless city are suggesting that after 14 years of unblemished record both home and away I suddenly decided I was going to take a pint in to the ground in Order to get myself evicted and then spent £1000 on flights, hotels and carhire to cover my tracks then I would hope common sense would prevail......
I know it's not on the same scale but if your mate knocked on the door asked to borrow your golf clubs then proceeded to batter someone to death with them would you expect to be charged for their crime because they were your golf clubs??
Anyway time will tell if common sense prevails or not
 
city could't care less if it was someone who has been going 50plus years and had accidentally made a mistake..

shocked but not sure why anymore, plenty taking the clubs side over this (would have been alot different 8plus years ago)

city have had the money for the seat so good luck getting anything back...

in the clubs eyes you are guilty until proved innocent.

To be fair you are correct

The information I got when I was banned was Fletcher gave my ticket to friends and he did this on regular basis.
