Glad to hear it. I don't go on twitter so i have no idea how it works on there but i would imagine it is similar to here. I think you should have some system for making sure tickets only go to genuine city fans, just to cover yourself and not give anybody any reason to shut you down again. Good luck.prestwichblue92 said:In a dramatic twist of events, I can say with confidence:
@MCFCTicketX is making a return. It will change to a different username but all will be the same.
So, with great pleasure: F U Viagogo. And sorry City but we'll only get stronger from this.

However, with regards to fans not making their money back it at least gives some of those fans who couldn't shift tickets on before this season a chance to get something back compared to past seasons when they wouldn't get anything. That obviously doesn't apply to all fans - many of us can find someone to take a ticket off our hands but judging by the amount of empty seats at some sold out games last season, that isn't the case for everyone.
As someone has already stated, the club's agreement with viagogo means that in all probability they have to make a small number of tickets available to them to sell on, regardless of whether it's a sold out game or not. We're not the only club that uses a ticket agency to sell tickets on. What appears to have got so many people's backs up is that these tickets appeared on viagogo after the club announced that the match was a sell out and I can understand the frustration with that.
However, I think what is more unpalatable is the mcfcticketX Twitter account being pulled as I don't see how that is any different to City fans offering their tickets to other fans on this or any other forum.

City v Swansea is SOLD OUT!
Don’t panic you can still buy tickets on viagogo, the official ticket marketplace of Manchester City.
Buy tickets here: <a class="postlink" href="http://manc.it/WJ20uU" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://manc.it/WJ20uU</a>
Copy and pasted from Facebook, I see the club are still pushing the viagogo bullshit, wonder if these are supporter tickets or ones released by the club...
