Third party ticket sites and City (dodgy site ticket claims - p32)

[Eds]

Just had this come up on my social media.

They have community shield tickets available from £86 already. @Alex - City Matters how does this happen. Can the City Matters group receive a definitive answer from the club about which ticket sites they work with and what percentage of tickets (especially away games) are given to these sites.

My mum had to sell her ticket for the last game of the season and got £19 back as she's a pensioner . The lad who was sat next to me and my dad said he paid £200 for the ticket from a site.

That’s keeping the prices down for the South Stand Level 3 Blues etc.

Obviously purchased by a season card/ membership holder and then resold. The club needs to be informed.

Not sure if you’re being sarcastic or not.

But if not. Far from obvious.

Wouldn't surprise me if a city themselves put it on the websites. They give my mum 19 pound back for her season card. Sell it too a website for a profit who in turn sell it for another profit

Can see us going down the ballot road one day, with the amount of fans kicking off about not getting away tickets through the club and having to use 3rd party sites.

If the club actually sold tickets through the loyalty points scheme rather than via third party sites…
