but use the forums here for tickets when i dont have enough points for certain games. How is it the black market when people are selling tickets for face value to games they cannot make it to?
The answer to your question is in your post.
It is the Black market as:
* not everyone sells tickets at face value on social networks
* people such as yourself as you have just admitted are obtaining tickets with not enough points, which leaves Blues who have enough points empty handed.
For yourself this may be innocent and you just want to attend a match, fair enough. But for someone such as myself I deal with this issue on a regular basis with supporters complaining, mud slinging and so on regarding people who are obtaining tickets to solely sell on at these pages (to keep their LP's high and many also to gain profit)
So when loyal, genuine fans are knocked back by the club by for not having enough points, but then they hear stories seeing people who openly admit to rarely ever going to games, obtaining tickets for away days,
it has often tarnished the official supporters club from which I am a member, and founder/committee member of a branch.
This isn't your fault, as it's gone on for years before facebook, but with these pages it has made it easier for people to say: you know what, i'll order XXX tickets, knowing that i can flog them on facebook, get more LP's, and on many occasions make profit.
