SAFC - Fan Ban & Ticket Cancellations

How is it wrongdoing for them to get their ticket bought by a branch and then go to said game? They do it so they can sit together. Unless you are telling me every single supporter buys their own ticket, individually, and sits by themselves every away game?

Thought it wasnt an official branch though?

No of course they dont, but I find it hard to believe that all 65 have to go to every game and have to sit together. Something just doesnt add up at all

Out of curiosity, why havent the people in the group bought the tickets themselves? They are guilty by association, but also in breach of the t&c's if they were aware of his wrong doings, as shit as that might be

They, like many others, got others to book ticket so could sit together, couldnt login at 12 and didnt have money to buy. How many others get friends to buy their tickets for matches?

I guess that some tickets were passed round but wasnt to help fill a bus but was to help people go. However, a large chunk were used by people who go everywhere, on their own card and are now stopped from attending. That is wrong.

Not all 65 were bought in one go. 3 phases. You do realise every branch has 40 tickets ring fenced in phase 1 don’t you? For this same reason. Are they guilty too?

But how was that individual able to buy that many? In order to have 40 tickets ringfenced then he must’ve been granted branch privileges by the club?

The way he went on suggested he worked alongside the Ticket Office, and if that’s the case then it is surprising that something untoward has gone on.

Correct. The ticket office gave him corporate returns in the past to sell on when they had no takers. Previous seasons obviously, not this season

Nobody said 65 did. There’s obviously wrong doing on behalf of some of those tickets but the club have cancelled all of them. This is the problem people have. I assume we all don’t have an issue with the ones that were in the wrong, people are arguing the case for the innocent bystanders that you decided were guilty just because a branch bought their tickets

That is wrong, and the club should have been able to look at that and make sure they could prove they were eligible to go, but they've clearly decided to clamp down hard and by the letter of the T&C's (Which the club will obviously use) everyone is probably guilty because of one man
