SAFC - Fan Ban & Ticket Cancellations

While we will never find out what has fully gone here I assume the club wouldn't have done this without pretty strong evidence

It’s an open and shut case mate.

I feel for all the fans losing tickets though, I do hope the club aren’t too harsh on all of them, maybe ban till end of the season, but they probably didn’t think they were doing much wrong.

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

How is everyone guilty? That’s just not the case.

Yes the ones passed on are but not the ones bought by another. That’s everyone in every branch who’s then guilty and anyone who buys their mates.
 
Seems a strange one this.
Fair play if the club have caught 65 people with someone else's number when using a ticket at away games but if they've cancelled everyones on a guilt by association basis that shocking.
I don't use a branch for my tickets, always just get them myself, but I have used a branch bus a few times and there's lads on those who do every single game. Terrible if they've lost their mags ticket because someone else has fucked up.

I'm not saying they are, or that I believe they are, but the club will think everyone associated with him is guilty regardless of what they may say - especially if said individual as also thrown them under the bus to try and save his own skin
 
The club should have checked all the tickets but nah they just banned them all. Plenty genuine fans used him. It’s shit for the club to ban them all due to one bloke would have been plenty ways around it.

Also he had a falling out with some at the club didn’t he.

They haven’t caught 65 they have banned a bloke who bought the 65 and cancelled them.
 
Club should check the history of the guy who got caught and the other 65 people and take all the points off them. people who sell them will be hit hard.

Have they actually banned him from all games? Harsh if true
 
None of this was a problem when we were shit because we weren't in the premier league. These are premier league rules aren’t they?

He 100% hasn’t. Quite the opposite.

Look, we are all glad the club are clamping down on incorrect people having tickets. I just think they’ve gone about this the wrong way in regards to the innocent bystanders. By all means punish the perpetrator(s) but I think they could have dealt with this slightly better

Why are you targeting, up to, 65 people? Many of which go to every single game and have done for years
