Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Just seen this kicking off on Twitter as Jimmy alluded to..
Seems they're monitoring a lot of accounts and certainly rustling a few feathers. If this was to be serious, I think some of those accounts have a lot of followers who know a lot of people; if Spurs are actively banning face-value transactions between fans while encouraging overpriced touting then there's going to be a nationwide fucking shitstorm and we are gonna have some terrible, terrible PR about.

Where is Enic HQ? Protest outside there. Make Levy look like he can't keep his house in order in front of his exec chums.
Take his family hostage.
Good. For the sake of all football fans.
SnubHub update.
The legalised ticket touts have reduced their asking prices for the cheapest ones:
Now - £149.50 Adult or £166.50 Junior.
Most expensive, a still a snip at - £575.00 each x 6.
Its probably cheaper to hire an executive box at WHL for the day, including a champagne reception, prawn sandwiches and your own servant.

yeah thee's a cut off time mate, my Dad tried to get me one for the Palace game as he'd used my membership for his mate. He was about to to get one on the cheap and when the page refreshed they'd all disappeared so he emailed them and they replied saying it's something like 5 hours before KO.
Done!
As far as im aware only two games havent gone to general sale in the last two years.Members have had the opportunity to buy tickets.
under the ticket exchange, St holder lost out.The club failed to find a fair way to sell them.
The season we appointed Jol, there was no St waiting list, where were these fans clamerbering for ticket then.Was it because, we were shit.I bought 3 kids st on the opening day of the season.

Unlimited food and soft drinks, cannot be true. The ticket price seems quite reasonable if your name's Donald Trump.

Saw the price on there but not the unlimited food and drinks bit. Good effort that man, just shows how you can take the piss even more on that shithouse of a site.
Jesus what a wretched response... so basically they're saying that they don't believe that Stubhub is ticket touting.
"A club spokesman" said:
Someone needs to tell the club that anything above face plus costs is touting.
Even dumber cunts than the cunts that buy through stub hub
I've been looking at this
http://www.haringeyindependent.co.u...erate__strong__stance_against_ticket_touting/
One thing that strikes me as odd is how much they pride themselves on the fact that only season ticket holders with tickets for games that are sold out can sell on Stubhub. That's not something to be proud of That's fucking moronic. That's like starting a game of monopoly where the money is split 50 50 But one person gets all the property.
The only person that will win is season ticket holders. They've been given a golden ticket and an auction house and told to go wild.
Perhaps if when they want to sell their Ticket to some game that isn't sold out, and no one is willing to pay more than half the price for a ticket it would balance things out.
However... Then the people with the tickets are just going to charge more for the sold out games. Which is probably why they implemented that rule in the first place.
The whole thing is a complete joke.

I could not agree with you more.
Highest price on shit hub at the minute is £1058 for the arse game!
This ticket has a face value of £48..............

i think theres definitely a market for something like Stubhub, however.. stub hub is a business. They're going to want to make money and the only way it will happen is if a buyer or seller loses out. If you could just return a ticket and get a refund, it would be so much simpler. Tickets shouldn't be a commodity. The ticket exchange was basically exactly what i described. But alas... money talks.
I did return a ticket for the man city game (dad couldn't make it health issues) and it was refunded pronto, although I'm only an e member so that probably doesn't count. Anyway just been looking at the Tottenham site and managed to get a ticket for the Cardiff game in March (not using stub hub), just goes to show you got to keep looking and they do pop up.
