Maybe they're worried about empty seats at Wembley? Would rather someone re-sell than just not show up if they can't make it?Can somebody explain the logic in giving a bonus loyalty point to any ST holder who puts their ticket up for sale on the Ticket Exchange? Doesn't seem very loyal to me?

Yeah, but you've seen the match?Good point. It is a bit odd. If you sell your ticket you get the LP for free (assuming it goes), if you attend it has cost you £35 or 1/19th of your ST.
Yeah, but you've seen the match?
Given the period of "transition" of moving to Wembley, I think it's a nice gesture of the club to "reward" fans who have decided to purchase/renew their ST and deal with being buggered about.
But maybe that's just me.
I'd have thought the money would be incentive enough.Maybe they're worried about empty seats at Wembley? Would rather someone re-sell than just not show up if they can't make it?
I did I'm just not sure how it works. I live overseas and the only way I was able to go last year was because of StubHub.Patience. The club will announce ticket exchange plans in due course...or did you not read the linked statement?

But will you actually get a ticket to tout?Guess if you're a seller you'd be pissed but as a buyer it's much fairer. I've got my season ticket today and probably won't attend every single match (missing the first two games as I'm abroad) so instead of forcing to sell at face value they should maybe have capped the max price per category. It just forces more people to tout the tickets themselves.

I assumed we'd be issued with some sort of access card, which we'd use throughout the season as per what happened at WHL?
Also, if you're only buying a ST to sell them, you've got a ST for the wrong reasons tbh.
I would pay extra to sit in the "PL" area rather than elsewhere - are they allowed to sell if it is not a sell out?Maybe I'm wide of the mark here, but surely feck all tickets will be sold on this new platform while we are at Wembley.
We are not going to sell out apart from maybe the Chavs, Woolwich and possibly Man U - so tickets will be freely available directly from Spurs without the £7.50 fee added to the face value (if I'm reading the Spurs website correctly). So unless you want to be in a specific block that just happens to be sold out, then there's probably no need to buy one via this method.

Were we not expecting 50K for most prior to the extension - I still think a lot of games will have no upper tier (and this is as planned), it is a shame regarding cheaper tickets but even with cheaper tickets I think we would have huge gaps - If ST were 30% cheaper then they may chose to miss 30% of the games rather than the hassel of getting there and out and "no cost".Looks like it.
Still going to be loads of empty seats at Wembley all of next season (I'm guessing probably up to 30k for many games)....if only Spurs had shown a bit of goodwill and knocked down the ticket prices like they did for the Champs League last season.
I think if we start the season as we finish last one, the fans will keep flocking in (Wembley or not and regardless of prices).
However, if we don't start off with a bang or start to flag, then yes crowd numbers will drop.
Means you are making the club extra £s. That's the definition of loyalty to the club surely. You are literally paying the players wages.Can somebody explain the logic in giving a bonus loyalty point to any ST holder who puts their ticket up for sale on the Ticket Exchange?

They are selling season tickets in the upper tier. So not sure what that means can't just shut an area with ST holders sitting in it.Were we not expecting 50K for most prior to the extension - I still think a lot of games will have no upper tier (and this is as planned), it is a shame regarding cheaper tickets but even with cheaper tickets I think we would have huge gaps - If ST were 30% cheaper then they may chose to miss 30% of the games rather than the hassel of getting there and out and "no cost".
