Then that puts you in the same bracket as the scumbags that hang around Anfield and Old trafford every Saturday touting tickets for more than face value.

Cheers.
How well put.

I can't quite believe you've even tried to make that point with such language...

Besides. I haven't offered my ticket out.
A fellow poster & I where having a joke.
For a moment I turned serious and considered the value of what could happen.
Again, if someone CAME TO ME and offered to feed my family for a sustained period of time with a silly sum i would.

Shoot me down.
I know you've got some Brigantes-based issue with me (we won't go into that, despite my bemusement) but to label someone a 'scumbag' is a bit far for even you, surely?

Selling tickets for more than face value is illegal.

You wasn't called a scumbag directly, what I said was, if you was to sell a desperate person a ticket for a substantial amount of money more than you paid, that makes you a tout, which is illegal, it puts you in the same bracket as the people that hang around football stadiums targetting people that are desperate for tickets and make a large (illegal) profit.

Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.

Get a grip mate. Did you know that using Richard Ashcrofts likeness without his expressed permission is also illegal?

The fella was clearly joking, and if someone offered me a grand for my ticket, I may just accept it as well.

Good job its not me that designed the avatar then isn't it

I know. What a 'scumbag' I am for (not actually) trying to sell my ticket.

I didn't say you did design it. But you're using it, and that's illegal. So please don't comment on the legality of other things, when you can't even get past simple copyright law!

Depends what you mean by using it??? And how exactly you would prove that that picture is actually based on Richard Ashcroft?? I know several people that have similar hair to that and wear sunglasses, it could be anyone. Wouldn't stand up in court.

Next......

Oh my days



Get a room you two!

Depends what the tickets are for but its not illegal in most cases.

That's clearly wrong!

The amount of people asking me try and get them a ticket has been unreal.

It just adds to the suspense, can't wait

Anyone getting a bit desperado to get in then go see the chief steward at the gate pre match around 2pm (when he isnt nattering to anyone and on his own) at the wigan end with 3 crisp 20 notes, slide them into his hand whilst looking away and in you go to the terrace - Voila!!



erm... someone told me

At last a bit of sense on here, talk about a storm in a teacup.

Ah so it's only illegal if it stands up in court, therefore if he sells his ticket for £1k, then it's only illegal if it stands up in court. Jes get a grip.

The value of anything is only what someone is willing to pay and if someone is willing to pay £1k then good on them or more fool them, depending on your point of view.

2 tickets for £1000, the price for the tickets is £37 with a delivery charge of £963.....still interested...and no it is then not illegal to sell them.....lol

Football tickets, yes. Rugby tickets, no.

I have a spare ticket for Friday, Wigan end. I'm off to work now, if anyone is interested let me know and I'll get back to you tomorrow.

sent you a pm. cheers

[delMy ex has informed me that i cant have kids over weekend

Which means i have 2 x junior tickets availible. Seems criminal to let them go to waste. PM me if of any use. Wont be around till thursday morning so wont be able to reply till then.[/del

Just PM'd you pal.

I suppose It's pointless me responding to that

Just replied to 2 x messages to mcnulty and bowtun warrior re these tickets. so looks like they will be gone
