Why don't we have a sleeve sponsor yet?

They're waiting til the dust settles after the non-event that was the transfer window to announce SD as the 'showcase' sponsor.

 

I a little surprised we've not got SD on the sleeve, unless there is some agreement with funwhatever to not have a sponsor on the sleeve. It's a missed opportunity for that fat git to get his store some free advertising something he's not been adverse to in the past. He could have put it on the back of the shirts last year too but didn't, not sure why.

He's had many opportunities to put it on the shirt and hasn't.

How can selling on for face value be a criminal offence?

 

If it's away tickets, can they be looking at people buying tickets solely for the purpose of getting a loyalty point, then trying to sell on? Otherwise how can they argue it's illegal?

 

Doesn't matter if it's face value or not apparently. News to me, but unlike gig tickets...

 

If you buy a ticket for a football match and can’t go then you’re pretty much stuffed. If you sell it on to someone else without the club’s permission, even if it’s at face value, then you can be banned from going to any more games and given a criminal conviction. Of course this very rarely happens and the likelihood is that you’d only get such a harsh punishment if you were trying to make some serious profit on your ticket, but that’s not the point. The point is that nearly all big club have it written into the terms of sale that you’re not allowed to sell the ticket to anyone else and if you do they can throw the book at you.

 

No idea if this guy was selling it for face value or not mind, either way he just needs to be a bit more discrete or was pretty unlucky. Not heard of anyone else getting pulled for it, but maybe it's some new cuntish club policy?

As for his bit regarding Viagogo -

 

Viagogo, for example, has deals with Aston Villa, Chelsea, Fulham, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Queens Park Rangers, West Bromwich Albion, West Ham United, Wigan and Reading. Stubhub, another online re-seller, has deals with Sunderland Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.

 

Quotes from here - http://www.football-stadiums.co.uk/articles/can-you-sell-on-your-match-ticket/

 

You can return football tickets prior to match and get your money back unlike gig tickets.

Also, nice of the club to sort this now, so whatever pittance we made on it will disappear into the ether. No sign of it in January.
