Tomorrows ticket issue.
Having seen a lot of fans who have been all season miss

Why would anyone who has tickets give them away?

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
I'm failing to see what the issue is?
A fellow Burnley fan gave another Burnley fan a ticket, how is that hard to swallow? He's not a hanger-on netural wanting to get in on some derby day action.
My dad (ST Holder) gave me his ticket for Man Utd at Dec, even though it was my first game of the season. Should either of us have felt guilty about that? Or should I have given my ticket away to some fan more deserving of me?

It was a ticket ballot for that specific person, the idea being that fans that were eligible for this game had to apply. Having only 2,000 surely you could see why this is an issue?

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
Are we still harping on about the deserving / undeserving Clarets fan debate? An issue caused by one club and one club only.
There is absolutely no issue with this at all. Someone won and then purchased a ticket and for whatever reason that said person can't go and gave it to a fellow fan to enjoy, which they are fully entitled to do.

No.....RickyBobby wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 4:59 pmSo you applied for tickets with no intention of going to give the tickets to someone who either didn‘t have enough points or lost out in the ballot?
Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
My point exactly. The ballot was to give everyone who qualified a fair chance just for people to give them to people without enough points.RickyBobby wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 4:59 pmSo you applied for tickets with no intention of going to give the tickets to someone who either didn‘t have enough points or lost out in the ballot?

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
Its actually beyond pathetic now, talk about sour grapes.
If said person person wins in a ballot, pays their own cash and for whatever reason can't go, they can do what they want with it. That's totally on them and have no issue with it. Giving it to another fellow fan to enjoy, brilliant. I hope they make a noise and enjoy every minute of it.
If they were touting it off for hundreds to line their own pockets, fair enough that'd warrant some stick and rightly so. But Spanish Inquisition tactics on fellow Clarets for getting a chance to go to a game? Nah bore off.
Again, one club and one club only caused this. And they wanted the exact reaction that you are giving them.

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
So the complainers who feel people without enough points are getting tickets, if you didn't have the points and got offered a ticket by family or friends you would say no? Course you wouldn't.

You don't have to answer or justify yourself. Its your business whether you go or not.

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
I tried to give mine away on Saturday as I wasn’t sure I’d be able to make it. As it happens, I couldn’t give it away to quite a few people - all had valid reasons why they didn’t want to go varying from “I won’t go if I can’t go with who I normally go with” to “I’m not going to go to that sh!thole when I can watch at home”.
So I decided to take time off work and go up myself tomorrow evening, wasn’t that fussed until it could be one of those games we talk about for years… the one where we win the title at Ewood……

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
An issue that I'm not happy about is that a young lad (18) who has travelled with us to every away game this season (including friendlies) and who has 6000 points but was unsuccessful in the ballot, has ended paying some scroat £120 pounds for a concession ticket (and the guy was even asking for £150!). Not sure how someone could do that to a fellow Claret!

I agree with you on that score thats a bit different to someone giving their ticket away due to circumstance change...

I give my season ticket to a friend if am on holiday and wouldn't dream of charging for it (I might get a few free beers in the pub but thats different ) ...

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
As long as its 2000 Burnley fans in the away end, then its all good
I didn't bother entering the ballot, but I'm not going to begrudge anyone going who has got one by whichever way they have done it
It is essentially the "proper fan" debate and that is just silly
We are all fans of BFC or we wouldn't be on here

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
Is it a minimum of 2000 or 10% of your total attendance, same as the PL? Technically any business can decide who they sell their products to as long as its not discriminatory. Same way a restaurant/bar/pub will let 15 individuals people in but not 15 lads in fancy dress on a stag do etc.Im_not_Robbie_Blake wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 5:44 pmAre BR not breaking Football League rules by only allocating a few tickets to one particular club.

Ultimately it is a shower of shite play by Rovers, not only out of pettiness but the masses of money they will miss out on.
It might have backfired for them though. If they were chancing their arm that we would have won it already before and doing it to stifle our celebrations, now we actually have a chance of winning it there and rubbing it in their face.

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
No, the 10% only comes into it if the capacity is less than 20,000 eg we got just over 1000 for Luton as their capacity is just over 10,000. I think that in the PL it's 30,000.criminalclaret wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 5:51 pmIs it a minimum of 2000 or 10% of your total attendance, same as the PL?

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
Definitely worth a letter to the EFL. They have sold us 5000+ on previous derbies (pre our last stint in PL) and the police have reduced their operations and "bubbles" etc. They have sold 5000+ to other clubs as well. Just don't know if it will stick.Rick_Muller wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 6:09 pmThat’s the part that we can prove… if that is what the regulations state.

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
Hi, Someone sent me this link so thought i'd add context as I don't want anything to think there's any wrong-doings here.
I sadly just like many many people didn't have the 6,000 Points required to enter the ballot, despite going to many games I still didn't have enough and that's just how it is. I purchased flights about a month in advance prior to the idiotic news that Blackburn planned when it comes to Capacity.
I put out a post just like hundreds online that if a spare came avaliable to let me know. I'm very very lucky that a Burnley Fan who entered the Ballot and won, can't go because he's at a Stag Do. I'll keep him annoymous but he DM'd me 2 weeks ago and I paid him the £30 for the face-value price.
Claiming that i'm just a YouTuber and not someone, who just like you have been home and away, spending every penny I had and going on Megabuses and Accy Clarets for the same love of Burnley Football Club is harsh. Season ticket holder since I was 7, Born in Burnley and raised in Barrowford and thanks to my Brother will be Burnley til the day I die. I'll be there and be very fortunate I am, and will cheer on the lads with the same passion as any of us. UTC

Re: Tomorrows ticket issue.
When I see it I feel the need to man, it does get at me cause I try to be a normal fan. Just a fan that tries to be postive online about our football club, i'm very aware of how easy it is for youtubers/content creators to make their club look a laughing stock by crying and ranting online and I try to avoid any of that nonsense.
Let's hope the boys in claret and blue and bring it home tomorrow.
