The problem here is that, with no offence meant to Golfer, he's a bit of a strange poster/WUM on here so most will not be sure whether to take this with a pinch of salt


Take it with what you like but everything I have said is completely true.. It is far too  serious to joke about  I'll go so far as to say that in my opinion it is somebody or bodies who has access to the machine in the office. If the system wont allow the same 2 tickets through then somebody on the gate is also involved

Are you saying it is an inside job with club employees working to help con the club out of money to ensure their mates get in free of charge? That's quite an allegation to make.

Of course it needs investigating and if possible the culprits caught but I like to think no employees are involved in any wrongdoing.

Have you sent a picture of it to anyone or on social media? Even if it was quickly taken down, you never know who saw it.

Not sure but surely you’ve missed it

Say you say you sell 3000 park  tickets at 10 each
Then
Sell 50 replica ones at 10 each that means the company gets the money for the 3000 plus the 50 replica ones but the official figures only show 3000 not the 50 replica ones this giving the company  £500 not declared.

We need answers.
@Steve Wraith, how has this happened and what have you put in place to prevent this happening again?

There is no way this is happening especially with the new ticket system smell of a fat snake trying to dis the new owners ticketing system.Why start this without proof,if someone has it then show if not enjoy the football and stop disrespecting the new ideas that have been put in place

All the ticket holder would have to do is show the email confirmation to a steward

Should use a digital ticket that regenerates the QR code for every game. Or if people don't want to use a phone, good old fashioned ID with a ticket that has your face printed on it.

Otherwise you're just asking for forgery.

It’s a mistake, pure and simple. On Saturday it seemed like the electronic system was down anyway.

It doesn’t tend to happen at modern stadiums or higher up the league as the turnstiles are connected to then barcode scanner…BP isn’t that modern for plenty of reasons.

At the Barnet game a bloke near us was sat in a ST holders seat, he’s purchased the ticket online and the system had allowed it. The ST holder asked him to shift and pointed him towards a steward, he spoke with the steward and they sorted it. Simples.

Some weird accusations and over the top responses here, I don’t think anyone is saying the original poster is lying but to imply some weird inside job is bizarre. There’s literally nothing in that for anyone…


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
