I think you can rest assured that JS will have had someone on the case the minute he heard about it.

Quoted from aldi_01
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…


A mistake if the seat was sold twice, I agree. That can happen using an electronic or traditional paper ticketing system quite easily.  It happens.

But the OP said that his ticket was replicated.  That's a different matter altogether.

Let me state it clearly for those who find it hard to read. "  GTFC (a young lady)phoned me on Wednesday to tell me that my PLASTIC season ticket had been found. I told her that I still had MY SEASON TICKET. She confirmed that all the details on the found PLASTIC SEASON TICKET including my name were identical to my PLASTIC SEASON TICKET. I don't know why people are talking about phone digital tickets or paper tickets or any other sort of tickets. It must be pretty clear even to brain deads that something crooked is taking place and I assume that GTFC are investigating. As for those who can't understand what I have said get your head out of your arsse

Afternoon - I called you this morning regarding this and left a message with my number. If you want to give me a call back I can explain what’s happened. Certainly nothing ‘cloned’ or ‘crooked’ 👍🏻

You have to be very careful where you leave your season tickets.
A Scunny fan I know left his two season tickets on the passenger seat of his car, then went shopping.
When he got back someone had put the window through.


And left two more 😉

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

There is a very good explanation for what has happened and I believe someone has or is trying to contact you directly to explain, there is no sinister plot or underhandedness going on which once explained will make this thread somewhat pointless and over reactional.

Wouldn't have happened if they'd carried on doing everything on paper and in that old school exercise book, wouldn't have happened under John F

Computerised ticketing - noooooooooo

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


Quite an accusation to be making.

The club literally hands out hundreds of free tickets every week and still has empty seats. Not sure of the need for an orchestrated card cloning operation involving club staff. Too much Columbo I reckon.

Looking forward to the embarrassing climb down.

I have just had Kristine on the phone. She has given me an explanation and assured me that there is nothing crooked going on. There was a duplicate ticket but it had never been used. She explained the reasons for this duplicate ticket ( which are too long to go into )  and has put my mind at ease. The issues in the Main Stand that somebody mentioned was due to a time lag and this has now been sorted.     I can now concentrate on Saturdays match.  U.T.M
