" CARLING CUP TICKETS BEING AUCTIONED OFF "

Mon Feb 06, 2012 9:58 pm

Merthyr have received 6 tickets like all the other teams in their league.

Merthyr will be auctioning the 6 tickets to the highest bidder.

All profits go to Merthyr.


Personally I feel the only two teams who should get all the tickets should be the finalists, just my opinion.

Is this legal? I thought it was illegal to sell on any ticket and especially so if it is for profit.

I googled this earlier and the only people allowed to sell football tickets are official outlets. Irrelent of price.

From what I read the sale of face value tickets is also illegal or even selling them at a loss illegal.

Im not sure on that front, just I thought I would let people know that trying to make a quick 30 quid could well end up in a fine and criminal record.

Doesn't matter if they buy it then go to the game and then complain. They may have video'd you or recorded your conversation in sale. Either makes you vulnerable to court action and a criminal record. Moral....Don't rip City fans off, cos big brother is watching!!!!!!!

It is illegal to sell tickets only if u do not have a licence. Where I work we have tickets for Wales rugby games and prem football games, however we are not allowed to sell these unless we make them a package and sell them with a hotel etc... If we tried to sell ticket only the fines are very severe...
