If the FAI were serious they would buy the tickets off them, and ban them for life, especially Block Bookers who do it.

They have that cut out thing in every home match programme about 'did you buy your ticket from someone other than a licensed retailer' etc. It reflects v.badly on them in tickets are allowed to circulate in this way, especially when its such a high quantity of tickets. They would have no problem selling the tickets to genuine fans who are on the BB waiting list, and I wouldn't say its that low on their priorities, surely the ones in the FAI ticket office are left twiddling their thumbs half the time... ------------- What happens on away trips, stays on away trips...except syphilis! |

Mail i got back from the FAI after i reported the lad selling 2 tickets on ebay. f**ken GAA premium level !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daragh,
Many thanks for the below correspondence. Unfortunately the below person does not appear on our database, and given the fact that it is Premium Level tickets which he is offering, it is more likely that he is a Croke Park customer as they have first preference on all Premium Level tickets. I will forward your e-mail onto their ticket office to see if they can identify the ticket holder.
Where it is possible to identify the account holder for tickets being sold over face value, we immediately cancel their ticket allocation and ban the individual from purchasing tickets for all future matches.
Regards,
Ticket Office -------------

Spot on Babysis. I once had tickets to a United Champions League match and I couldn't go because I had a match with school. I told the guy in the pub that he could have them if he wanted and he near bit my arm off for them. I said that they're 2x£30 pound tickets and he could have them for £65 (the admin fee was something like £3.90), and I thought my da was going to swing for me, because he thought I was selling tickets above the face value. The guy said he'd have given my £80 for the pair and my da said no you're paying face value only for them before I could get a word in edge ways (I was going to say the same thing  ), my da has never quite got the concept of booking fees!------------- What happens on away trips, stays on away trips...except syphilis! |

Great posting. However there was a case over here involving Ticketmaster who were selling tickets for a concert at well above face value. Why do the FAI use ticket agents when they can sell them out of their office by computer? Anyway, great posting. Its time to stop the extorsion and that goes for the airline and travel companies too!

I organised to pay a tout €400 for four tickets in Stuttgart in 2006, met him in the train station and the little bollix was about 16, face value was €20, had to laugh, little Bill Gates.
If I farted I would have killed him he was that small and skinny! Seriously, I was on the beer for about three days before that, one of my farts would have taken out the entire stations by that stage!!

Why don't the FAI print the name of the ticket holder on the ticket? Especially those in the corporate section and then they would be able to trace the purchace back and deal with it from there. 500 lids for a bleedin ticket is redicilous and these touts should be brought to book. Another suggestion from the workstation of yours truely would be to set up a ROI supporters site maybe called after a popular chant at ground wherein the patrons imbibe of conversation on a forum type thingy that ..... Aw f**k why doesn't someone set up a ticket "window' on this forum where fans who can't go to the match can sell their tickets for face value and the forum can sell them on to fans for the same face value? Not to f**k up the forum but maybe on the webpage. And there you have it. YBIG = touts with a heart!!!! ------------- There are friendlier places to drink. |

Just a quick story , myself and Mrs Claret were looking for tickets for the Mexico game at the world cup 94 , anyway these people ( I won't swear ) from Liverpool were selling tickets I did ask one lad and he said they were going to be very expensive so I told him what to do before hearing the price . Anyway some other Irish lads went nuts at him the cops were stright in to see what was going on and took the tickets off the Tout and held them in the air and said anyone need tickets at face value . I shouted i need two gave the cop sixty bucks for two tickets and winked at the tout , funny never saw those lads again .
