Just a word of warning. Should you abuse the ticket system, such as go to the ground , buy a ticket and then use the same status of ticket (whatever category) to buy on line, SCFC will red card you and you willnever be able to purchase a ticket from the club again. In fact the ticket you have purchased may become a problem. Sorry but that is fact and SCFC are on to it, so advice is don't do it, if you are a real fan.
In any event we should all get a ticket for the semi finals, true fans that is

I object to this true fans shite. i live in NY. when I lived in stoke I was a season ticket holder. I have watched Stoke play at 47 different grounds. Wwhen we were shite I always went whenever in Stoke, my sons first ever game was Wycombe Wanderers. Funny how getting a ticket was never a problem then. However, it's probably going to be impossible for me and my family to get tickets even though i'm flying home. I guess i'm not a true fan though, right?

Everyone knows true fans have seen us play at an absolute minimum of 48 grounds. |

So will they be doing anything to close the loophole? Or is that too much hastle? Or too sensible? From Scholes' reply it sounded a lot like Stafford Stokies above.   |

Stoke joke of a ticket office manager couldnt manage his cd collection the tit, who gives a toss if you get red carded?
Selling Silver memberships to fans so you can get tickets before they are supposed to get them shows what a cow boy outfit it really is in charge.

You think privileged members being able to buy double their allocation and thus deprive others of tickets is "not really a problem"? |

I would listen to this warning as I know this has come from within the club.
It's quite right too.

Anyone who is prepared to take the chance is just a little bit nuts. Not to mention the fact that they will all be season ticket holders. Would the club cancel their season tickets? |

You know what, this could be false, it could be fact, someone tells me there is a huge loophole but I no longer give a fuck. This isn't some tearful oatcake resignation, I love them, and I'm not Stoke's biggest supporter (but I'm damn sure I'm in the top 32,047) but the sheen has gone. The odious cunt has won, whether it be slimy queue jumping bribery, incompetence beyond comprehension or causing wilful conflict amongst supporters he has beat out the romance out of me.
I'm giving serious consideration to going to the Scottish Grand National that weekend and giving it a miss. Watch it on the sunday in a English friendly pub and celebrate wildly if we win and commiserate even wilder if we lose but this shit, this filth, its just not worth it.
A day to remember? Any Stoke supporter worth a bean, with a memory that stretches longer than 3 years should look on these past few days and the club with utter contempt.

Right, I am Stoke fan, I spend a great deal of time abroad and I come back for EVERY home match so please before you think I am a mouthpiece for the club, I am happy to talk to any one of you about cold nights in Scunthorpe and then a 4000 mile trip home. I was trying to do some people a favour. Clearly some of you feel that you can do everything better than the people who work at the club. I realise some decisions by the club are ill conceived and I was trying to watrn real Stoke fans. Clearly a waste of time.

I know that 99% of people on here are honest, true fans and hopefully I am wasting my time putting it on here, there are however, in any walk of life or social setting, people who will try and ruin it for real fans who want to see the majority suffer. I would hate to see people missing out because the ticketing system has been abused as would most people. If anyone has "accidentally" purchased tickets in the manner described in the original post then I would get to the ticket office and explain asap Gareth Ekin Chairman, Stoke City Fans Forum |
