So I have been to all bar three home amtches this season and about 7 away matches
Sadly commitments and work have prevented me making more.
This means I am "Priority 2" which these days means very little hope of getting the "hot" away tickets
Chelsea gave us 3,000 tickets for the last game of the season, which may or may not be crucial
they were snapped up by "Priority 1" in half an hour
fair dos.
So i begin to consider getting a ticket in a chelsea area.
When this morning up pops a social media message from a remote firend of a friend, offering me an unwated ticket for the game
What price do you think i have been quoted?

I'm guessing a remote friend of a friend doesn't get you much discount lol! I've read tickets going for around £1500. But I'll take a more conservative guess of £250?

Make sure you will be able to buy a ticket for the Leicester game by doing that, Newcastle have said anyone who purchases membership now can't buy a Spurs ticket to stop Spurs fans doing exactly what you are planning. |

It's a bigger a mystery as to why Everton have got so few points than why Leicester have got so many.

Nah, that one is easy. Roberto Martinez. If Everton had a decent manager they'd be up there challenging for Europe. |

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Hope he gets left with it. Unbelievable greed. Well, first and foremost, the seller must be a fan to have notched up enough points to buy the ticket. He's probably thinking "I'm happy to go, but what price will I be willing to sell that experience?". He earned the right to be able to buy that ticket at face value, so I think he can sell it as he sees fit. Since we live in a market economy prices are dictated by supply/demand. If he can find a rich Leicester fan, good luck to him. I'm sure there'll be other Chelsea seats available a lot cheaper. |

If he can find a rich Leicester fan, good luck to him. I'm sure there'll be other Chelsea seats available a lot cheaper. He is selling a ticket in the Chelsea end as per Tighty so he won't have had to attend any games to earn the right to have the ticket. He is probably just selling his season ticket for the last game of the season which is a total dead rubber and trying to pay for his next 3 years season tickets in the process. Seems totally logical to me. The season ticket has zero value after the Leicester game to him. Fair play to the guy. I would do exactly the same thing in the situation. Pretty sure he will get the £2000 or very close to it. |

Well, even if he literally had to do nothing to earn the right to buy that ticket apart from logging on at the right time, good luck to him! I'd take the unders on £2k arbboy if you want a bet ;-)

If you watched the first half itd tell u all u need to know They've got a squad of players which should be challenging for the top 4. Cannot think of a weakness except squad depth maybe. |
