Firstly apologies if this isn't allowed, I'll delete if so.
I'm just after some advice, and some of you will be annoyed at me about it, but I've lost all enthusiasm for going to matches this season, I've been finding excuses not to go games lately, and when I have gone I'm not enjoying it. I know - you'll rightly say I'm not a proper fan, I'm a disgrace etc and I'm not looking for sympathy, but I've hit a point where I don't think I want to go back again, so either I just leave the season card gathering dust for the rest of the season, or I find a way of selling it on.
Is there any way of doing this properly through the club, has anyone had any experience of doing this before or know someone who has? If not what's the best way of doing this without getting myself / the buyer in any trouble? I've seen the club are currently selling half season tickets at above £200 but I'd be happy just to sell for something like £70, and it's near the centre of the Revell Ward Upper (block 5 on the e-ticketing map, row TT). Any advice greatly appreciated.

You’ll regret it when you need a ticket for the San Siro ;-)
However, I’d say that if you sell it on the quiet to another adult male (assuming you are!) with a bit of a ‘caveat emptor’ about getting caught then the chances are vanishingly small that the new owner will get rumbled. It’s whether or not there’s a market I suppose but maybe someone who just wants to get to a few games might be interested?

How many years have you been watching town? You’ve set this up perfectly for Sugy to come along and tell us he’s followed town for 54 continuous years of unrivalled support. |

I know the season hasn't been brilliant but there is genuinely no better day than being with your friends on the day lash and then getting 3 points. You'll miss it, I bet you. |

I know the season hasn't been brilliant but there is genuinely no better day than being with your friends on the day lash and then getting 3 points. You'll miss it, I bet you. Well that's the thing, I've been going on my own aside from my other half coming along with me to Wembley (but she's not into football so had no interest in going to normal games), so there's been nothing social to fall back on. Added to that I head to the games on the train from Mossley and unfortunately it's always full of pissed up ale-trailers on the way back after each game lately. In reply to Malcolm, I've had the season ticket since the start of the promotion season, I'd been going to the odd games in the previous seasons but Hoyle's cheap 'Wagner revolution' offer persuaded me. |

I'm guessing you're young? Don't worry it gets easier, couldn't really give a stuff now when we lose or get relegated but still enjoy the success when it comes around. Although I don't think I could ever say it ruined my weekend when we lost  . |

Any advice greatly appreciated. We all have at some point almost lost the will to go to games. The reasons for this are pretty individual though. I'd hang on in there. Watching Town has it's ups and downs (more downs than ups lately). If you don't feel like renewing when the time comes then dont renew. |

I'm not sure what the best way of doing this is as I'm aware people will rightly be wary of this being a scam. If there's an official sort of way I can do it online then if someone could let me know, I'm presuming it'd just get taken down if I put it on anything like e-bay, and obviously someone isn't going to want to just bank transfer / paypal money and trust I'll send it through. The best way I can think at the moment is if I meet the person near the turnstiles on a match day, do the exchange then go up to the turnstile with them so I'm near when they go through and see it works. |

Watching Town has it's ups and downs (more downs than ups lately). If you don't feel like renewing when the time comes then dont renew. Appreciate the advice, in my case it is a bigger thing of dealing with social anxiety and generally losing enthusiasm for things I've previously found exciting, without wishing this to turn into my life story. It does look like I'm being a fair weather fan on the surface, and to be fair I'm not denying that the performances this season and last have probably accelerated me feeling like this. For what it's worth I would say that with the right signings in the summer I could see the team being close to the play-offs next season, providing we manage to avoid relegation this season of course. |

Sugy smiling vs Man C away, 7th November 1987... Positively beaming... |

To the OP - I don't expect that HTFC turnstiles have yet matured to some 'mission impossible' style retina scan, plus fingerprint, plus left buttock triple authentication scheme. Flog your ticket, someone will buy it at that price I expect and then realise that if we do start an upward curve it's your name on the database...

Fair enough, I've asked the ticket office and they suggest if I was to pass it on to a 'friend or relative' and inform the office they can change the details and issue a replacement card to the new person, which I'm more than happy to do if someone would like the seat in their name so they also have the option to renew it as their own next season. If anyone is interested or knows anyone who might be I'm open to offers. |
