So basically screwing us over once more. The original brief was Barnet and Bromley now the goalposts have changed. Screw the decisions makers at this club.

Presumably sorted so that superfans and their mates don’t lose out.

The club is on a high at present as we keep getting told
"We've got our club back", looking forward to the powers
upstairs asking for my continued support when we are
back to mid table mediocrity..
I'll pleasantly remind them of the Solihull tickets debacle
and how they couldn't accommodate for regularly away fans
who have followed the club through the dark days of yesteryear
that is of course if any of them are still at the club ...

But who buys a ticket for such an important match and then returns it?

I'm proper pissed off at the clubs attitude towards us. I'd love to go missed out cos I never knew they were on sale, my fault, now theres a chance to get one theyve changed the criteria well bollocks to them.

I have heard that the returns thing is not true. If it was, the amount would be so small as to not be worth publicising. Anyone not going could sell their ticket for more than face value.

Done so people would not be angry. In reality there was always a possible chance that this could happen as Solihull know the tickets sold number and the safe capacity of the designated area for away standing.

Because you don't need Barnet/Bromley stubs any longer?

Maybe they thought people would have thrown them away after batch 1 sold out, or with it being nearly 3 weeks ago lost them or got rid in the meantime. Seems reasonable to me.
