Liverpool are clamping down on the transferring of tickets and this week a number of members have been handed a temporary suspension and been placed under investigation after allegedly breaching club rules.
Confidential has seen numerous emails sent to fans, who have previously sent their ticket to others via the club’s official channels, which allows the initial ticket-holder to distribute their ticket a couple of times a season in case they can’t make the fixture. Only members who attended at least 13 Premier League home games the previous season have this option.
Many fans are grumbling at this as they have given a ticket to a friend or family member in good faith for a fixture they cannot attend for whatever reason – not tried to tout them for mass profit – and have since been suspended.
