You must not advertise or market the availability of a Home Match Ticket on a loan basis (or otherwise). Where a Home Match Ticket Holder holds a Home Match Ticket that has a concession rate applied to it, such Home Match Ticket Holder will not be entitled to transfer or resell such Home Match Ticket to a Guest unless such Guest (1) qualifies for the same concession applied to that Home Match Ticket or (2) the appropriate upgrade cost is paid to the Club prior to the relevant Match taking place (i.e. the difference between the price of a Home Match Ticket with a concession rate applied and the relevant full price Home Match Ticket).

If you are convicted of a ticket touting offence, or we reasonably suspect you have committed a ticketing offence, we will notify the Police and relevant Football Authorities who may in turn notify other football clubs, event holders and/or the relevant law enforcement authorities. The information that we share may include your personal data, including your name, contact details, information about the offence and about ticket purchases (including payment details). We will use this to identify and prevent ticketing offences and disorder at matches.
4.4. The Home Match Ticket will remain the property of the Club at all times and must be produced together with evidence of your identity if required to do so by any official, steward or employee of the Club or any police officer.

The Club reserves the right to require the immediate return of the Home Match Ticket at any time – if you fail to do so, it shall be deemed a breach of the Terms & Conditions of Entry.
4.5. Any Home Match Ticket obtained or used in breach of the Terms & Conditions of Entry shall be automatically void and all rights conferred or evidenced by such Home Match Ticket shall be nullified. Any person seeking to use a Home Match Ticket in breach of the Terms & Conditions of Entry in order to gain entry to the Ground or remain at the Match will be considered to be a trespasser and will be refused entry to, or ejected from, the Ground in respect of a particular Match and the Home Match Ticket may be cancelled or withdrawn. In the event of any cancellation and/or withdrawal in accordance with this clause 4.5, no refund shall be payable. The Club further reserves its right to take any legal action against any person(s) as it sees fit in connection with such matters, including (but not limited to) a claim for an account of profits made from an unauthorised use of the Home Match Ticket.
5. Payment, Changes to Dates, Refunds & Exchanges
5.1. Whilst the Club tries to ensure the Match takes place as scheduled, no guarantees can be given by the Club that the Match will take place at a particular time or on a particular date for reasons including (but not limited to) that the Club may need to rearrange the Match because of the requirements of broadcasters, Football Authorities, the Police or for any other reason beyond the control of the Club.

The Club recommends that you visit the Club website on a regular basis to check the latest time and date of the Match.

5.3.3. if the Match is moved to an alternative ground from the Ground;
the Club at its discretion shall choose to either:
5.3.3.1. Permit the Home Match Ticket Holder to attend the Match on the rearranged date (if applicable and permitted); or

Provide a substitute right to the Home Match Ticket Holder of equivalent or similar value in respect of the relevant Match (for example and for illustrative purposes only, providing the ability to view the Match through another method or credit to use against future Club tickets, Club merchandise and/or other services/goods offered by the Club from time to time); or
5.3.3.3. Provide an applicable refund in respect of the relevant Match.

In respect of the option the Club selects in accordance with this clause 5.3 the final decision belongs to the Club.
5.4. If the Ground capacity is reduced for whatever reason in respect of the Match between your purchase of the Home Match Ticket and the Match or where the Match has to be played at a ground not being the Ground that means not all Home Match Ticket Holders can attend the Match (an “Amended Capacity Match”), the Club reserves the right to allocate tickets at the Amended Capacity Match and other matches in the future as it sees appropriate without any liability to the Home Match Ticket Holder and/or any third party (this may include the Club operating a ballot to select Home Match Ticket Holders that shall be entitled to attend the Amended Capacity Match). Home Match Ticket Holders that are successful in the selected ticket allocation process will be permitted to attend the Amended Capacity Match and all Home Match Ticket Holders that are unsuccessful in such process will be notified, not entitled to attend the Amended Capacity Match and the Club shall select and provide one of the options detailed in 5.3.3.2 and 5.3.3.3 above. Where there is more than one Amended Capacity Match and the Club decides to operate a ballot to allocate tickets, in order to provide each Home Match Ticket Holder with an equal opportunity to attend an Amended Capacity Match, ballot(s) may operate on a cycle based on the total number of Home Match Ticket Holders and the available capacity of the Ground. To facilitate this mechanism, the Club reserves the right (where the Club considers it appropriate to ensure a fair distribution between Home Match Ticket Holders) to (1) give priority/weighting in a ballot or such other method of allocation chosen by the Club from time to time to those Home Match Ticket Holders that have not been successful in previous ballot(s) operated by the Club or such other method of ticket allocation chosen by the Club from time to time and/or (2) exclude Home Match Ticket Holder(s) who have been successful in one ballot in any cycle from participating in any or certain further ballot cycles and/or such other method of ticket allocation chosen by the Club from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, a Home Match Ticket Holder shall be treated as having been successful in a ballot in a particular cycle where they are selected as a winner of a relevant ballot irrespective of whether or not the relevant Home Match Ticket Holder attends the relevant Amended Capacity Match. The Club is not obliged to operate a ballot. The Club reserves the right to allocate tickets at an Amended Capacity Match and/or at any match as it sees fit and the allocation method and rules that apply may vary.
