The Club have now issued the following statement:-

EXETER CITY FOOTBALL CLUB has been made aware of a number of people seeking to profiteer from their purchases of Liverpool tickets from the club.

People with the intention of selling their tickets should be aware of the following:

Section 53 of the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 states that a criminal conviction for ticket touting carries with it a maximum penalty of a fine of £5,000. A football banning order can also be imposed on a tout as a preventative measure.

The club has made major efforts to ensure a fair distribution of tickets, and will follow up all such incidents vigorously.

Proof of individual profiteering from “touting” match tickets will result in removal from the database.
