“Again we stress that fans should only buy tickets from authorised ticket sites, which is why we are providing a resale service via the official site. It will allow fans to sell any unwanted tickets at face value to fellow fans in a safe and secure way. This is the only way you guarantee a ticket and avoid disappointment,” he added.
