Play-Off Tickets Sell For £1,000`s |

Author: Scott Cooper Tickets for the Play-Off Final at Cardiff on the 26th May have been selling for huge amounts of money on the Internet. Ticket Touts have been able to get hold of Play-Off Tickets by joining the queue at Molineux and, with the use of online auction sites they have been reaching four figured amounts. An expected General Sale of 13,000 tickets were due to go on sale at Molineux yesterday but as a Press-Release by Wolves confirmed only 5,500 tickets would be on sale fans have resorted to paying very high prices to be at the game which could see Wolves return to the top flight for the first time in over 19 years. Its not just the old pros` who are making money from the Play-Off final. Reports suggest that School Children were selling vouchers (which were to be exchanged for Play-Off Final Tickets today) for as much as £400 at Molineux yesterday. Scott O`Brien from Stoke-On-Trent was in the queue for tickets at Molineux and reported seeing the Children selling the vouchers for huge amounts of cash to people at the back of the queue. He told IC Birmingham "About 4,000 people were in the queue and it was announced there would be 5,500 allocated tickets available. "But then another announcement said vouchers for two tickets would be given to 2,750 people, but I thought that meant families and couples would be given enough vouchers for their group, not one per person. "However that's what happened and I didn't get a voucher, but about 90 minutes later I saw a group of schoolchildren selling their vouchers for £400 each outside the ground." It is advisable that fans do not buy tickets over the Internet as doing so could lead to being banned from Molineux and the Millennium Stadium. Fans Receive Tickets Some Fans have been receiving their Play-Off tickets in the post today. Season Ticket Holders and Members who booked tickets were told that their tickets would be sent in the post and some of the tickets have been arriving at their destinations today. However Wolverhampton Wanderers would like to stress that all tickets should arrive by Saturday and you should not panic if your ticket has not arrived today.
