www.mumfordandsons.com/news/toutsout-sign-the-petition/I thought it was already illegal to tout football tickets in the UK? I know some clubs have linkups with the like of stubhub, etc for fans to tout their tickets. Problem is - what kind of system would work & not open to abuse? Even when some clubs have the access cards & your ticket is assigned to the card, which you swipe for access have ways around it.

I don't think it's possible to wipe touting out, despite my hatred of it.
The 'name on ticket' initiative at Euro 2016 seems to make absolutely no difference to stopping touting at all.
The only person who could be adversely influenced by the rule is the end user. I.e. the poor sod who pays £250 a ticket and gets turned away in Lens because they are not Mr Jones.

I was just using as an example of a failed example at tout prevention.
