    Grand Old Team does not endorse or facilitate any ticket transactions made via this forum. All transactions are undertaken entirely at your own risk.

    To help protect yourself, please read the following guidance carefully before buying or selling:

    💳 Payment Method. Never pay via direct bank transfer. This offers zero buyer protection - once the money is sent, it cannot be reversed and your bank is unlikely to refund any losses. Always research your payment method before using it. PayPal, for example, offers meaningful buyer protection and is strongly recommended over a bank transfer.

    🤝 Where possible, arrange to meet face to face - ideally at an Everton match - and exchange tickets in person.

    🔍 Check Their Posting History Use the thread's search function to see if the seller has posted tickets before. If other members appear to have bought from them previously, reach out via private conversation to verify their experience.

    👤 Check Their Forum Profile Review the seller's forum history. Have they been a member for a long time, or did they register recently? Do other members speak positively of them? A long-standing, active member with good feedback is a much safer bet.

    • If in any doubt, don't proceed - contact a moderator of Grand Old Team here.

Anyone ever had problems with a lad called 'Connor Tinnion' on here? Think he is a scam artist and just noticed his profile has been deleted...

Admin have some knowledge - I tried to get Brentford tickets [I think - would need to check] off him last season - I got my money back, others had issues and may not have been reimbursed. Thought he'd been thrown off the forum then tbh.

Had the same with Brentford last year and was all ok actually, he sent me the money back straight away when he knew he couldn't get hold of the tickets.

And he has messaged on the odd occasion offering the odd ticket here and there. I am currently having issues getting my money back for Arsenal tickets from him. Long story being I bought 2 last minute and that coincided with the royal mail strike. Sent a bit more money over to cover a courier which he said he had booked, but this apparently never turned up so I never had the tickets in hand as the game was then postponed. I suggested we could touch base once the game was rearranged as I would understand if those with credits wanted to attend the game. I have now asked for my money back as he's not sure he can keep them, that was 3 days ago. He said he has a family bereavment at the moment.
 
Yeah he scammed me over Burnley away tickets last year. Told him I didn't want a refund after he concocted a story to accuse me of being the one scamming, said to donate the money to Forget Me Not children's hospice, never saw proof that he did so effectively he's robbed sick and dying kids.

Edit to add the username when I dealt with him with was smoketheash420

Yeah he's definitely a charlatan so everyone be aware.
 
I got scammed by that Tinnion last year for Palace away tickets. Asked for money in advance and agreed to meet us at the game, then told me he wasn't going to Palace because his friend had died. Which, if true, is awful, obviously, but he never reimbursed me

I was informed that he would send me back the money yesterday and he would message when he did. Not heard anything since. Have followed up again today, incredibly disrrespectful.

I had the same problem mate but managed to get it back by pestering him non stop. Also rang the club and they started chasing him too (club were very helpful to be fair)

Sounds like the use of bereavements is a common thing with him...

Nice little sideline he's got going on here then, probably pays for his season ticket every year.

Thankfully, a good Samaritan sorted me out so I could still witness one of the worst Everton performances in recent memory in person (3-1, not the 4-0 in the cup).

(Also) thankfully, because of that away fans' pub near Selhurst Park, I can remember very little of it.
