There will be some on StubHub. There have been loads on there for the United game in the last couple of weeks, but nothing lower than about £90. I'd imagine the Southampton tickets will go for no less if I'm honest.
And no, next season is the last season.

Only if you're selling (/ripping off fellow supporters) right now. The prices are pretty horrendous if you're buying because demand's so high this season.

It's legit. It's pricey but given the circumstances for me (impossible to be more than a junior member) it's legit. Bought tickets off other websites at exorbitant prices but had to go to weird places. Stubhub at least has a pickup across the street.

Do you mean last game ever or for this season?

My only experience of Stub Hub has been as a seller (only two or three times). Unless I am the only person selling at face value, I think it's a bit unfair implying everyone selling is just ripping off fellow supporters. Admittedly, the price paid is slightly over face value to take into account the selling fees, but I have never asked to receive more than face value for the ticket.
I agree it was better before when the club just bought the ticket back from you and sold it on, but it is what it is and I thought after the first season where prices were crazy that they have put in measures to cap the prices?

When I was selling the odd ticket last season it was a struggle to even get half of face value soon after Poch first joined. I now feel no guilt about charging a little bit more to make this back (not over £100 or anything stupid though). It's a simple supply and demand thing. If buyers were happy to pay under face value when demand was low then it's fair for me to charge over face value when it's high.

Also high because Stubhub take roughly 30% of the selling price so they have to be high to get the face value.

Easily have paid 50% over face value on American sports things without hesitation. Not too fussed.
To be fair I got Leicester cup tie box suite tickets for £10 over face value. I think your stubhub is a lot less greedy.
Now those other sites out there that sell tickets. Those are insane. But for me in the sense of a tourist standpoint it's worth it sometimes. Paid €400 for some seats for the Oktoberfest game between Bayern and Wolfsburg (the lewandowski game) as someone who can't just pull up tickets because I don't live nearby as easily as some of you it's still worth it to me. I would rather pay 30% over than deal with losing out on general sale and also picking my seats and ensuring I won't have to deal with scalpers or last minute debacles.

Thanks. Presumably if you buy via the Spurs website they only sell tickets in the Spurs end. Trying for a ticket for my friend.

I was livid. Sat in the online queue for 4 feckin hours when they went on sale to members.
Got dragged away from my desk for some boring and bad educational lunch and when I got back they'd sold out..

Seen some tickets emerging on stubhub today. A pair in the east and a pair in the north.
£125.
EACH.
Face value listed as £41
And Spurs claim to be against ticket touting?
That's fucking criminal that is.

That's before booking fees too which is 18% on top, so you end up paying £150 each. Only ever used Stubhub once and that was for the Arsenal game last month as I was desperate and missed out on the sale date, nabbed one for £80 but booking fees took it up to ~£95. Thieving ****s
