Olympic Crap Ticket Trading Club

Sick of Olympic tickets you didn't really want? Having second thoughts about turning out to the handball?

In the tradition of collective action Workers Online is opening the Olympic ticket trading club.

Each week at the bottom of the sports page we'll offer readers the opportunity to swap tickets for one meaningless sport, with tickets to another.

While scalping is definitely out; bartering is encouraged, with ticket holders to name their in kind price.

First off the block is Superman, Mark Lennon.Mark was lucky enough to score two tickets to the Equestrian dressage on sept 20 and a fun-filled day at the graeco-Roman wrestling on the 24th.

Mark would be happy to accept any trade - or a significant number of car washes or babysits.

  Click here to swap a ticket with Superman or offer your own crap ones
