Champions League Final | Ticket Criteria | SOLD OUT

Put it this way, the branch I'm in only got a few tickets for Brentford. I'm on nearly 24,000 points and I was nowhere near getting a ticket, even though I put my name down for a ticket.

The club will have to allocate tickets properly for the CL final. If it comes out they fucked up again like they did with Madrid, there will be a massive backlash from angry fans, as these tickets are for the final.
As has been quoted elsewhere it appears you don’t have to be in the cup scheme to get a CL final ticket if you’re in an OSC. I know you are loyal and will be in the cup scheme but for those that aren’t they absolutely shouldn’t be prioritised over those that are. It’s a fucking disgrace
 
No but you're on here making it sound like this has only happened for this FA Cup final well it hasn't it's been going on for years.

Suck it up like everyone else.
But we have a lot more ST holders now. And cityzen members. Just cos it used to happen does not make it right. Times have moved on. It’s digital tickets not the old book.
 
It’s a simple question: can a member of an OSC get a ticket through their branch even though they wouldn’t qualify through the “normal” selling / buying criteria? Ergo, they can get tickets without being on cup scheme, without having the requisite points and, as some have said on here, without even having a season card.

Yes or No?
 
So you think its right a non ST holder who may or may not have been to a single game all season gets a ticket from his OSC before all ST holders and Cityzen members who have lots points too,
Name the Branch who are going to put somebody forward for a Champs League ticket who hasn’t been to a single game please?

Yes
 
Please refrain from publishing contact details of individual employees at the club. Too many idiots out there who'd enjoy sending abusive/intimidating messages or phone calls.
Apologies, that was me I think. Fair comment
 
Are there many more supporters club members who are on the Cup scheme and on over 20k than those who haven’t been to a single game.

Going back to the question at hand. There isn’t a simple factual answer because it comes down to the policy of the Branch whether to forward a member’s ticket request.

It’s woeful that Bluemooners try to pretend that the majority of OSC members are JCLs. It brings embarrassment on this forum.
I think the fact that a lot of branches facilitate JCL's is a big issue amongst the independent supporters that go home and away.

I've no problem with the OSC. They provide travel to games and any that I've been involved with in the past have all been full of top blues that have been following City for years.

However. All have also had interesting ways of ticket and points distribution. It's a bit of a racket in my opinion and the amount of tickets that the OSC can obtain really affects the integrity of any points system that us independent supporters have to adhere to.

Look pal you've spent the last month crying about OSCs this & OSCs that, you need to move on.

If you're that fucking bothered sign up to 1 it's that simple.

Bet you were nowhere to be seen vs Sheff Utd.
 
10 of us going all OSC members one won't qualify didn't apply though the club, the two who did to save messing about with tickets like the rest of us are both on cup scheme one has 29800 pts the other 27k. if the criteria starts at 20k all the rest will qualify day one. Direct you anger on the corporate side not other blues.
No one is directing anger towards guys like yourself who qualify and for the many 1000s in OSC. But how many OSC will apply for members who dont genuinely thats the issue here

Like I've just told somebody else it's nothing new it's been happening for years.

You said you have no problem with the OSC then outlined a problem that you have with it

I don’t have to. I’ve no problem with the person getting it it’s the system I’m giving out about, I would do the exact, it’s not the persons fault but it is happening and I’ve been told it’s happening. I’m friends with a non British supporters club member (not too far outside Britain I might add) and they’ve requested over 40 tickets and he’s told me over 20 haven’t been to a game yet this season and they’ll be in a random draw for a ticket if they don’t get their allocation. Don’t make me out to be a liar, I know what I say is true, if you disagree that’s fine, I don’t care but what I say is true.
 
They got what they get every single FA Cup final, the fact that it's the rags everybody decides they want to go and moan when they can't get tickets.

Not everybody can be pleased.
Loads on here disagree vehemently with that concept.

What they should get is the same % of the membership that got to tixs for every FA cup round.

For example:

The club gets 8,000 the SC get 1,600 each SC gets some of what it wants.

But when the club get 30,000 the SC gets 6,000 which is all that they need.

An insult to the ST holders. SC are prioritised at the cost of the regular ST holder. That's a disgrace
 
So the club announced that they were going to announce details today, it hasn’t happened yet. Meh.
Nobody knows for sure who’s getting what, when, how much for, flights & hotels and so on.
The level of abuse towards the OSC Is unbelievable when absolutely no one knows any concrete details.
I really don’t know how anyone ever gets inside the Etihad at all given the supposed shitshow that apparently our ticket office is.

Yes, I have a decent points total, in the cup scheme and a member of an OSC. I had no intention of going to this final because I hate Turkey, but, if I can get in and out - a very long day - then I am seriously having a wobble.
I was born in the 60’s & in the 70’s I grew up to believe that the ’I’m alright Jack’ outlook was not good form.
Lashing out at anyone and everyone without knowing all the facts seems the norm these days it seems sadly.
Every fucking idiot and his dog that isn’t a City fan and follows a red shirt are screaming that we’re cheats none of them know the exact facts - doesn’t stop them though does it? We have faith in the clubs stance.
Just chill out.
I guess I am getting too old for this world.
