Plus the OSC will be in trouble as well.

From what I've seen, all that's happened is people have bought themselves and not waited for the reservation to be put on the system. Maybe they panicked with it being slow to allocate the actual tickets to buy but 200 out of maybe 6000 isn't really that bad.

I don't remember reading that the "supporters clubs got full allocations for people who haven’t even attended a game."

I did read that the supporters clubs got full allocation, but without the added bit.
If it happened then the OSC branch(es) involved should be named because a blanket supporters clubs got this and did that tars all the branches with the same brush and that is definitely not fair. I know for a fact that the branch I belong to has a strict procedure/rules about ticketing.

I understand the frustration people are feeling but it isn't fair to brand everyone the same.

For example I have enough points and am on the cup scheme and have attended most of the home cup matches and therefore could have applied on the first tranche but as I need to have another ticket for my 8 yr old great-grandson who obviously is too young to attend the night matches, does not have a season card and is not registered on the cup scheme I have to, quite rightly, according to the club's criteria, wait until 1.00 today to apply.
But I am not complaining, just explaining that it doesn't always work for everyone.
My main concern is all the OSC branches being blamed. :-)
JMHO

If he's not got a season card or on cup scheme, how is he getting a ticket at 1pm today, or have I missed something?

It’s not been limited to a percentage for the cup final though, and that’s my point as to why it’s an absolute disgrace, they got every ticket they applied for.

Interesting I assumed that the allocation split would be the same as if it were a PL game. If what people are saying is true that we will sell out today before criteria goes to SC holders not on cup scheme then it's another massive fuck up by the club. How many SC are on the cup scheme, 20k?
 
The supporters club get an allocation. It’s apparently up to them what they do with them. Never been in one so no idea about the ins and outs.

But they’re not taking tickets off ST holders. Their tickets were never in the pot.

May aswell rant about the players or the owner’s allocation going to people who’ve never been to a game before.

The club are probably pissing themselves, releasing less and less tickets to fans and seeing the anger about it mainly restricted to ordinary fans arguing amongst themselves about it.
 
Managed to get 2 together in safe standing an hour ago (after refreshing god knows how many times!).

Anyone been in that section before? What’s the view/atmosphere like?

As I've just discovered (via a phone call to City) I've shot myself in the foot with this one as I thought as he's a member/Citizen and has a number he would get through on the junior pull through but now I have to go back to the drawing board and hope we get through next season. :-(

Unfortunately, some of us don't have an OSC nearby. For example, I live in a big city (Nottingham) and there isn't one here. The nearest are 25/30 miles away. Anyone in Nottingham wants to start one (I have no idea how to go about it)? Or can Leicester/East Mids or Chesterfield OSC accept strays from Nottingham for next season?!

South Staffs have one. They meet usually Uttoxeter?

Got on in 1 minute. Can't see any new additions. 1909 left in upper and lower tiers (only about 6 in lower). Didn't count mid level

Out of interest when did you log in, DD? I was in the holding queue from about 10 to and then had to wait for 7 minutes to be let in. Probably should have just gone straight in at 1pm and would have been let in quicker
