Supporters clubs

[uwerosler28]

we have had a open admission on this forum tonight that people have received tickets for the cup final regardless of loyalty points due to the fact that they were " active" members of their supporters club , now people are angry at the club for the cup scheme for which the criteria was made obvious from day 1, yet no body is bothered about the more obvious flouting of the rule that is the supporters clubs applying for tickets and giving them to whoever they want

Over 100 from my supporters club attending and a large proportion not in cup scheme or would have the requisite points. It is the main scandal of ticketing that needs sorting out.

This is simply not true, anyone applying via a Supporters Club has to meet all the criteria as laid down by the club as with any other fans. It's such a shame when people post this without knowing the truth, almost like a journalist.

Myth and the usual vested interest.

what you have just posted is incorrect

the OP is correct, although it is not all branches

We have had to comply with the rules on every single application.

SC are free to distribute tickets how they feel fit & they all use different criteria's. Why would they give them to members who can get them through the ticket office ? This way they get more of thier members to the game which has to be the sc priority

thats not true. I know a few people that have only been to the semi final this season who have also got tickets through the supporters club for the final. in the past I've had tickets for the derby at the swamp when I didn't have enough points, the supporters club gave the club my membership number and I even had the points added, even though I wasn't able to apply. I now have over 10000 points so don't use a supporters club anymore
