To those that got tickets below 1600 points… will you need us to remind you which one Haji Wright is or the lyrics to twist and shout?

@Sky Blue Harry H - probably one for you mate. I'm sure this can't be true, this is the kind of thing when people see it that riles them so I'm sure you can put it to bed. Most of what I know is that L&W aren't a top package holder and as such only have 30 tickets per game and it's the same regulars who (mostly) go. Similarly Nun&Bed have around 100 tickets but they are a much bigger outfit. Harry will hopefully be bale to fill in a lot more and before anyone gets at him, I've seen him at enough games to know he'd be in the top points bracket regardless, simply how he likes to travel and removes the complexity.

I know someone who joined them recently and didn't manage to get Luton tickets through them.

But I do know people who got Oxford tickets despite low points tallies, but through a different group

Just an observation on the 'supporters club' issue. As long as the number of tickets taken by the supporters clubs doesn't exceed the number of members in each points bracket I don't really have a problem with other supporters club members accessing those tickets. Although its on a slightly different scale, I don't see its any different to posters on here (including in this thread) with high points totals offering to buy tickets for other posters or mates who don't have sufficient points.

If a supporters club gets 30 tickets through sponsoring players (expensive!) then tickets will go to those who travel most (likely to have most points). If there is a game where there is less demand, then there is a possibility that a ticket might go to someone within the supporters group with less points than another fan may have. Those circumstances would be rare, and it is unlikely someone is going to get hold of a ticket via the group for a high demand game (as the regulars who travel and have high points are always going to get preference). Plymouth, l&w didn't run a coach, but a group went independently by car, train and bicycle ;) so it is possible a newer member may have accessed (legitimately) a ticket if under 30 'regulars' went down. I missed that game, as my wife wouldn't let me go :rolleyes:

Agreed, I think it’s the amount they get. I actually don’t know how many they get but it might be worth limiting it. I have no issue with supporters groups getting tickets but if they all get say 100 each then that’s 500 tickets approx gone.

I know people myself who got tickets to Oxford away from a supporters group. For the first time as they just fancied a close away game. So they can’t be short of tickets.

“It’s the amount they get. I actually dont know how many they get”
says it all.The jealous politics from those that suddenly decide they should get a ticket when its a big game

They get tickets equal to the number of season ticket-holding members, don't they? That's what has been said here before, and by the club.

I thought the issue was that they get that number regardless of how many points those members have — something the club says doesn't happen, but some people from the supporters' clubs claim does.

I know of a few occassions where fans have used the supporters clubs to get away tickets when they havent been to a game in 2 years! Blackpool away was absolutely full of them.
Despite their constant denials and telling us its all above board etc it clearly isnt and its a loophole that needs closing.
Worst thing was when the club openly lied to me about it via email.

So did you go and ask all those at Blackpool how they got a ticket ?
another one full of shit to stir the pot.

Supporter clubs will be getting loads without any requirement for points so they amount that went on sale today will be no where near 2500

Not exact figures re: number of members, but I think we have about 80+. Through sponsorship, we get 30 tickets (nowhere near as many tickets as ST holders that we have), so being a member of the club does NOT guarantee you an away ticket, by any stretch.

Haha, I've only told half the story, we left the pub on the Friday night 11pm 40 of us loaded the coach with beers, got to Sunderland in the early hours of Saturday morning, now remember in them days there was no 24 hour opening for shops or cafes etc.

We did something that I'm not proud of to this day, as there was nowhere to drink or eat we noticed the milkman delivering milk on the doorsteps of the local residents, we helped ourselves, these are the things that happen when you pissed up.

It actually made the news on ITN and in the local press, headlines, "Coventry fans came and left with the milk" 😱

Then on to the game and Whitley Bay until the early hours of Sunday morning and then back to Cov.
