Blackburn allocation (11 Viewers)

Thats not what im asking, probably didn't word it correctly.

Those 83 tickets the supporters club from the screenshot is in charge of allocating. Those tickets are presumably from 83 of their members with high points? Are those same members not wanting to use them for Blackburn (given the potential size of the game) do the club still need to allocate them?

So as an example, I have high points if I were to join that supporters club do I still get to chose my ticket for blackburn or is it still allocated to me by the club?

I assumed what normally happens was a club has x members with Sts and just books seats together for those members, and possibly to other members if people arnt going.

I'm confident that the ticket gets allocated by the supporters club to the correct member. They dont just hand out tickets as you get on the bus, first come first served. Tickets are handed out by Surname on the journey up.

The chaps running the Bedworth & Nuneaton SC are very thorough with the approach and admin around it.

As for it being unpolicable, well yes as with most situations around ticketing. But the SCs have lists of supporters, their supporter numbers and loyalty points. If you don't have the required points, you cannot request a ticket.

So if thats the caes, as I thought it was. Why are the Rugby Supporters clubs advertising what tickets they have and saying they've had double the demand of requests for the tickets?

If its the peoples names who get the tickets why have a post out saying whats available/ not available. Their post also suggests members of the group (no neccisarrly ST holders) may get tickets and furthermore non members normally may be able to get tickets.

"this will make my job even harder". Why, why's their even a job if the ticket goes to the person it's due for?

To add, im not having a pop at the SCs. Mates have used my number to get away tickets this season so Im guilty of the same thing. I just find it odd that SC members seem to always be in here / socials sticking up for the clubs saying how this sort of thing doesnt happen then we see posts like this saying the opposite.

I can't comment on Rugby SC, not a member and don't see any communication.

There is occascion when the SCs are waiting to be given their allocations from the club, that they ask their membership who would be interested in the upcoming game. To guage interest and book coaches, pub/social club stop off etc. They always state when asking this question, that expression of interest does not guarentee a ticket.

It is a definite rule of BNCCFCSC that if you dont have the loyalty points, you cannot get tickets through them. However, they do offer non-members and non-loyal point holders travel only options.
