Just cos you 'hear' something, it might be worth evaluating whether it could possibly be true or not (which this clearly isn't), before putting it out as a fact. People then believe what you say then and it all snowballs out of hand.

No ones denied it in other groups when it’s been mentioned so for me there’s no smoke without fire

I know a lot of their members (I am one myself). The only defending bit relates to the idea that the group would get 1/3 of 1300:tickets. Like you, I would be annoyed (even though I am a member) if that were the case, but as Claudio ( who I know, and has followed City for decades) said, it's nonsense. The supporters club are running a minibus, so clearly haven't received that many, otherwise they would be taking 8 coach loads. Just trying to nip an exaggeration in the bud. Despite being a phase 1 elite, I have to stay and look after my new puppy, so that's a ticket for someone else.

So do yous get priority ahead of humble phase one elites from Coventry albeit not 1/3 of Bournemouth?

So you think the Leamington Supporters Club got a 3rd of the allocation for the Bournemouth game because no-ones denied it?

Just what I’ve heard speedie pal, obviously something in it, someone’s replied on the thread about them getting tickets cause they’re a super phase zero richo return member or something like that

I don't think anyone is disputing they get tickets as I know that the Nuneaton & Bedworth Supporters club get them too. I think the bone of contention is how many, and I'd say that it is nowhere near a third of them.

Not sure the club would be keen to give 200 tickets priority every match for the black Prince and the sovereign

Its pretty common for groups to have blocks of tickets for events. I've been offered tickets for sold out events via the Barmy Army while Warwickshire members are being told its sold out. You can get tickets for sold out events at The O2 via various affiliated groups. Its not some weird scheme devised by the club to screw you over.

I am a phase one elite (but from Warwick, although lived in Cov for about 10 years)
I'm not part of 'The Management'. just a humble member. I suspect The Management get access to nearly out of date prawn flavour crisps, left over from the boardroom. and photo opportunities with Julian Gray. Other than that, I genuinely know not about what tickets they get access to. Seriously, though, I'm just a member-like most others who go to meet other City fans (certainly pre-Cov-id) and see/hear players at meetings. It also helps raise funds (raffles etc, which then go towards supporting CCFC players, buying boots, sponsoring games etc. All good, positive stuff really). Supporters groups have been brilliant for the club, and are a positive - most who travel with them, whether from Southam, Warwick & Leamington, or Bedworth & Nuneaton tend to travel everywhere and have done for years. They have just managed to organise themselves, which is good for both fans and the club. Tickets issue only rears its head when there are very limited away allocations, which I suppose is no surprise,

From what I’ve read today on Social Media, it’s news to a lot of people that SCs are getting tickets before everyone else and the bone of contention is this - full stop.

The debate about how many tickets it is seems irrelevant to most sane people, it’s more the point you’ve got a self appointed group that are prioritised before everyone else…I don’t know where the reference to a 1/3 has come from and can’t comment on that as it could just be hearsay.

???local??? do you know where Bedworth, Nuneaton, Kenilworth, Leamington and Warwick are?!?

I've lived in Binley, Whitley, Leamington and Warwick, worked in Hillfields and Cov City centre, Am I local?
Should people in Longford have priority over Tile Hill folk, as they are more local to the CBS? If the ground gets built in Warwick University, should Canley get priority over Wyken?

Re: tickets - genuinely don't know what any arrangement is or isn't, as I just turn up and buy raffle tickets, have a pint and chat with fellow City fans. This was all pre-Cov-id, as I have only been to home games since, due to not wanting to do coach travel.

I don't want to put words in his mouth but I think he means local as in from the city where the club's from. As in Leamington FC is the team from Leamington etc.

Just a thought but if you want a ticket and someone is selling them why not buy one off him?

So a supporters club that has plenty of phase one members believe they need extra tickets.
Sorry but it stinks.
BTW I am phase one whet to Brum wasnt going to Bournemouth anyway but looks like I would have had no chance any way.
No Supporters club should be given tickets, people go on about the Club needing money yet these clubs are getting tickets are they free or are the SC paying for them?

No wonder they think the sun shines out of Boddies arse.
