My season card was for block 205 as close to the old corporates as you could get, then the letter came out saying that L2 would become a Premium experience and that the closer to the half way line your seat, the higher the premium
There was a lot of discussion on here at the time as it was also when North Standers were being chucked out for the new family stand
Garry Cooke then made a press release defending the decision and said L2 wasn't being turned into corporate (the lying ****)
My season card cost at the time was around £500 and because of where the seat is I knew it was going to become one of the more expensive, which it did, every season rising to the cost now of £1600.00+
I relocated out and have had a season card for five different seats since on L3 and L1
I'm now located in 104 on row W and when I look across to 105 I see that row W is padded seats, so I know if there is a change to more premium it will be a little lower in 105 and then into the area of 104 that I have a SC for
If that happens that is when I will give it up
I have to say that that is my issue too.
Some on here have had a go because they think I'm against change and I'm not.
I understand the club want to improve facilities, make more money and buy better players. But the least they can do is communicate with those affected and sort out the problems that City themselves have created.
But no, City's response has been "well fuck 'em".
That's a long way from when I had an under 16 £95 season ticket in block 126...
K gets drenched most games too. We're well aware that's the only reason the seats aren't corporate already.They'll go as low as J in the East. Certainly last year K back was a little more expensive because you've got more chance of getting wet from J forward if it rains. (If? Pah. When.) I assume they'd make the whole of 104 & 106 from K back corporate before risking somebody rich not owning a coat or having to wear a 50p poncho.
Moan,moan,complain,fault,victim moan fault complain.
The ground & facilities are in a constant status of improvement cos what we inherited was barely fit for purpose.
If more of the moaners would actually turn up & support the club we may get the Noth End built then there'll be more starter price tickets.
HH SM must 'Sheikh' his head in disbelief when he reads some of the shite on here.
when the average City ST holder from 2008 has their wage increase in proportion to PL revenue, TV money revenue, City exec wages, player wages or even just as a starting point, any economically prosperous country's wages, then you have a point.
Everything's gone up, people are getting paid less. Doesn't really work.
Can't argue with the principle BJ but it's the reality.
Pretty much everything has risen at a higher rate than earnings with the exception of mortgage borrowing which is at an historic low and that is the major part of most household expenditure.
It doesn't feel right that we didn't freeze prices for this season,but we have to accept that it's a multi national business as well as a local football club now.
CITY - The Spirit of Mancunia.
