It's the 1 off costs that means we don't sell out every game £45 upwards to watch some of the teams this season is a piss take. Season tickets aren't a bad price ,mine was 600 this season including premium but if the club raise prices I will bin premium. I won't give up my seat just yet as I go to most games so it would be a lot more expensive to do so.Thing is a 1 of game costs upwards from around £45 my season ticket was £300 last season 5% and it'll be £315 no brainier to renew.

Same here, I'd get to far fewer home games if I had to fork out the matchday prices, my S/T is relatively good value for the money. Platinum will definitely go if there is an increase and as much as I enjoy the League Cup I now work a lot in the evenings and so will seriously consider binning that Cup scheme as I'd still get a Final ticket outside the Cup scheme with my points, which wouldn't apply to a CL Final.It's the 1 off costs that means we don't sell out every game £45 upwards to watch some of the teams this season is a piss take.

The club is making a profit, a healthy profit in fact! with cooperate income set to rise for the 2017-2018 with new tunnel club etc. I'm very disappointing with the price increase if this is true.
The club are hitting the ordinary fans again and with no trophies this season its hard to justify the rise.
I would live to know the reasoning behind it - Keep it real city.
You could watch the rags every other week like in the old days,no problem getting a s/c there ? :+)If the 5% rise is true, that's another £30+ rise for me.
My season ticket used to be £450. Now it will be close to £700.
Out if the league and FA Cup schemes, as I've decided not to do Wembley again. 16.5 hour day and £300 for 3 of us for the semi-final. If City had reached the final, that would have been another £300. £600 so the FA can get their money back on Wembley. Not a chance again. If we get in the CL I'll stay in the cup scheme only for the away trips. If we don't get in the CL, oh well, more money saved. As for going platinum, I'm falling further behind in the points system. Can't make all the away games. Do as many as I can, but with the likes of Watford starting at 19,000 points, it's getting harder to get an away ticket, especially with more away tickets going to other sources courtesy of the club.
In the end I will just buy a season ticket, so in theory the club will lose my platinum money and cup schemes money. That £30+ rise on-going now looks a very expensive mistake by the club.
No League Cup money.
No FA Cup money.
Pick and choose CL home games. No CL away games.
No platinum season ticket.
No drinks inside the ground for those matches. Buy at least 2 drinks bar the CL matches each home match.
What can I do with an extra £1000 a year in my pocket?(random figure)
We will also bin the league cup scheme as like you would get tickets for a final on our points .Same here, I'd get to far fewer home games if I had to fork out the matchday prices, my S/T is relatively good value for the money.

2nd May officially, in an e-mailed link to current S/T holders.They have to announce it soon and with only a drubbing of the rags likely to soften the blow it's not looking good.
If the bods at City aren't reading this thread, they will be in for a shock in the coming seasons, with more and more fans not going, dropping platinum, the cup schemes, etc. And with attendances down, I don't care what the figures say, empty seats are visible at every home game, City will be slowly but surely getting less and less matchday income. And the only way to get around that is to increase prices across the board on season tickets, matchday tickets, food, drink, etc. A vicious circle is being formed by those running the club.
But it's OK, because when Sheikh Mansour or Khalddon visit next, or today, the fleet of limos will be greeted by City officials, security reserved for politicians and royalty, and free hospitality that we can only dream of on the packed concourses and at the over priced and bars. And that's after we're stood outside in the queues for 30 minutes waiting to be searched before being allowed into the stadium.
Yep. 2nd May is when we find out.2nd May officially, in an e-mailed link to current S/T holders.
How about this ?
So how would you feel that the 5% increase includes domestic cup games for all season tickets holders like what they do at other premier league clubs?
Trouble with this idea is we get drawn away every round so there wouldn't be a benefit.How about this ?

If it was just 5% I'd take the gamble on getting the odd home draw but I can't see such a policy being introduced for a 5% rise.How about this ?

Hopefully should be frozen again which will technically be a reduction for me & probably many more as City can fook off with the Platinum shite, gold all the way from now on.
