Seasoncard Renewals 2017/18

How and when do they apply the discount for tickets sold on the exchange system
 
With all the money we generate from being in the Premier League, the club could earn a lot of credit by halving season card prices. Look at Bayern Munich. They charge 100 Euros for their cheapest season cards and they're years ahead of us.

You do realise they're asking £58 for a ticket to watch Leicester a week on Saturday? You could have watched Palace at Arsenal for £36.50 this season whereas we're asking £46. So where are these higher prices? Chelsea possibly but that's all.

Maybe that's the plan for the 'real' increase. Sack off a couple of thousand S/T holders, sell the £58 tickets and make an extra million and a half each time. Not very significant next year but if, in ten years time, they could get 40000 paying £58, that could be £25-30m. Not only that, but 40000 day trippers would also be spending all round the ground. A fully developed site doesn't really want too many S/T holders, I wouldn't have thought.
Looks like the attempted full conversion to 'Barcelona light' is going full steam ahead.
They'll realise, sooner or later, that City's core support is about 40000. Always has been and always will be. It'll take 5 titles in 7 seasons and a couple of CL wins or their business plan is fucked. As many on here have already attested, once you stop going, the likelihood is you'll be staying away.
 
I wish we could all come together as a fan base and refuse to pay it until they lower it.

It's a joke that they've done this, after the massive increase in tv money, to milk the fans for 250k-500k. I hope people come off the cup games and skip the league cup games as a result of this, so this decision actually makes them a loss.

All premier league clubs could charge £100-£200 (like in Germany) but they continue to milk the fans, the breaking point for the match day fan is coming soon.

3 home games left, I wonder if we could get a protest going in the stadium.

They aren't assed about loyalty.
Your bank balance is far far more important.

I've woken up.
It's a shame as I have some wonderful memories watching City.
In recent years too... But it just seems I'm a number and that's it.
Fuck me, this business want the space I took for some Chinese dude who has a load of cash.

He won't sing, and you'll be paying more for shitter atmosphere with more selfie stick, half n half scarfer, full kit w@nkers mingling around you as you try to enjoy the match.

Hey, if you like this then fair enough, keep paying.

It ain't football to me, and it's soulless.
Might as well be watching WWE

its not going to happen mate. to many of our fans will pay it no matter what or just complain and then pay for it. the breaking point is already happening, there are loads of city fans i nthe pub now rather then at the match. as you say there should be no increase at all. its just greed.
 
I tapped out as soon as mine passed £400. cant justify it anymore. If anything they should be decreasing the prices, or at the very least freezing them.

I know but even the most loyal will be broken with decisions like this.

Hahaha, best joke I've heard all day.
Far too many "AllRight Jacks" by the sound of things, who are happy to pay whatever price, and put up with the exploitation, and gradually easing out of the longterm city fanbase in place of the Tourist Day trippers.

As long as they are alright.
 
There seems to be a wide discrepancy in percentage increases assuming the figures I am looking at are correct. My over 65 seat in CB has gone up from £365 to £375 which is 2.74% but my son sat next to me has an 8.60% increase from £686 to £745.

My son's increase is quite a lot but I have to say that for my over 65 seat I think that £19.73 per game is very cheap and if the day comes when I can't afford £19.73 then that will be tough and I will not blame the club.

It's £46 for an adult ticket in 109 on Saturday. Arsenal have a category system like most clubs. Rags just have one single price. It wouldn't make any difference whether it was the last game or not, you'd know at the start of the season what you'd be paying at those clubs.

ss3 £35 (£30 for cityzens). All tickets All the games went on sale at the start of the season so we knew all the prices for all the games.

It's been the worst thing since the takeover, for all the great things on the pitch they've slowly but surely shat on the fans. Gradual increases every season have impacted on the noise and atmosphere and it's now going to wipe out the remaining loyal local fans who work hard to save up to go and watch City.

They're taking the piss and they need to hear it from us fans.
 
Sweating on South Stand lvl 3 relocation from SS lvl1. No way am I paying £615. My mate sits in NS lvl 2 and his is £565!

The half and half thing was always going to happen, As long term fans the idea of dining at the top table with Barca, Real et al ewas always a pipedream, We have have reached that level and inevitably we were going to attract new fans, Its the fact the club dont seem to give a shit about us anymore. The building of the Tunnel club was a disgrace and showed their disdain for long term fans. If anything we should have had a token reduction this season. English football i guess is the most expensive to watch in europe
