That’s very brave of you, but I have been there

For football, a night out or just visiting the town?

Both mate. I can remember being there for a one be allowed draw, right back scored, can’t remember his name, Lee something?

2150 left online.

Hoping L1 and L2 are sold out, or at worst has only single seats left. Apparently Utd have a reduced reduced allocation i.e. instead of the normal 3000 they have 2800.

You've turned me into a seat counter, Marvin.

Whole rows have vanished from 328 overnight. Seems bizarre because they aren't the ones nearest to the front which you'd expect to sell first. I also wouldn't expect a whole row to go without single seats being left.

Are you counting or is that a rough guess, It would be around my guess but I couldn't be bothered to count ?

Using M18CTIDs patent i.e. the slider. I don't go into each block I just raise the threshold in each block using the slider or +/- buttons and see when it greys out so makes counting each block a 5 second job.

So yes the 2150 was counting. It's only counting what's left for sale at any moment of course so it might not reflect what's left. I have been unsure about that for a few days but I think that were any significant seating be available in L1 and L2 City would have greyed out L3 and be intent on selling that now.

Have knocked midweek matches on the head. 250 mile round trip for midweek is too much for me.
Setting off at 4pm and up the M6 would probably mean missing kick off. Even leaving 3:30 is no guarantee.
Driving is the only option, takes longer getting trains.
Then getting home no earlier than 00:30 without traffic problems makes it not worth the stress.

I reckon you might have the academy in with you or some staff. I saw the same. It doesn't look like usual sales.

M6 and M1 will be pretty busy that day. ;)

M40 for me all the way :)

Understandable. Very difficult. I reckon there's probably quite a lot of season ticket holders outside of Manchester in that position. Need to use holidays for midweek games and there's a limit.

I am not sure how to access this slider thingy so I have been counting the seats in just one block - 304.

Yesterday around lunchtime there were 254 seats left, today there are 243. So only 11 seats have sold in around 20 hours, which doesn't seem that brisk TBH.

Lets never hope they extend the stadium again or it will be a bigger embarrassment then it already is

Crooks, lol how shit was that side. We didn't beat Chesterfield home or away that season, desperate times.

I think that’s a lame excuse. You only need to have been to 3 previous games in the last few years. All those thousands you mention- your honestly saying that they have no points and have never bought a few tickets off the website or the ground?

you can buy tickets for tomorrow online/ Facebook aswell

most fans buy tickets from the website or the ground anyway.

I think the reality is our core fan base is about 45,000.

I remember in 2011 just 39000 turned up to a quarter final against Reading. 10 years later over 50000 turn up to a 3rd round cup game against PortVale. It takes time but there’s your evidence of a growing fan base. Fulham United and Madrid games all on sale at the same time and most people being skint having not been paid since before Christmas. If I wasn’t on the cup scheme I would’ve swerved the Fulham game myself due to being brassic.

what exactly are you embarrased about?

The post he made?

I thought it was Lee Crooks, although having just checked the internet the Fail online suggests it was Bradbury. My memory is shit but I think it was Crooks (a far more likely scorer than Bradbury)

Not selling a derby out, the place should be bouncing, but its not just this game its every game theres empty seats, if they ever extend it would be a ridiculous idea

I was at Chesterfield that day and Lee Crooks definitely scored from outside the box. Might even have been his only goal.

We dont have the fanbase to be forced to include champions league into season tickets like utd do. I think we should all be honest and accept that our support is just embarrassing.

This from last year, he gets embarrassed a lot it seems

 

[cyberblue]

They should have offered them to family of City staff, & women & academy players

Me too, it was a cracker…… some fun and games that day, remember the Elvis lookalike to the right of us giving it large!!
