I've got mental images of some of the old moaners around me turning up to their seat they've had for ten+ years being correctly told by a bunch of very excited Chinese students at their first game, who are more than welcome by the way, that they're in the wrong seat. It'd be carnage.These are Seat Exchange returns, not unsold seats. The game has been sold out for a while. Your system can't work in this situation, nor is it necessary. Look at Brighton too. That's been sold out for a while now and odd seat exchange singles are just starting to pop up. These will increase in frequency right up until kick off.
Zero, sold out by 9.01am tomorrow.What are the chances of Leicester away getting down to general season card sale?
Aye, I thought that might be the case!Zero, sold out by 9.01am tomorrow.
Your last line is where the issue lies. Too many 'people' with no allegiances to us who wear half and half scarves or video the whole game or do their make up or a combination. @Corky did you work out what percentage went on sale to points holders for this game, was it 60% in the end?I agree entirely that some people , yourself included make massive sacrifices to support City and don't have unlimited resources.
From a different perspective the club do reward those who spend alot of money and also can afford to follow the team home and away. Sometimes they are actually the ones traipsing to Brighton away, because they can afford it.
I do understand your frustration, but no system is perfect.
The points system isn't as I have often procured tickets from high pointers who have sold on their tickets.
To clarify it is frustrating that some with no allegiance to the club get tickets, and some go to Vips for the day.
No idea, someone mentioned tickets coming back on sale, however if it was a high demand game they wouldn't.Your last line is where the issue lies.

It went down far lower than that last season and that was for a 3pm Saturday kick-off. Still a lot of Covid concerns back then though.Leicester now sold out , 16000 points and above so didn’t make the last 3 sales windows the club announced.
Port Vale away in 1996 was the last one wholey pay on the gate I remember, which was unusual by then. Night game.I remember the days of pay at the gate,if you had to guess how many would go to Leicester if you could pay on the day with no limit

It was unusual, there mave have been one since but it is the last I remember. Got there 90 mins early just in case :)How the fuck could you possibly remember a detail like that?
I do remember the game though. We had issues with the locals in Sandbach where we stopped off on the way home.
How many times do people have to post this?There’s quite a few blocks on but there’s only 1 or 2 in each one.
Probably less than 50 tickets on there in total but that number seems consistent.
It’ll probably sell out but if not will look like one.
Train strikes haven’t helped this week at all and yet we’ve had capacity crowds in 6 days.
Time for the north stand extension.
Are you talking aways only?Port Vale away in 1996 was the last one wholey pay on the gate I remember, which was unusual by then. Night game.
What I mean is, it’ll get to kick off and all ticket exchange seats will have gone too.How many times do people have to post this?
The game has been “sold out”’for a while along with the next two home games. The seats appearing are from the seat exchange and will keep appearing right until kick off.
Against smaller clubs you certainly could, i never had SC back then due to having to work many Saturday's. But if i could get out of work early id rush down to Maine Road and pay on the gate. It was between 2 and 3 quid It was a fiver for several years, iirc.. Since Hillsborough tragedy I seem to recall all cup games being made ticket only, i could be wrong on that though.Are you talking aways only?
I'm sure the kippax was always pay on the gate and the season ticket books with numbers and it was a random number every game. Kippax shut in 1994. I'm sure you could just rock up with cash right through to the end of maine rd though.
