Khaldoon's End of Season Review 2025

“What we do, every aspect of our running this club is in the best interests of everyone involved with this club and the city of Manchester. As custodians we will do everything to respect the history of MCFC”.

Khaldoon won’t let us down blues. 115 nor this other legal challenge.
 
£25 for a membership that doesn't even allow access to buy tickets..
£35 for a membership to have the chance to buy £63 tickets v Burnley. Probably more next season.
Last year the cheap cup and early CL games disappeared too.

Co-op live is £80/90 a pop and seats in the gods not cheap either.

The two have been timed immaculately..

Next will be the club opening the new stand and hotel..£300 a night knowing no bastard can get a tram home

City made £80m profit last year.

The TOTAL match day revenue from every game in every competition, not just ticket sales but boxes and Tunnel Clubs and concourses and everything was £83m.

City could let every fan in yhe ground in for free and still be profitable. So yes, the rises are a choice and not a necessity. It would have been okay if they made £78m instead.

And they could probably recoup £1m of that back if they charged more for food and drink while still letting everyone in for free. I wouldn't mind paying £5 for a bottle of Sprite and £10 for a pie if my season ticket cost nothing.

What's the price of CO-OP Live tickets got to do with anything?

By the Club's numbers.

But my point is that the idea that inflation has affected City to the point where they have to raise ticket prices is an odd one. @Prestwich_Blue once made a cracking post working out a very general idea on how much we make in matchday revenue from "normal" fans rather than corporate and concluded that we could charge £10 a ticket to the people in the stands and it would have a negligible effect on revenue.

The average season ticket price from the last accounts was £880. If that was reduced to £500, the club would stand to lose around £12m in revenue. They made £80m profit last year. They could have made "only" £68m profit, still the highest profit in the history of the club and one of only 3 teams who made a profit in the league (though Brighton was due to sales).

To put it another way, City seem to believe that they need to make ALL of the money in the world. Only making SOME of the money and having a concession to fans who are the lifeblood of the club and the team (if Pep's constant comments are to be believed) is not on their radar.
 
Guys, I don't live in UK, but what's average price to attend all games at Etihad (PL / CL/ FA, Carabao, etc.), if you live in Manchester ?
