You’ll get a 3 year ban.

Will they ban everyone one tennis ball each?
It’s like I said unless we take purposeful action then it will only get worse, there are still enough legacy fans to make a difference

There’s absolutely no way 8 away tickets side by side at Liverpool could have come from anywhere else apart from the club itself. Not even a ticket touting website. It’s just not possible.

Pep quoted 6 not 8

I’m sure there’s plenty us older (legacy) fans who have had enough?

True. But it’s getting enough numbers together. We don’t have a fan base with a mentality to do that.

And tbh, City wouldn’t listen or give a shit anyway.

Legacy fans are now replaceable.

Issue is the majority can’t be arsed. Feyenoord last week showed me that 6 away fans taking the piss me and few others around us had enough. End up being shouted down by our own fans for telling them to fuck of jumping up and down. Nail in the coffin for me as a fan base other than the away following we’ve become soft. It’s now I’d argue creeping in to the away support.

The result we all become to passive on issues laughing and shouting down a protest rather than backing it.

As I’ve said before I’m happy we’re having this spell hopefully it will rid some leaches and also damage the touts incomes.

I hate to compare to United because we are above them in everyway other than ticket allocations. They had similar issues and have introduced a system which rewards the hardcore fans. That happened for them as it was kicking off between them and tourists. Feel like that’s the only way city will take notice once someone is pummelled…

Yes. Credit to Alex. Not much he can do with a very loaded deck against City Matters.

Credit to all CM reps but as it’s a PL requirement then it might as well be call Lip Service Surely mass resignation and a refusal for anyone to join would highlight the dissatisfaction more

I don’t know Gordyola. It’s usually better to be in the tent but I can see both sides. If Blues are willing to give their time to help fellow fans. I would be loathed to try to stop them.

Well we got four in a Newcastle stand the other week ....

4 isn’t 8 ,Liverpool would be a much more high demand game and I’m sure you’ve been to city loads of times and I’d guess that was those 8 Barca fans first city away game

I agree with the sentiment totally, but it won’t happen mate. We’ve got passive fans in every stand, diluted with new City fans, tourists, day trippers, and football fans.

Even if a tennis ball protest was planned, and it had some impact, City would film the ball throwers inside the ground, and pick a few out, ban them, and make an example of them.

Give them to all the tourist we see and tell them it’s City tradition to throw a tennis ball on pitch 5 minutes in

They only way the club will ever listen to fans is when they start losing money if there’s someone to theee to spend money instead of me and you they don’t care

I think we’re beginning to see with the drop off in demand for midweek matches in particular, that they’re not as easily replaceable as Sorriano and his mates think.

We’ve only been making money by selling Academy Graduates and have had a run of good years, the chickens have started to come home to roost. At least Cole Palmer is knocking in some great goals and I enjoyed seeing THB score for England.

True.

But at the moment we’re all replaceable. City know that.

If yo don’t go, somebody else will buy your ticket.

And we’re not going to get 5000-10,000 fans boycotting a home game because of what’s going on with away tickets.
 
So what’s the point in paying extra money for double ticket points if they are not needed?

Fuck your double loyalty points and give us back our years of £50’s

That’s exactly my point so no amount of email complaining or protests will make a difference. Their attitude is if you don’t like it fuck off
