Seat Counters - 2024/25

We are the luckiest fan base in the world, our owners do everything they can to build a world class successful club. This is how we repay them ? We deserve the stick we get from all and sundry. Pathetic turn out, lacking loyalty, passion, dedication. Well done to all those making the effort to support Pep and the team. Personally I can't make it as I have to put the bins out on Sunday nights.
100%agree with you
 
Not everyone has a load of money to spend on a trip to Wembley with the potential to be doing it all again just three weeks later.
Have had in previous years..sick of hearing this whinging excuses,I'm far from rich,but will move heaven and earth to follow City..clue is in the term SUPPORTER

So anyone not going isn't a "supporter"...get to fuck. You're whinging about no shows more than any other fucker is whinging about their perfectly valid reasons for not going.

..and, before you ask...I'm not going either.

Get over yourself FFS.

If people cannot be arsed what can you do, the biggest issue has been the huge disconnect between club and fans, the club have used success to completely suck the joy and the money out of much of the fanbase, i don't care that we turn over 712 million, i would sooner turn over 10 million less and have a fanbase completely engaged in the club, a fanbase where everyone can afford home games and a fanbase that would be bouncing to go down to Wembley no matter what time of day. I think we have a small band of absolutely fanatical fans, and it's shrinking and a huge chunk of very apathetic fans, i honestly think we have become like a Fulham of the North, if someone had told me years ago City would be completely outnumbered by Nottingham Forest at Wembley i would have thought they were mad.

Club should have laid on free coach travel. 300 coaches would cost less than £0.5M which the club can easily afford.
 
I stick to what the evidence says not what people want to believe.

The official attendance was 52,192 but we there were clearly thousands of empty seats.

I thought the official attendance represents tickets sold but not bums on seats. If as was said above that the official attendance is tickets sold plus complimentaries then that supports my argument that there were large numbers of season ticket returns. It does not support the argument that City received thousands of tickets back from ticket agencies. If they did then the official attendance would be much lower.

I am not going to post on this forum any more because as you say there is no dialogue, only abuse.
Abuse?

Christ.

This is it for me really. I've felt totally disconnected to the club, particularly since Covid when we were told that football is nothing without fans (what a load of bollocks). I can afford to go but it just seems like absolute madness traipsing down to Wembley on a Sunday when it shouldn't even be played there when the club treats its fans like shit. I wouldn't have missed it for the world 7-8 years ago.

Such a poor post. You’re either totally unaware of all the issues surrounding pricing that the fans are currently embroiled in or you’re a bit of a ****

Maybe if our owners didn’t charge “the luckiest fan base in the world” a small fortune to attend home games then more working class blues could afford to make their 30th trip to Wembley in little over a decade

I’m sure all those fans forking out £71 for a home game against mid table opposition on Tuesday couldn’t believe how lucky they were.

I think there’s a slight inkling of sarcasm in his post :)

This fixture comes sandwiched between Villa at home (£71 minimum) and Wolves at home (£61 minimum). No wonder a lot of people can't afford it.

It’s a great turn out, as said before 28th time there in 14 years and we are again taking nearly 30k. Only Liverpool or United would do similar…shitty clubs like villa that that knobhead on talkSPORT follow would be lucky to take 15k in similar circumstances

Times are getting harder and people have done it so many times. It's not one thing in isolation but a combination of factors. I completely understand why, after so many visits, and with some steep rises in ticket prices from the FA, a lot of people are giving it a miss.

Which games at the Club World Cup are you going to see?
