Ahh. In that case the announcement yesterday should put that to bed.I phrased it badly - I meant paying for the seat at matchday prices rather than another season ticket holder

Cool. How do I do that?
He’s 4 so comes on my knee (under 5s) rather than needing to pay for a ticket but turns 5 in July before next season starts.
Agree totally - although there ARE replacements queuing up but why should ST holders be responsible for making more STs available when we’re having a huge new stand builtThe personal attendance requirement still bugs me, though I do get the counter-argument that you shouldn’t benefit from a cheaper seat if you only use it occasionally. But if you’re scrupulous in making it available when you don’t use it I don’t think you should be penalised for it. I almost always make at least 10 games a season, though this season it will be 9, so it shouldn’t affect me personally, though my son will struggle with child care and work arrangements. But when you’re expecting bigger crowds with an expanded ground it seems misguided to have terms and conditions that drive people away with no indication that there are ready made replacements queuing up. Great move to refund the flexi gold fee game by game though.
Thanks for the info.There is a 'case by case' exception though, you just have to speak to the club.
I wouldn't take anything as gospel posted on social media without looking at the facts from both sides. People do tend to be 'forgetful' of certain facts that don't suit. I'd guess that someone on the MCFCfoodbank advised them to try for the exemption rules?Thanks for the info.
I wasn't aware of that.
Saw the post on X yesterday posted by @MCFCfoodbank about a wheelchair user who has had his ST rescinded, because he's missed 6 PL games.
Another poster advised them they they would probably get an exemption if they contacted the club.I wouldn't take anything as gospel posted on social media without looking at the facts from both sides.

Very pleased with all the new changes.It is a step in the right direction, new season tickets for next season. A promise to commit to a good chunk of new season tickets with the stand expansion, these were big points in our protests and issues. Putting aside a certain number of junior tickets to boot. What is left? Pricing? Season ticket and match day tickets are freezing so what more are we after?
"In the meantime, as previously communicated, we will offer an exclusive window to existing Season Ticket Members for a ‘Junior Pull Through’. This means that a number of Flexi-Gold Season Tickets will be made available ahead of the 2025/26 season for existing Junior Members who are connected to existing Gold, Platinum, 93:20 or Flexi-Gold Adult Season Ticket Members."Very pleased with all the new changes.
Only thing left for me is the cityzen prices. Whilst I have a flexible gold, my wife and son have memberships. It’s silly money taking him to a game now unless it’s caraboa cup or fa cup games
Did you miss yesterday's announcement?Agree totally - although there ARE replacements queuing up but why should ST holders be responsible for making more STs available when we’re having a huge new stand built
Automatically generated without doubt. There's no reason BTW for anyone who thinks they may be caught out by this, that they can't contact the club beforehand (if possible of course) and advise them of (say) an upcoming longish hospital stay. You don't have to wait until the ST card is cancelled and then rant at the club after the fact.I suspect these letters are all computer algorthym produced, and that the club were either entirely unaware of the individual's circumstances, or the system had somehow broken. If after contacting them and explaining the situation, they still withdrew tickets, then I'd get annoyed with the club.
Thank you!Deadline was end of June last season iirc
I wonder what numbers we're looking at here. Are there maybe 1,000 season card holders who wouldn't meet the 10-game threshold? If the majority of these contact the club with their individual circumstances that's quite a lot of extra work for a not particularly efficient ticket office.Automatically generated without doubt.

I’m hoping so, but I’m guessing these will be limited and on a first come first serve basis.

Does the above not help you, regarding your son then?
It’s actually U4’s go free, in case you get asked :) I was in the same boat last season, I contacted City fan support on twitter, who helped me out, next day I got an email saying I could apply for oneCool. How do I do that?

I’d say he’s got a great chance, given match prices I don’t think there’ll be many with more games in the junior bracket, just got to hope it’s not more than 249I’m hoping so, but I’m guessing these will be limited and on a first come first serve basis.

You’re bloody right! I’ve been duped into getting a ST a year early :) maybe it was because he turned 5 in March? Either way the fat little shit needed his own seat. I don’t think there take up was that great, there’s a lot of apathy for FG’s, I messaged fan support explaining our dilemma and they must’ve sympathised and sorted one out for usApply for a ST? I was told it was U5s on the phone recently. Never been asked, mind…
