Unofficial Wolves Away pre match thread

[DiscoSteve]

How can it start at 32k when the Derby last season was at 31k

we all got a load of points for being platinum, CL & FA Cup games and being in the cup schemes again, always was going to go higher

 

[daveyboybluemoon]

Ticket info out, initial criteria goes down to 24k as opposed to 18.5k for last season which was a 3.00pm ko.

https://www.mancity.com/tickets/mens/wolverhampton-wanderers-v-man-city-ticket-information-2425

2024 started at 30,000 this season its 32,000

Since then as someone on all cup schemes and platinum I have acquired

380 Season ticket
600 for 3 x cup schemes last season
60 (20 x 3) CL home games (Feyenoord, Brugge, Madrid)
40 (20 x 2) FA Cup home games (Plymouth & Salford)

Total 1,080

(Prague, Watford & Inter were granted before I could purchase Wolves tickets last season)

Last season I could get tickets in the 8th Window (had 23,130 I think), this season I'm in the 9th Window with 24,210

Doesn't quite add up...as a minimum I should be in the same place, if anything slightly higher if people haven't renewed, wasn't on the schemes last year etc...

(edit, I might be and they could have have just stretched the windows out if some at the higher end have tipped over, just doesn't feel like it)

Unfortunately it does add up
More tickets siphoned off to day trippers
Less to the Legacy fans

Then they expect the point holders to rock up early with photo id to collect their own ticket !

Guesswork or knowledge?
Or the suspicion the club have to find a new way to hit fans after ticket price reductions.

It wouldn’t be surprising if we move to a ballot system next season. For new Season Ticket Holders, getting tickets to away games is becoming increasingly difficult unless it’s something like Brighton away on a Tuesday night in December.

Is that correct? Have they put that condition on it?

Would you risk passing on your ticket even for a mate? Might comeback and bite you on the arse
However they have a 7 day non return policy, so if something crops up. City have created an empty seat policy

Umm?

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

If only there was a rep on City Matters who represented season ticket holders then maybe they could pressure the club into being more transparent...

This is the state of play for Spurs, why can't we do something similar but also with each allocation be honest enough to say how many tickets each group has been allocated. How many of the 3,010 tickets are going to each of these groups, as for season ticket members which I assume is the loyalty points pot, there should be 1,806.

Season Ticket Members, Seasonal Hospitality Members, Owner, Board of Directors, Football Management, Players, Club Officials and Staff, Former Players, Club Partners, and the Man City Supporters Club.

They’ve started doing this to scare fans. It looks like the new ticketing compliance manager is behind it. Just be careful blues if you post your ticket on the forum or Facebook groups you might get it checked.

No sure how these “checks” would work though? No names on tickets, no mention of having to pick up on the day, no explicit requirement to carry ID (unlike say Madrid or Juventus away)?

Your match ticket doesn’t get posted/emailed out.
You have to collect it from the host club’s ticket office.
You can only collect it with photo ID.

They did for Wembley for some and for Fulham I understand from some posts on here later last season

That's only for people who haven't recieved their match ticket by the day before the game. All tickets will be posted out as normal.

They’re going on hold some tickets back for collection.

They tried it pre-Covid for a while 19-20 season and tbh the points requirements did drop as people wouldn’t risk passing them on.
What year did we scrap the away points?

 

[r.soleofsalford]

I'm so incredibly bored.

Can we start to discussing the first game of the season already... !?

Nope they have said that some tickets may be checked at wolves. But they won't be making any blue que up at the wolves ticket office for their ticket.

You think Trafford will start? I don't think he will. I wonder whether Rodri will be available given he wasn't pictured at the academy on Day 1

I struggle to know how to fit Marmoush in.

In the heat of the Club World Cup we used our squad to the max. and alternated between Marmoush and Haaland rather than playing them as a 2. When Alvarez was at City, he'd be the no.2 striker and run from deep, and he really complemented Haaland. Although I thought Marmoush did very well for us it was often down to his good individual play rather than team play. Marmoush made a lot of runs, but very rarely did we ever play him in.

I think our midfield play is going to be much more progressive this season. Foden looked better at the Club World Cup and Reijnders and Cherki look like very good players for forward runners. However, where do you play Marmoush? I think Doku is going to start as I sense he's improving, and I think Cherki might be best on the right. I put Marmoush on the right but perhaps Cherki is better playing there or Bobb.

Ideally I think Marmoush should be central but that's Haaland's terriitory.
