Unpaid members?

Not members but who have a supporter number.
It doesn’t allow me to do it for the Everton match or Bournemouth, which are classed as restricted sale. So maybe it is just once tickets have gone on resale.
This is via trial and error as I cannot see any particular rules.

It will say too many tickets assigned if they aren't paid up members. Unless it has changed in the past hour.

Any guessing about how low points on the CL scheme this will go?

Currently 383 available and there are four more windows left before any more criteria will be announced. My guess is that it may drop below the current 27.5k for ambulant and 15k for wheelchair that has been announced but not by much.

Just read somewhere that it seems ST holders can transfer to other ST holders for the Burnley game. Not sure how true that is but if it is then the club have performed another 180!

This is true. I've transferred my sons to my sister so she can take my niece. I thought they had stopped this or have they just allowed it for the Burnley game? Hopefully can do it for all games as quite often one of us can't make it but have mates who would come.
Anyone know what the ongoing policy is?

I doubt even the club is aware. They create so many barriers to attendance, whether through price or restrictions on ticket transfers, that it backfires. They appear to consistently overestimate the size of our fanbase, or the willingness of the hangers-on they so desperately seek, to attend games like tomorrow. I know people will justify it because the majority are ticket exchange seats, but the fact that there are still 1,100 plus tickets available for the season's third Premier League game at 3 p.m. on a Saturday is disheartening.

It said that when I used my name. When i used the name of the person non my FF who is not a member, that warning went away.
I didnt follow through on the purchase but it looked possible.

Relatively most of these seats get put on at the last minute and people usually like to plan ahead especially when they’re travelling from outside the Manchester area. You’ve got to make plans, ask friends, ask family etc.

The club add to this by having so many ticketing partners who likely don’t sell their tickets at higher prices which leads to their tickets also being put back on the planner at such a late stage.

If there were 1000 tickets left a month ago with no late additions then they’d have sold.
 
QUESTION -:

Why is the club making these simple matters so complicated and difficult ?

IMO, 1000 empty seats could & should be filled by by 'local,casual or lapsed City fans' !!

Men have walked on the moon so everything is possible !!

Exactly how it should be. Know of loads of people who sit together in twos or more, and sometimes one of them can’t go so they transfer it to the mate they sit with who has a ST but who can then take another mate or their brother/father/missus…

A friend has just asked if I can get two tickets for City v Burnley for her daughter and a mate, neither of whom are City members

Fuck me, is that even possible anymore?

The very fact that you had to ask the question, and get 15 different replies in response, surely shows that the system is not working.
Wake up City, you have made it so complicated no one has a clue and you are missing out on revenue and fans are missing out on matches.

No other business would make it so difficult to sell their product, they'd go bust if they did.

I was really ill Saturday morning before Burnley do very easily transferred my ticket to a mate who is on my friends list and thereby has a listed email and supporter number

So I guess this will be me on 2 attended 1 missed meaning I’ll still need to go to 8 home games ??? Not that I miss but felt shite
