Because they've spent the last few years treating their core support like shit. People would be shocked if they knew the true number of loyal blues who've stopped going over the last 5 years.

You can't turn all your loyal fans away and then expect Wembley to be filled 3 times within 2 months.

What is the exact number of loyal blues who have stopped going over the last 5 years ?

amazed at how few we have sold, i thought our broader fanbase would have picked up the slack and also being on a saturday would have helped. No idea why the cheaper tickets are being held back though, they should all be on sale

It seems to really concern you this doesn’t it. Don’t let it. It’s not worth the stress. It will be on social media for a week them after the game it’s yesterdays news.

If we get to the final it will be sold out again.

Agree pal

Massive respect to everyone who goes to the semi. It has been hard sitting on my hands and not purchasing.

Very few of us can do every match home and away. You have to pick your matches. I always do Wembley for some sort of OCD reason as I like ticking off the visits since 1970! It doesn't make me a better fan in any way. Everyone has different choices in life and that's as it should be.

Fantastic effort, full credit to them, I think we should give them some of our blocks as our fans not interested

You’re so negative about our fans. Nobody has the strain we have getting to Wembley, even more so as we’re a predominantly northern fanbase without a mass of plastics in the capital that our other rivals in the north west have.

They have played there 3 times in 10 years at Wembley, we’re doing that this season alone.

Maybe people are holding off as they can only afford one more trip and are confident of us getting to the final?

I’m sure if you offer to pay for a ticket for someone they’ll be interested, why don’t you?

Not as rare as you might think. Southampton are in the top ten when it comes to most appearances at the new Wembley. This will be their sixth visit, more than quite a few ‘bigger’ clubs.

They’ve played there three times in the last decade?

You do seem to like coming on this thread to have a go at Blues.
Why is it a fantastic effort by them?
How many times in 16 years have they been to Wembley?
Plus, I think the travel time is also slightly less than ours........ by about 3 hours.

Obviously I don't have access to the exact data, but every bit of anecdotal evidence shows that people have been leaving in droves.

- Matches not selling as well as a few years ago
- Everyone knows someone who's stopped going, but no one seems to know anyone who's started going
- 10 years ago I was surrounded by Season Ticket Holders, now there's only the couple next to me left.

A good exercise for the club to do would be to look at how many Supporter Numbers attended 5 or more games in the 2022/23 season, that haven't attended a single game this season.

In what way have we been treated like shit? The last 10 years or so are some of the best I have of watching City for decades. My ST is not the most expensive in the league. Please give me a clue on what upsets you so much.

Its a good exercise to do but it comes from the position of wanting to retain your fan base.

Unfortunately actions by the club speak louder than words, Ive been a season ticket holder for 45 years and only 2 things make me stop making this my final season, my 2 lads and the fact City wouldnt not give a shit if I did.

Im determined to outlive this current regime, 35 years of mostly shite football did not get rid of me and they can continue to treat me badly but I wont leave now.
 
As ever I go to every game I can get a ticket for. My only gripe I can't get a ticket for many away games because I don't have enough points.

What are this regime doing to you as a City fan?
They might cheating bastards and we might get relegated and then i will hate them.
The UAE might be funding the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan fueling a Civil War. Sheik Mansour refutes this but could be true.
If both things are true then I would want regime change but nothing to do with football or the club is bad at the moment. Swales was worse as was Thaksin.
