I would have thought there would still be plenty of pitch side seats available in the groundThought so mate, just checking as thought the new pitch side seats may be different - cheers for the reply.
Good atmosphere there - sounds like he is on the edge of the sitting down starts and when the standing up finishes haha so he will have to see. You can see most of the pitch but maybe difficult in seeing the opposite corner flag on East stand and family stand. Or look at it on the virtual seat viewer if you know what block and everything.https://www.mcfc.co.uk/tickets/ticketing3d
Thanks mate - actually only £450 - so even better.
I will send him the link so that he can see it properly

Thanks Marvin.
That is a high no on the waiting list, City have done well to sell so many. I would expect all those on the waiting list to be offered a seat as if only 5% do not renew the 9,750 will still get the opportunity. but like you say they may change their mind and not take up the season card especially if the preferred seat price is not available as taken up. I am assuming City will have approx 45000 season card holders and an allocation of approx 10000 for citizen members and general sale.
City's big issue is going to be demand, not supply. If I were a first time season ticket holder i would be waiting until the waiting list (which as I understand it is mainly relocaters) and renewals are all sorted. I'm expecting the club to offer some major bargains then to flog more season tickets. We have a lot of seats to sell and, on the back of a poor season, I believe the club will have to be extremely proactive to shift them.
I am absolutely sure that anyone who wants a season ticket will get one.

None of the waiting list were relocators, anybody wanting to relocate could without being on the list. Everyone on the list will be a new season ticket sold.

Spot on. Demand is good considering a mediocre season and and no new signings yet!
I assume it's a WUM from Dismal but not sure!

The waiting list is what it plainly states a waiting list not a relocation list ,the negativity of some blues is baffling.City's big issue is going to be demand, not supply.

Have it your own way, boys. Get your tickets now before they sell out.

poor attempt at WUM there DDHave it your own way, boys. Get your tickets now before they sell out.
seasoncard holders had a window for re-location at the beginning of May, then there was a gap whilst people sorted out next year's seasoncards and for City to seek out those who hadn't re-newed, before it went to the waiting list which was 22nd May
They have been gradually going through the waiting list at 500 a day since the 22nd

I think in some games next season, we will be 2-4 thousand short of capacity. The media will have a right laugh about it, but I don't give a shit. I can see all the big games selling out, if not just short of 55k. How times have changed in 13 years since we left Maine road.

when we were in Maine Road in the 70s the capacity was around 63,000 but our regular gate was 50,000 or so, and that was brilliant.

We are a club growing all the time and unlike other clubs we have provided seats and a pricing structure to meet the requirements of our fanbase rather than rip of fans with extortionate prices. I actually savour the moment when some Chelsea/Arsenal fan has a dig and I point out while he is priced out I am watching the likes of Aguero and Silva for £299 a season.

I'm not WUMing. I've been told by two different people that season ticket renewals/sales are 'slow' this year. I don't know why it's a surprise to anyone. We've had an uninspiring season and 10,000 fans have not materialised out of the woodwork.
The 'demand bubble' everyone is referring to is for the cheap seats, which sold out very quickly. There will be season tickets for anyone who wants them, and more. City aren't going to turn away tied-in customers. I'm anticipating creative pricing structures later in the summer to try to capitalise on that demand for cheap seats. But that's not going to happen until as many as possible have bought at full price.

fair enough, but you did get the waiting list wrong, they are not seasoncard holdersI'm not WUMing. I've been told by two different people that season ticket renewals/sales are 'slow' this year.

all the £299 and £380 have all gone and most have gone to existing seasoncard holders
you see people on here every day saying it has got to their number on the list and there's not much left, some are even buying premium seating
What i am surprised at is your use of the phrase
When these are the people who have paid £100 to get on the list, they are not in woodwork10,000 fans have not materialised out of the woodwork
They may have chosen not to take up a seasoncard at the moment for a variety of reasons, but i don't know if they get their deposit back
There may well be season tickets for everyone who wants them, but City would be daft to be offering cheap deals to people without cards when those with have paid full whack. All that will do is entice people not to renew next year

I am not sure of the changes in demand but I find it impossible to imagine City turning away any supporters on the season ticket waiting list who have committed a deposit to the club already.
My understanding is we have 36,500 current season ticket holders and rumours of 10k on the waiting list. In the event everybody reapplies and everyone on the waiting list buys a season ticket this is still only 46,500. Unless I have my figures significantly wrong and I am unaware of limitations of the number of season tickets allowed to be sold, everyone should be offered a ticket but not necessarily in the price range desired.
