Ticket prices for 2nd leg v PSG.

Raise the prices and then end up trying to flog free tickets to schools and colleges when we don't sell out like every other European game - keep up the good work City.

This is a joke
 
It's £45 for my ticket, after the £5 seasoncard discount.

On the one hand, it's cheaper than most domestic away games for a Champions League quarter final, but can't help but feel the club have priced this badly.

We're still a predominantly working class fan base, and many will struggle to afford these prices.
 
For my ticket and a student for the lad £90, and that`s with the discount.......not so long ago £90 bought his season ticket. I was undecided about next season for European cup scheme. Now my mind has been made up. Next season will be the first season I will not have opted for all 3 schemes. As much as I love City, £90 is a big chunk, and a chunk too far.
 
It's the price of a Premier League game so not unexpected, but Premier League match day prices are ridiculous.
 
a few posters have said about the club not caring about fans and tbh i believe it now. we are just there to make money from. disgusting prices. we have become exactly like what united and other teams are. i was going to take my dad as a surprise, but fuck paying those prices.
 
Looking at how well and quickly the club has progressed in eight years and knowing they have a ''Plan'' and a timescale to achieve various stages of the development,were WE as fans always part of this? By this I mean was it always part of the plan to build up our global profile,get a waiting list for season tickets then up the prices so replacing the hard core fans with more affluent ones? Sometimes I wonder......
 
I'm not saying it's a good price but it's an expected price, it's the quarter finals of thee champions league it was never going to be a tenner. We've had it good at City in recent years with cup prices despite the under capacity turnouts and the moaners. It's less than what i paid for Norwich away last week and it's less than what PSG will charge for the away tie.

Chelsea were charged £70 at PSG, so presumably it'll be similar for us.
 
I was really looking forward to going to this game with my 17 year old but not a chance as these prices.
What the fuck is up with city. So pleased this was the only cup scheme I opted out off. And won't be retuning too.
 
For the majority of fans ticket prices will be £45 with a £5 discount making it £40.
Just for balance how many tickets are available at £60?

£60 is the eye-watering headline figure, but as you say that price only applies to a small percentage of tickets. Doesn't make it right though.

Here come the usual suspects trying to rationalise and justify these prices.

Most blues will not be paying £40 with the £5 discount. The first and third tier of the South Stand and the lower family stand are not the majority of the ground, they're a fraction of it.

The most populous areas of the ground are the level 1 and 3 of East and West, and they're priced at £55, with a £5 season ticket holder discount.

These prices are not justifiable, whatever mental gymnastics you try to perform.

What's more, the prices are bad enough with the season ticket £5 deduction, what of all those blues who can't afford a season ticket and make the odd game?

City have lost the plot and it's about time people realised this so we can stop this slide into madness before season ticket renewals are announced.

Just binned the UEFA Cup Scheme, don't know if it's too late to stop the payment but I can't go anyway because of work and I can't see my self recouping the £50 by selling it on. Soriano needs a rocket up his arse, this is exactly what he did with Barca's prices for big games.

ShiLEly.

You've been making excuses for the club all night.

The amount empty seats on the night will give you the answer you don't want to accept.

Instead of a full 54,000 crowd roaring the team on, there will be 1000's of empty seats and a flat atmosphere.

All for the sake of a few hundred grand, which is neither here nor there, especially with the new PL and CL TV deals staring next year. City have already ensured a poor crowd.

I'm certainly not trying to justify the prices at all, just a point I'm raising.
On another point I'm surprised those in the cup schemes are not given discount prices, they should be for commitment alone.

Yep, the contrast with the Hamburg QF in 2009 will be pretty major. Obviously £5 tickets were never going to happen this time, but a more reasonable pricing structure could've seen a full house, which would only benefit the team.
 
In following city for 45 years (the last 40 as a season ticket holder) I thought my loyalty was unbreakable.

I am afraid the camels back could well have been broken today.

I pay to watch city play , no matter who the opposition or what the competition, it is city that I am there to see. PSG, Kiev , Hartlepool - I don't see why my loyalty is worth more on certain nights than others.

Tuesday night I took four kids with me ages 9 to 16. On the way home they excitedly talked about who we might draw next.

But today's news has knocked the stuffing out of my enthusiasm.

I have 3 cards on the cup scheme so I think I have no choice but I will not be going in . I will buy one more junior ticket and let the boys go in while I wait in the pub.

I said there are better ways to protest and if the fans get together and prepare it I'm sure it could be better and more effective than your suggestion.
That's all.
