He did mention it, but I won't spoil it for you. If true, he was treated pretty harshly when he spoke about it at our OSC meeting last year. Come back and let me know what you think when you've read the book.

City would have the case heard tomorrow. 4/5 years and counting now is designed for maximum impact on public opinion and PR image. As has been said earlier, it hasn't worked, we are hugely successful, both on and off the pitch.

Brilliant piece

One of the guys in our OSC Whatsapp group lives in Blackpool. He said it was rammed.

50% but I thought the JV with Oakview Group was CFG not MCFC. https://www.insideworldfootball.com/2021/05/25/cfg-builds-etihad-campus-commitment-co-op-live-investment/

Won’t the arena income be funnelled through CFG rather than MCFC though?

Re your last point. We all know it goes on but I don't see what's in it for the club. The extra revenue from giving tickets to agents is hardly going to make a difference to our bottom line.

From what I've read to date, CM keep getting stonewalled when asking about ticket distribution. One of the OSC treasurers told me that Kevin Parker also wouldn't be drawn on his criteria for ticket distribution to OSCs.

Not a lot we can do about it. Bournemouth isn't much better. Back in the day, Wimbledon, Oxford, Cambridge all had small grounds. The only thing the PL were interested in was making sure Luton invested c.£2.5m in improving the TV gantry to protect their TV monies.

Fucking embarrassing. Should have been booked just because the dive was so shit.

Because they're like twins? FFS, one's black and the other white, one has a beard. I can see how it's an easy mistake.

You think Rico is struggling for game time? Where is McAtee currently on loan? I had hoped both Palmer & McAtee would break into the 1st team squad. The reality is that they are decent players, just not quite up to the world class standard City require. If Palmer turns out to be a world beater...

Me too. Possibly the VAR reviews???

Especially given Doku was rightly booked for his dive. Cucurella's was even more blatant.

I think he is being built up to Messi status and being used as a stick to beat City with - the one that got away. Apart from a very good goal in the Super Cup, does anyone remember Palmer having any kind of impact coming off the bench for us? Good luck to him, it was a good move, but for both...

And pure profit as he was an academy product. This is exactly what our chairman expects of the academy, the odd success such as Foden & Lewis, with the rest contributing to the bottom line by way of sales.

Great minds. Was about to post the same ;-)

Surprised this was allowed to be posted on HYS. Great post.

Why not? The stadium can host 50k fans, which the arena can’t. More funds in the CFG coffers ;-)

Ridiculous mark up for a £14 ticket. I get why but doesn’t make it any better. That’s why I try and sell to OSC members or privately before using Ticket Exchange.
