£56 for home games

[crystal_mais]

It is a shame that fans are being priced out of attending due to the pricing especially in the current economic climate.

Unfortunately it is the price for watching a successfull football team. I don't but the argument that if it wasn't for FFP the owner would subsidise ticket pricing. I can more or less guarantee that the owners have a plan at which point they would like to start breaking even and seeing a profitable return on investment. These guys are serious business people

What may help is if there demand is great and we extend the ground capacity. Sponsorship etc aside, match day revenue is still important for the club and I am assuming pays for the support operation etc

I am fortunate that I can afford season tickets for myself and kids at the moment. It has helped that I gave up smoking 14 months ago and the season tickets are covered from my smoking fund.

The biggest issue is football as a whole is not realistic in terms of where the world is at the moment.

The increased deal from Sky will now lead to agents asking for more money for players, when in reality we the supporters have never had and help with ticket prices, the players take all the money where we should get a little share.

When we filled the AWAY seats with blues (low demand games) I noticed none of them sang or stood up even though they were next to the blues who stand all game.


boring fuckers.

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU SAT DOWN?


Unfortunately the ground will be FILLED with these types soon.

Just got two seats in 324 row W.
Cost £87 for me and the old man. Its a price i am not happy to pay but i live in London so don't get too many home games so these costs aren't regular.

Hopefully i can get 2 for CS tomorrow as well!

Is 324 any good?

I was in row AA 328 for the QPR game and it was good. I have heard the atmosphere is sometimes quite dead but opening game of the season should be lively everywhere in the stadium.

haha they were dreadful support...

I can envisage it right now, student types staying in Manchester Uni, deciding to watch a game because Aguero is well fit innit.

We'll have to stand outside the stadium soon and watch the game on the big screen... Guarantee we'll make more noise stood outside than the johnny come lately cunts with disposable cash.

Shameless fron City - last season I paid between 38 and 42 quid with my Blue card. Won´t be doing that again - 25-30% hike. Not on .I´ll come on here or ask around. I´m lucky to get over for less than 100 euros so the ticket will cost 80e on current exchange rate
Thought we were looking after the fans, especially so during hard times

£87 for two people to welcome home the Champions is pretty good value I think mate.

I used to buy three tickets in just over a week on my members card on occasions ,depending how the fixtures fell including cup games. From what I've heard about current uk wages I'd be down to about one game in three, again a lifelong match goer who rarely missed a home game. Sad times indeed

Unfortunately this trend will continue. At least we are heading in the right direction to justify

If you look back, you'll see that there has been a long-term trend going on. We had season tickets around 2004-07 and I can remember calculating that if we were going to miss any more than a couple of games, there was no point having an ST. Tickets were typically early £30's for premiership games, Cat A games getting to £35. Since then STs haven't moved a great deal in price and big increases in actual tickets have burst through the £50 barrier for Cat A games last year. The end result is that buying an ST is a much more viable move.

One thing I hope the club are insistent on, is that away fans should be pinned down to some specific numbers. Nothing pisses off more than a game where we have sold out our home tickets and a bunch of 1,000 pie-eating Wigan fans are sprawled across two decks, leaving 2,500 empty seats. It looks bad, cuts revenue and leaves City fans ticketless.

for the last 2 or maybe 3 seasons,city have kept the 2nd tier above the away fans for city fans cos they know wigan ,fulham etc won't sell out,the home game v fulham 2 seasons ago,city gave a brilliant deal,think it was 2 adults 2 kids in 213,214,215 2nd level for about £50,check our ticket website frequently i say !
