A s**t away end full of tourists

[Kaini Industries]

Still waiting for confirmation but I've been told that one of those Barca fans may be Valenti Guardiola, Pep's father.

Concerning on another level if the manager's dad believes it's fine to turn up to a City match wearing a Barcelona shirt.

 

[uwe rosler 28]

I've no idea whether he's right or wrong but I'm pretty sure it was the same poster who told us Pep would be signing a 2 year extension and not a 1 year + option for a further year so maybe he has contacts at the club?

No that wasn't me

 

[M18CTID]

No that wasn't me

Ok, cheers

Only getting worse no transfering of tickets to friends and family next season and all away matches are going to a ballot.

Step1 -You will need a £35 membership to receive it.

Step2 - A premium will be charged to reflect the match day price.

As predicted
Manchester City Football Club

Officially a “Ticket Cartel”

The days of our loyalty are NO LONGER an interest to our football club and the days when Generations of families were the cornerstone of any football club are now being forgotten, apart from documentaries where they want you to believe - Hypocrisy at its best.

They simply don’t give a SH1T…

Apart from being ripped off with Flexi Gold season tickets - and Cup pricing the next chapter will begin from next season :

1. NO transferring of tickets to family & friends

2. A ballot for all away tickets

This is what happens with success the heart and soul of our great club is being ripped apart for the love of greed - REMEMBER every Premier League Club doesn’t need fans in the stadium as they make enough £££££££ without us

Football at MCFC is now too expensive for the working class family, and the priority is day trippers/cherry pickers who sit in their seats and then film the 90 minutes with their smart phones

This is FOOTBALL IN 2024

But the way it’s gone and going then let’s rename it SOCCER

Well, the only issue is what that allocation is.

For arguments sake, a 10% allocation for club staff to use at their discretion is too high.

Club should be clear on who get's how many tickets.

It's 5%, which I think is reasonable. A couple of seasons ago at Everton, we were just behind Cole Palmer and another young player I didn't recognise. But the club are entitled to use their allocation however they want.

 

[uwe rosler 28]

That's the text I recieved I won't be giving names or the club as its not fare if they have been given false information. As I said hope its shit but I'm not confident it is.

Step2 - A premium will be charged to reflect the match day price.

That will only result in even more empty seats especially for the not so glam games.

I can't see it happening.

In which case our fans should show him a bit of respect instead of going off on a xenophobic anti-tourist rant. Last season I sat right next to the family of Julian Alvarez at Fulham. They didnt look like old-school City fans either but they were lovely people.

I'm not one of the fans you're responding to, not am I apoplectic with rage about this, but I don't think its xenophobic to be annoyed that a group of barca fans showed up in full gear when there are fans who can't get away tickets.

Regardless of whether or not its Pep's dad and pals, who shows up to an away end in a shirt not of that club?? Surely Pep's dad would know the optics of that?

If you are unable to transfer your ticket then I am done with City. They have empty seats as is, removing the flexibility to sell to friends or family would be disastrous. There is demand for tickets, but not enough to take up tickets for everyone selling back to City. They want it this way so they can sell your £30 ticket or whatever to a tourist for £70. Our club and game has gone to the dogs.

sorry if this sounds silly. what exactly is a ballot? just curious

I think its what them red cunts do.

You apply for a ticket and a "ballot" takes place ....No loyalty is taken into account

The problem is that these board pronouncements start to lose impact if overdone.

There was a lot of independant coverage of the Istanbul issues, there wasn't really any need for our board to say anything.

Sorry mate, but that is a crock of shit. A steaming pile of shit with a cherry on top.

The club failed in its duty of care, cow-tailed to UEFA, and sold its supporters down the river. Despite documentary evidence, witness statements, media reports & the excellent report put together by @Alex - City Matters

But no need to say anything? Yeah...right.

No chance of a revolution with folk like you around is there.

Wouldn’t surprise me if true. The club want you to sell back to them, not F&F. A real shame if it happens and will make a lot of people think twice before renewing.

He's talking through his arse, which Kevin Parker has just confirmed to me.

I spent 4 years talking to the club about ticketing, among other things and the club's stated position was that they did not want to go down the ballot route for away tickets.

We also had numerous discussions about how to deal with no-shows and one of the things that was implemented to do that was making it as easy as possible to transfer tickets.

I'm in the same facebook group. The poster is well ITK at city and I'd be surprised if he was wrong with this.

Worrying if true and will be the nail in the coffin for alot of matchgoing Blues.

It would be suicidal if they did that. Sure, there would still be sell outs against United, Liverpool, and Arsenal but for the lesser games, it would end up with more empties than we have now. And with an extra 8000 seats to fill and a team that’s not looking as dominant as it was, that’s a huge ask for the club to think they can still sell most games out by removing the facility to transfer tickets.

Kevin Parker has just told me he knows nothing about this, and it certainly hasn't been discussed with City Matters. It's complete bollocks in other words (and those were his words) and you or your source (if they even exist) is completely wrong.

In fact, if you want to DM me, or email Kevin directly, saying who told you that, he'll sort it out. But I reckon you just made it up to get some attention.

I've heard that the OSC has asked for clarity on this matter.
Has KP confirmed this, because I smell a rat.
