Similar for me as it's gonna cost me an extra three pints of guinness over the nine month season. I have decided that the best way to cover this will be to have one less guinness every three months....I think I can handle that!!!.

A question. A lot of people on here are on the Value Seasoncard or the cheaper tickets at the back of SS3. If the club were to end those, and make the minimum price £530, in line with other tickets in the ground, how many would pay and how many would give up?

They never will put up a season ticket by £210 because the Majority of fans wouldn’t renew an increase of that magnitude. Most fans moved to that stand probably because there cut of price for that part of the ground exceeded what they were willing to pay. I moved because mine was £700! Would I pay yep but wouldn’t be happy just because a £210 increase is ridiculous and wouldn’t happen.

If they think demand is high enough they'd do it.They never will put up a season ticket by £210 because the Majority of fans wouldn’t renew an increase of that magnitude.

I`d sooner be a happy clapper any day of the week than a miserable sod who has nothing better to do,than constantly whinge about our wonderful club and who trawls through mountains of social media outlets and papers and whinges about any sort of slight on our club,when on most occasions there is nothing to be seen.
The King of Whingers Strikes again.It appears your nothing more than a sad attention seeker.
For your info I don`t think I posted anything on the 3% hike thread but I read the posts and surprise surprise its the same old face whinging to their hearts content on whats wrong with the club and the manner in which they perceive as being badly run with having no thought for the fans.
I will let the people at the top of the tree tell me the need for increases as us mere plebs in reality have no idea.Increases may be needed to cover costs we have no idea about.
Just tootle of over to Old Trafford.As the old adage goes "if you can`t stand the heat ...".
THE CLUB ARE TRYING TO BECOME SUSTAINABLE WHAT DON`T YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT THAT ??
Back from the Dentist after a scale and polish. :-)
Wow! That's some character assasination. Talk about making it personal. :-? Oakie know's more about me than I know about myself. ;-)
I won't character assisnate you. We all know what you are like. Your posts and reputation go before you.
Wrong!
I don't constantly whinge about City. Just sometimes. That's allowed outside Oakie's World.
You don't know me from Adam. Don't even try.
Read my posts properly. Take off your blue tinted Oakie glasses.
I have thanked Sheikh Mansour constantly for what he has done for the club. And the club. There are some very good people at City who I have met over the years. They are genuine and have the club and the fans at heart. But they are told do a job and they do it.
I didn't spend 4 years taking picture's of the CFA and the SS expansion to moan about the club. I can honestly say I wasn't miserable during those 4 years of taking and posting those picture''s on BM.
I have met City officials at meetings who are trying to improve the atmosphere at City. I have thanked them for that personally.
I posted last night that City are going to bring back a form of Points of Blue meetings. Etc.
Back to you. I take it you mean the Media watch thread and the articles I post from the MUEN and News Now Man City?
How long is the thread? How many posts? How many posters? That's some going to single me out.
Let's go back.
PSG, CL. The moaners moaned about the cost of the tickets.
Because of the moaners moaning, your season ticket was frozen the following season. No doubt you thought sod it and you paid the extra £20-£30 anyway?
If the moaners hadn't moaned, there would have been another season ticket price rise.
That's what moaning get's you sometimes.
Perhaps moaning also get's you a 3% increase instead of a 5% or higher increase?
Just out of interest, did you sign the safe standing petition? It reached 110,000 signatures. I did.
Because of those signatures, and because those people wouldn't take no for an answer, the safe standing bill is now going to be debated in parliament.
And on the off chance the Government and the Minister change their minds, safe standing and cheaper matchday tickets will become available. That includes at City, who support safe standing.
The things is, if you don't moan, complain, or make a stance every now and again, nothing ever changes. If everybody was like you, nothing would ever change.
Anyway, enough about me and you. We must be boring everyone to death.
Let me offer you an olive branch.
If you are ever in SS lower, come on the concourse behind block 115, where I'll meet you, shake your hand, and buy you a beer, and we can discuss this topic. :-)

Mine has gone up £375+. They won't do it in one go but they might do it in chunks like they did with mine (it was something like this):They never will put up a season ticket by £210 because the Majority of fans wouldn’t renew an increase of that magnitude. Most fans moved to that stand probably because there cut of price for that part of the ground exceeded what they were willing to pay. I moved because mine was £700! Would I pay yep but wouldn’t be happy just because a £210 increase is ridiculous and wouldn’t happen.
2009 - £10 increase
2010 - £20^
2011 - £50^
2012 - £75^
2013 - £60^
2014 - £50^
2015 - £50^
2016 - froze for a year
2017 - £50^
2018 - £20^
They could easily bump it up like 2012-2015 for me, between 2018-2021 for the Value Gold lot - that's the £530 PB is talking about.

See, there's humour to be had in answering the question.

No wonder you can't afford the price rise if you're buying random fucking blokes from the internet a pint at £5 a pop. Cut this out of your life and you'll be able to buy 2 season tickets next year
