Are You Officially Priced Out Yet, Or Almost?

I love City ofc but also understand the need to have some balance. As it stands i am ok as i am single and have a decent wage but these things can change at the drop of a hat.
I do understand that I really do but with careful planning things can be paid for even in these tough times if people budget.

The main problem is people leave things until the last minute then they have £600 to find out of nowhere and it's a lot of money I get that.

I understand there are extreme circumstances for some people not affording tickets but in general it's poor budgeting and overspending on rubbish.

I put £12 per week into a savings account starting each July. Season ticket paid.

I've had times in my life when I've been out if work and still managed to do the same thing.

Did I miss out on the pub, latest shirt, sky TV? Yes but I went to watch City.

£12 per week who cannot afford that even on the most basic of wages?

And when the price goes up to £20 a week will you still be defending the prices?
Yes why not?

Budget. It's not hard but people want everything. Ps4, wide screen telly, I phone , Sky etc etc

All bleeding hypocrites.


Enjoy your debate.

Unbelievable, I get the feeling you've never been down to your last pound and have no idea how much of a struggle real life can be. £12 left over at the end of the week to some is a dream. Please step back and have a think before posting anymore of your naive opinions.

Hardly. The last time I was in there it was full of ruffians who stood up for most of the game.

That's what you get when they keep the ticket price down. ;-)
Don't worry. I moved to a seat in CB lower for the second half. My knees were killing and my limit on pretending to be a member of the working-class is no more that an hour, at best.

In your honest opinion does that justify the pricing of football in general?

Do you actually believe that because people can cut back in their spending and budget all year then clubs can charge whatever they want?

Honestly, you are full of shit Kiam. People don't want everything, if you had a bit of experience of the real world you would know that.

Why is it that every person that makes an argument in favour of the price rises feels the need to make up stories about those that arent in favour?

What are you typing on at the moment? Smart phone? Laptop? There's £500 to start with.

Do you have a car? What make shoes are you wearing at the moment? Do you have a games console?

At least try and think about what I'm saying if you disagree then fair enough that's up to you but I know I'd rather budget without stress than struggle with stress.

agree with you Kiam06, too many working class heroes about.
