Away tickets price cap next 3 seasons

With video refs coming in and now this, my faith in this sport is being renewed somewhat.

All it needs now is for City to reduce SeasonCard prices, bring back navy socks and have maroon away kits more often and we'd be on our way to being where we should be.

Just need to kick diving and feigning injury out from the sport and it'd be nearly perfect!
 
logically It is the only fair way to do it now the price has been capped all fans should have an equal chance of benefitting from the price cap

A percentage of the allocation maybe but not all. The loyalty point system is fair but it needs policing.

If you purchase a ticket on your card then go to the fucking game. If you can't attend then send the ticket back.

Anybody caught purchasing tickets but not going to the game gets a loyalty point fine putting them further down the quewe as a way to discourage whoring.
 
for those advocating a ballot, how would that have worked in the last month or so. Chelsea 100's unsold, sunderland the same, Liverpool the same, and Norwich away this weekend on open sale.
 
Yes but you will be £30 better off than them at OT. You've made another tenner already out of it

You mean 3,000 of our own fans will be better off, not the majority of the other 42,000 season ticket holders we actually have at home?

Unless you are saying we wouldn't be able to take more than 3,000 to Old Trafford, regardless of price, and are excluded anyhow, due to the huge amount of loyalty points required?

If anything, all this does is make it a virtual closed shop that those who do currently qualify under the away criteria, can now afford to keep building up their points to the exclusion of any other younger away fans wanting to come through.

It's ill-conceived window dressing, done to avoid the real issue, which is trying to make it affordable for football fans across the board, not a small contingent.

But the clubs know that, which is why they have passed this headline grabber.
 
Can you tell us how many games other than Bournemouth and any that have been subsidised by the premier league are nearer this £30 cap in the last 5 seasons?

It's excellent news for away match goers and plenty of £££ will be saved by this cap on price.
Where did I say subsidised matches?
My point is for example at west ham, it was £30
So there will be no change from next season there.
But at Arsenal away there will be significant changes.

Most important for me is lowering the cost of train travel :)
 
Just seen this on the news as i go in. Rag bias BBC cant help themselves though and reported this outside the Etihad and mentioned only the cost of our away tickets

very strange argument strategy you say it is fair and then point out why it isn't

clearly it is not fair and as others have pointed out it is actually stopping younger fans attending, by definition every one in a ballot has an equal chance of a ticket
