BOGOF

[noely]

A bit off topic but does anyone know when the money is coming out for Bayern at home?

Ticket office guy told me Monday/Tuesday of next week.

OK mate i thought it would be, they seem to take it almost exactly a month to the date of the game

I got told by ticket office that it would be the 24th which is tomorrow so maybe make sure you have the funds in tonight just in case

Why they can't just wait till the end of the month, so the majority of peoples pay has gone in their bank I don't know, its not like we're desperate for money, like when we sold season tickets in Feb, in the hope it would keep us afloat till the end of the season.

This is an example of where the club could help its own fans out a bit more imho, they know they're getting the money from those on the scheme, why do they need it a month (or more) in advance ?

Not had my free ticket yet. Phoned on Saturday after the match. Are they delaying sending get them or do I need to phone them?

Id give them a ring if I were you. I ordered mine on Tuesday and they came through in the post this morning.

My free Moscow tickets have arrived so ordering online after having money taken via cup scheme does work.

Mine arrived the same

Yea that would be a nice idea and a month before does seem a bit premature.

In other news my free tickets for CSKA have turned up today, ordered them online on Monday

Me too. Well done City. Credit where due.

Just claimed my free ticket for my lad. Apparently there’s not many tickets left so the BOGOF scheme is working!

They had to move us up to Level 3 to get 2 seats together, where seats are £25 instead of the £30 I paid. So not only did I get a free ticket they credited my card with £5.

I don’t know why the ticket office gets so much criticism, I’ve never had anything but excellent service off them

Good gesture by the club but wonder if it could backfire with thousands of fans with tickets that they don't know what to do with ? Odd seats all over the place.don't think its always price that effects midweek games ,work travel,school etc all play a part.will be interesting to see how it pans out as sometimes can't work round even free tickets.but still well done city!

Would be good to get the 'sold out' signs up as soon as possible for this one, then go about setting the atmosphere up similar to the Hamburg game. Why not give out free inflatables on the night? For me, that made the occasion and really got the ground going before the game started.

I had bought 4 tickets for the game and have claimed my 4 freebies. They're all going to City fans who aren't season ticket holders and definitely wouldn't have gone to the game if the price hadn't been halved. It's a great idea as the game would have been so flat without any away fans and the crowd of about 30,000.

Now, we can fill the ground and make a decent atmosphere for a change. Come on City - you've done the first bit with the tickets - now go and buy 45,000 bananas off EBay!

This match seems quite close to selling out on the planner, so I wonder if they will open the away end or put a giant 'SAY NO TO RACISM' banner over it?
