Think they were £20 and £10 at the time. I don't think it's too bad personally and we've all been affected by the prices increases. I've got a seasoncard so I'm in the unaffected camp with this particular membership and it's hard to view it if the shoe was on the other foot.
I think a way of softening that blow would be maybe knocking a quid or so off Face Value for Cityzen members when they purchase tickets for league games.
Yeah, I remember the last time this debate was raised, someone provided a screenshot of the old City website, where citycards were 20 pound something like 10 years ago.
Assuming most people by a new shirt every season, getting the 10% soften's the blow somewhat (whether the Nike shirts are overpriced or not is a different debate).
The reality is that in an age of FFP the money has to come from somewhere.
