Community Shield - Arsenal (N) | Sun 6th Aug - 16:00

I was involved in the biggest boycott of all time, the miners strike, and look what that got us.

I remember it well. I was on strike for 16 months, the P&O dispute in Dover 1988.

If we continue to be successful none of it will matter, because like the rags and dippers we'll sell out nearly every game due to the Johnny come latelys and tourists buying tickets.

We’ve literally become everything we took the piss out of a certain red team for in the 90s and 2000s

We as in City fans. Those games I mentioned we took less than half of the normal allocation IIRC so in theory pretty much anyone who wanted to go could have done so. I am sure someone on here will remember exactly how many we took. For many years we only took small allocations at London grounds because of ticket prices, and there have been times when we didn't sell out Liverpool and Everton. I haven't told anyone not to go to a game and you shouldn't take it personally, if you want to go then go, nobody will have any issues. Who cares what other fans think, there are plenty in the PL who don't even bring 3k to the Etihad so they can hardly moan when we only take 20k to London.

Well I don't remember them and I've been going home and away for over 40 years.
There are still posts on here saying people can't be arsed. In fact I think there was directly below yours along with many others.
I know blues who never go to the games and watch it in the pub saying they can't get tickets saying they are boycotting going to Wembley. Embarrassing.

It's the price of success.

Including winning all the trophies and being one of the best teams in the world. We have seen the greatest football ever seen. There is a bigger picture with many more reasons to be positive than negative.

I'd suggest you take a look after this morning's sales. Far more than 5,000 sold

I think you need to understand that there have hardly been any blocks made available. 'Greyed' out means they were never put on sale, not they have been sold. In fact virtually every block on the South Side of our allocation has not been released.

Trust me, I monitored sales from the start, and as if that post earlier, about 5,000 of blocks that have been available have sold.

Think you've mistaken me for somebody who cares but City only put half of the top tier on sale and they've now released more of those because the bottom tier has sold out

The demand from non season ticket holders is huge. They don't give a shit about the boycott, unfortunately

Around 17,000 sold just today.

3.5k left on the planner and 4k to be released.
