293 left. Looks like about half of them are because a couple of rows at the back have been released.

This one has mystified me. Several hundred seats were put on sale this morning for the back two rows only. Why were these held back?

 

[Didsbury Dave]

Really ! I mean really !! Oh Dids, come on, have I had a whoosh moment, I have haven't I

Honestly, the last time I remember trouble with our fans and the scousers was the last season at Maine Road and it was our fans who were looking for it. No whoosh involved here.

Cheers pal, I've emailed supporter services, I'll see what they come up with.
Thanks for responding to my post.

Actually mate, I’ve just seen someone ask the same question on Twitter and they confirmed people with bookings will be contacted by email nearer the time.

Thanks once again pal.
It's good to have someone helping answer my question, particularly as I don't do Twitter.

I don’t think I’d describe City fans as civilised. The way people bang on about Liverpool fans… we have more arrests than they do every single year.

City United Birmingham Leeds and Cardiff are often the Top5 or are definitely in the Top10 when it comes to fan arrests every season.

I always think Liverpool’s away support at the Etihad seems like a soft group of shirt wearing mixed age fans. I think we have more nutters than they do.

Everytime we play at Wembley we get a huge thread on here moaning about the uncivilized behaviour of our fans for good measure too.

No problem mate. I get bored at work and often spend half an hour amusing myself reading some of the stupid questions people are asking on the City Twitter page.

Not that yours was a stupid question I hasten to add.

Probably been asked so apologies but any parking options? I'm driving there and back on the day rather than bus/coach/train so any tips would be mega please!

 

[fathellensbellend]

would be good to see the official seat counters take on extra responsibility and establish how many parking spaces are empty in Leicester and every other away ground, maybe liase with NCP, and justpark and keep us all updated, also travel with regard to trains, how full are trains going to be too and from matches, including the tube for London games would be good (estimates would be accepted for the underground), in fact anywhere where there is an empty seat or space, we need to own it.

I wouldn't go off police figures of arrests as a yard stick who has the worst fans just look at how many Liverpool fans were arrested when the City bus was attacked. Also seen plenty of trouble started by Liverpool fans at Wembley against us.

Saying that we have plenty of idiots following City and have probably seen more City fans attacked by fellow so called City fans than by any other club supporters.

This is where I have an issue. I've done the Wembley visits and never seen City fans looking for trouble. I have experienced rags, scouse and a lone villa knobhead causing trouble, (directly at me) The rags were by far the worst but the dipper shite weren't far behind. I know what others, @Didsbury Dave for one say and I respect their opinions, but it seems I go on a different day to everyone else.
