does there appear to be loads of napoli tkts for sale?

[nem]

Trying to by some for gf and mate on a blue membership account with 45 loyalty points and its not having any off it. Any ideas?

Just to hear that theme song at The Etihad is worth the ticket price alone.

Totally agree. "The champions!!!! du du du du.....". Right I'm off for a pint

Waited a long time for this. Can not wait!!!

I've been singing it in my head all afternoon! The Etihad draped in UEFA Champions League banners, the theme song in full flow, a mass Poznan before kick off. "City! City! City! City!"

If they are struggling to sell out, hopefully it means not many have gone for the auto-enrol scheme for CL, so I'll be a cert for that CL Final ticket!

Phone em up, or go in, the website will enforce the 60pts rule which (apparently) isn't being 100% enforced over the phone or in person.

The club are afraid of Napoli fans buying in the home end

 

[pirate]

I fear what our owners will think when we dont get over 40000

Its still an if at the moment.....

There are thousands of seats free in the Family Stand though and I just cant see that selling in a week.

I am not sure the fans give the club the backing the owners deserve when prices are kept low like this.

Where are all the thousands who were begging for Final tickets on nights like these?

you are talking shite.
and here is why.

1)the economic situation is fooking unbelievably bad and the majority of our fans are working class people. our fans are not your upper middle class glory hunters that inhabit the swamp, chelsea or arse. Spend your money now and miss out on a cup final doesnt make sense to me.
2)There is more than a week to go before the fixture.

take off the required 60 point criteria and people can buy them

Oh ffs surely it only needs to be 10/20 points with prrof of previous ticket purchase? I'll have to remember to drop by Tony Soprano accent when on the phone later then.

i cant even buy extra tickets online for family despite being a cup scheme/seasonal member with family registered. i cant get to the ground and im not phoning up to be in a queue for ages and pay a booking fee aswell as a huge phone bill


fuck up of epic proportions in the making here from city

or why the sales will be low until saturday when we are all at the ground anyway.

My thoughts exactly. I had to get anew supporter number so now I only have 50 points. I convinced 4 of my mates to get a ticket for the game yet when we came to get them you needed 60 points. Absolutely stupid!!!

Just phoned up and was told not enough points. I'm sure there are many Napoli fans that registered for a city membership (with a manchester postcode) in seasons gone by and occasionly topped up their loyalty points by attending a handfull of games over the last few seasons to be in with the chance of getting a seat in the home end at COMS should they qualify for the CL (as well as city) and be drawn in the same group.

Ah well, tis only the girlfriend.

The club may seemingly be going places but the ticket office isn't.

there will be 1000's more tickets available tommorrow when the seats of seasoncard holders who haven't been able to update their card details online or get through on the phone are released for general sale

And people who shell out £10 for blue membership will only have 25 loyalty points so not able to buy online. lets say city allow people to buy with low points if they buy from the stadium, if they live a distance and can't get to the ground what do they do ? after shelling out £10 just to be able to buy tickets i can't se them being too chuffed about ringing up and paying a booking fee on top ( even if they have time to be waiting on the phone for long periods)

I Agree with 2 as my first sentence implied.

"spend your money now and miss out on a cup final doesnt make sense to me"

What does that mean?

Personally If people(Who dont live miles away) dont go to any cup matches in the earlier rounds then I hope they do miss out on a cup final. Unfortunately it tends not to work that way!

Some City fans are a joke. Comments like "it's a disgrace that this wont be a sell out" are stupid. I mean come on it's next Wednesday, there's loads of time for the tickets to sell. Some people are so knee-jerk it's laughable!

That's lower than all Europa League games from last season. I think even with the Ticket Office being inept we'll get more than we did for any Europa Lg games!

This is yet more proof that we're simply not as big as we think we are. When our core support can't be arsed with a game like this we don't have the reserves of willing paying fans to make up the numbers. It happens time and time again

If Everton, Spurs, Newcastle were in our position they would sell out

We've waited years for a team like this and the general apathy of certain sections of our support is a disgrace
