1321 tickets still for sale on the seat planner.
Burnley is no worse than Southampton.
Another 3pm kick off.
We’ve not had a home match for 3 weeks.
OK, we lost at PSG, but drew with Liverpool, and beat Chelsea.
As for the weather, sun and clouds, 14 degrees.
Yet, we’ve still got a 1000+ drop off in ticket sales between Southampton and Burnley.
The majority of tickets still available are priced at £50, £60, £70. With other adult tickets priced at £30-£50, depending where you sit.

If we joined the super league we’d have far far fewer fans attending games. You’re deluded if you think City fans would buy into that.
No offence mate, but I think you're the deluded one if you honestly think City fans would stop attending en masse if we joined a Super league. The majority would be signing up for season cards on the first day they became available. The price would no doubt put quite a few off, but that would be small potatoes in terms of losing revenue.
Bear in mind that it wouldn't necessarily be City fans attending. Every club linked to the Super league knows that football tourists / corporates / hospitality types would fill grounds at every game. It happens with the CL, so why would it be any different in a Super League?
City have been targeting the wealthier type of supporter for years, and we've seen a move away from trying to please traditional (low spending) fans. The Super League is the future - Don't kid yourself that City weren't interested, they'd be fools not to be. The advertising revenue alone would blow the PL out of the water. The richest clubs in Europe all want in. It will happen soon.

But they won't charge £25 so that argument is pointless.I don't believe that. City fans are like any other set of fans. You charge £50 and people wont come. You charge £25 and they will.
We need a bigger stand to build our fanbase. Chicken and egg. However, I don't believe it will ever happen now. City missed the boat.

City were definitely interested. But I don’t know a single fan who was though. Nobody I know would attend European Super League, I definitely wouldn’t.No offence mate, but I think you're the deluded one if you honestly think City fans would stop attending en masse if we joined a Super league.

we're in the middle of a pandemic and the club treated the fans like shit over the summer. The club gets the empty seats it deserves.That’s not bothered us before.
In October 2018 we got 54,094 for our Prem game with them, then played them at home in the FA Cup Fourth Round in January 2019 and got 50,121.
Those £30 tickets only cropped up in the last week of sale because they were desperately trying to shift them. Until that point they were priced between £50 & £70. The fact that the tickets Burnley returned were priced at £30 and they all sold suggests to me that had all tickets been priced at £30 from the start they would have sold. The pricing structure is bollocks!!!That's fine, all perfectly adequate reasons, but its not because tickets are too expensive.
I don't care what anyone says £30 to see the champions of England is a more than fair price.
Sorianomics.
If anyone can explain the benefits off having 1300+ seats still unsold at the prices I posted above, opposed to 1300+ seats sold at sensible prices, feel free.

I agree but if we can't sell Hundreds of £30 tickets in a week, there isn't a chance we spend the best part of £100m on an extention.Those £30 tickets only cropped up in the last week of sale because they were desperately trying to shift them.
