The amount we are selling, especially in 325, at this time of night is suspicious.

I'm a citizen member and have years of purchase history. I have the misfortune of living in Liverpool at the moment and have my tickets sent to my Liverpool address. Hopefully there isn't a over zealous person that cancelles my ticket and it is automated process.

There will be over 50,000 at this game , which is a good turn out , when you think a lot of peoples first wage packet after xmas is a couple of days away ,because in the real world a lot of people live to a budget , the media can take the piss out of our attendances , it just proves how desperate they have become to please their rag/dipper/arse customers. If we do make the final you can guarantee all the mourners will come out of the woodwork to snap up neutral/corporate tickets , and we will yet again take the brunt from our wonderful British press regarding our support , i know how good our core support is , we may not have the numbers of some , but our commitment is unwavering , and always has been .

Glad it's selling. Not fussed if there is the odd Everton fan here and there and they keep quite, but if there are loads and they make them selves known won't be pleased.

Most probably touts snapping them up, they should have no problem selling them on to scousers.

I've just read the "article" in The Mirror by David McDonnell regarding the attendance for the upcoming game against Everton.
The title of the article might as well be "Moneybags City in advertising tickets shocker".
The theme of the piece is that the game "isn't sold out" that Sergio Aguero, among other players has "had to plea to fans" to attend and that City have even had to take out a double page spread in the Evening News in a desperate attempt to drag fans to the game.
I'm sure Mr Mcdonnell will forgive me for not providing a link to his "article" but if he's reading this, I'd like to point one or two things out to him. Assuming if he works for the Mirror he's a Liverpool fan, or at the very least a Liverpool sympathiser.
There will be over 50,000 fans attending this match, some 10% more than attended the semi at Anfield.
City's average attendance this season will be north of 53k. That is higher than Liverpool have ever achieved in their illustrious 'istree.
You seem to be obsessed with how many seats are unsold as opposed to how many are sold. If we had a ground as small as Anfield, this game would have been sold out a few days ago, and we wouldn't need the "desperate begging" of Sergio to flog the extra 10k. You appear to be punishing City for having a bigger stadium than Liverpool, which is, frankly, bizarre.
On the subject of unsold tickets, what was the % to capacity of Liverpool's attendances during the halcyon days of the 70s and 80s? How does that compare with City's percentages now?
The Mirror, which prides itself on being a left wing paper for working people should know better than to try and take the piss out of hard working fans who in the last week of January, the week in the year where finances are at their most stetched, might have other priorities than a Capital One Cup game.
You've embarrassed yourself and your newspaper today, and I suggest you take that story down and start reporting news as oppossed to baiting fans in to clicking your article in a desperate attempt to hit your monthly site traffic targets.

If the Everton fans in our end perk up like Gladbach did, City best have the personnel to deal with it this time. I can imagine it getting nasty in places otherwise. I want them thrown out not given a makeshift away end and forcing CIty fans to move. Thankfully, it shouldn't be anywhere near me in the south stand this time.
