You don't normally get 8k fans at home never mind travelling to gods own city, so some maybe abit exciteable, all I'm saying is we don't want any headlines of fighting etc.

I bought a seat this morning. Block 125. £15 for seasoncard holders. Port Vale's announcement about Level 1 is misleading. All of Level 1 South Stand was onsale to City (which means Vale have about 7,500 seats).

Now you do know @Marvin that in 125 you have to be on your best behaviour don't you? That's 'my' block and I am very particular about who sits there you know!! ;-) :-)


Seriously, do you sing and shout because we need singers and shouters in 125!! Welcome to the best part of the stadium. :-)

That's very impressive. Shows the potential of the club. I am a little surprised that you have sold out though because all the communication said you had up to 8,000 seats and you were at 6,700 last night. Perhaps the 'missing' tickets are allocated to sponsors, players etc. You would have thought that if your allocation is 8,000 and the sales stood at 6,700, then there would still be tickets for sale.

I always thought SS Level 3 and Level 2 capacity was 7500 or thereabouts.

Hope something gets sorted.

O.l. there are quite a few unhappy Vale fans still wanting tickets as they haven't hit general sale yet and we have sold out (shifted 1300 in 4 hours, something not right there but...). Seriously though as we have asked for more tickets and will probably be told no, from what I've read, is there a block (area) close to the away allocation that fans could buy tickets for. Just not fair on the fans that don't have season tickets.
Thanks for any help...

The most likely blocks would have been the blocks that City use for away fans in Level 1 but they already have City fans in them (our singing section is in them). They are blocks 113 and 114.

In the Champions League games, away fans often get a block of what they call premium seats which is on Level 2 above the half-way line. The problem would be that the game has been onsale for home fans for some time.

The sales which you have posted don't seem to square with the tickets allocated to Vale so I think you might find that Vale audit their remaining seats and then put the remaining seats on sale.

The top picture is the overall picture for City at the moment, and the image below is the seats of one block (114) in the away end, and you can see that it's nearly sold out.

I doubt City regard this as a high-risk game so if they can accommodate more Vale fans, I am sure they will try but I don't think there are any big blocks of spare seats. I'm sure it will become clear over 48 hours.

Wow you've got some brass neck you, 8k tickets and still not happy, for them that don't have season tickets TOUGH.
 
Not cheap but if anyone wants to experience the Citizens Corporate for the day with 3 course meal, it’s £119 inc vat. Might be a decent present for someone!

Amazing, they get around 4-5000 for home league games, and suddenly 8000+ want to watch City.

It happens. During the 1965-66 season, City (when top of the Second Division) were getting crowds of around 25,000 for League matches yet sold out 63,034 for an FA Cup match against Everton. A week later a home match against Plymouth attracted a crowd of 24,087.

On the Vale forum loads are saying they have already bought tickets in the home end? Surly they need to have previous purchase history? Even our ticket office aren’t that stupid? It will be the Celtic game all over again!
