Get to the Etihad for the 2nd leg!

Take a

Of course they will because not everyone will be able to find the £500 plus it will cost to get there and pay for a ticket.

Take a chance and buy your flight now about £30

Everyone talks about the £60 tickets. It's not obligatory to buy a ticket in the most expensive part of the ground. £40 behind the goal. Do people think £40 is too expensive? I know not everyone can afford it but £40 for a Champions League quarter final is absolutely fine by me.
Christ, I paid £40 to go to Birmingham City away in 2004!

Yea, this is a similar impression I get quite often from match attenders.... Money to burn springs to mind.
As long as they can afford it fuck everyone else.

I'm happy to pay for my ST, i can just about afford it.
But I rarely ever attend aways these days now and gave up CL home games awhile back due to the piss poor tourist atmosphere and pricing.

I usually attend the matches at the minihad now... They are usually free for ST holders, or around a fee quid and the football is decent level to watch.
Plus no tourist cunts on their selfies

If it makes Richie Rich feel he's the best city fan in the world because he can attend then fair enough... I'm happy watching the Academy lads develop and back my club that way.

I agree with all of that, get more enjoyment watching the young lads this season than the first team.

I dont have a season ticket or a membership and yet I got a personally addressed fancy flier through the post try to get me to buy a ticket. I dont see how they have got anything over anybody.

That was before tonight's result though...

I dont think its a case of not caring about those priced out, but rather just trying not to criticise the club. After all, they have give us so much. Good point about the minihad though, defo gonna watch more eds/u18s/womens games next year

Good for you. Unfortunately the money thing is what it is. Tbf when i had a bit more i was no happier...now i have enough to eat & I'm fairly satisfied. Great you get to the academy...now you can encourage the stars of the future. I'm sure the club value your support their. Don't begrudge people with money though matey...someone has to earn it. My experience? More money....more problems. Enjoy Saturday....up the blues!

Need to get the south stand rocking and hope it carries around the ground. Time to make the Etihad a cauldron.

If Pb doesn't like it he doesn't like it. He doesn't have to have the Spanish Inquisition. Thousands of ST don't go to this and I'm sure some can afford it. They just mustn't be taken by it.

I like the football but I don't like the booing, no drink, tourists, selfies etc. I can see why people don't like it.

Yeah but really it not as bad as some say it is, tourist and selfies you get in the premier league too , and really grown adults should not let something like that worry them , my own son takes selfies it the modern age, I don't do it myself.
You had a load of Belgian tourist away at arsenal in the league which I thought was bad , so it's not just a champs league thing.
I like a drink as much as the next man/woman but surely we can go without an alcoholic beverage for 2/3 hours, the beer is usually shit anyway.
I lot of the problems people don't like about the CL you also get in the Prem , that's what I don't understand

 

[ninjamonkey]

Do you know of anyone that has been prepared to pay £70+ for the away leg, but not happy to pay £40 for the home leg?

I suspect most at the game tonight will be there next week.

That's why i used the example of the Fa cup semi finals we've been in over the last few seasons and not tonights match. those were not finals either so the "it's a one off" reason isn't valid there yet nobody even questioned those prices when we played United and Chelsea
