How many season ticket holders?

[Project]

I think if City stick to the currently published criteria, they will end up with unsold tickets.

They're assuming that nearly all seasoncard holdrers will want a ticket, which is not going to be the case. And they are then allowing only 4 days for other fans - citycard holders with a few hundred points presumably to buy a ticket for a game in London.

Completely agree. They have spread the dates out far too much. Even for SC holders with lower points - they can't buy or be sure of a ticket until 5 days before.

Considering we have 35k SC holders I think they are completely overestimating demand.

I hope so, then I will get one and so will my son!

There will be NO unsold tickets, guaranteed.

Does anyone know the rough breakdown of how many season card holders are in each of the loyalty point categories?

There are 16 days of sale for the semi-final and just over 30k tickets. Does this mean the club are aiming to shift just less than 2k per day. If so, there must be e.g 10k with more than 3750 points? Or am I being too simplistic in trying to answer my own question?

I guess I'm just thinking ahead to the final after we stuff the rags!

Yeah I think we will sell out no problem, but I think the weighting is a bit off. You don't need two weeks of sales to get through all of the season ticket holders. It's like they expect every single SC holder to get a ticket. I don't think that will happen.

Scooby that is a good point, the way I read it is, I want 3 tickets for wembley, I have 4450 points, my 2 mates have 3970 and 4020. This means I can buy 4000+ ticket a day before my mate who has less than that. It works for me but I do fear that people will take the piss with this system. They are saying you can buy 6 tickets and only 50% need to have the correct points( as long as all over 3000 )
Surely thats open to abuse?

Not sure I would call it "abuse".

What it will encourage is lots of small groups of mates to behave in the way that supporters clubs are often accused of:
pooling tickets so that those with high loyalty points obtain tickets which are then "redistributed" to those with much lower points.

each team has been given 32k tickets. If city have 36k season ticket holders then there are going to be some unhappy people.

My father in law who i go with has to buy this ticket on a different day to me so that surely means we wont be sat together?

Its a mess city!

I know it’s a bit off subject, but can anyone tell me what the points you get for each year you have a S/T.
My m8 and me both S/t holders for years – I know we got a chunk when we moved to the COMS (can anyone tell me how many we got) - and how many we get each year we renew... I have just over 5k (I have been to a fare few aways and cups) but my m8 says he has been told he only has just over 3k – (don’t go to many extra games) Thanks

I think there will be between 5 - 8,000 tickets remaining for city card holders, AFTER all season card holders have had theirs. There are too many things going against the older age city fan (old main standers) journey, kick-off time, prices ect for them to bother.

We will sell out though but it will be lots of mad loonies like you see on the nearby Euro trips.

Should be a great weekend!!!

That's assuming every single ST holder will want to take up their option on a ticket. Realistically that's not going to be the case and the allocation we have now should cater for the ST holders who want to go.
