Khaldoon's End of Season Review | Pt 1 (p26) | Pt 2 (p40)

If they'd have let every fan in the ground for free, they'd have made a £3m loss, by your numbers.

By the Club's numbers.

But my point is that the idea that inflation has affected City to the point where they have to raise ticket prices is an odd one. @Prestwich_Blue once made a cracking post working out a very general idea on how much we make in matchday revenue from "normal" fans rather than corporate and concluded that we could charge £10 a ticket to the people in the stands and it would have a negligible effect on revenue.

The average season ticket price from the last accounts was £880. If that was reduced to £500, the club would stand to lose around £12m in revenue. They made £80m profit last year. They could have made "only" £68m profit, still the highest profit in the history of the club and one of only 3 teams who made a profit in the league (though Brighton was due to sales).

To put it another way, City seem to believe that they need to make ALL of the money in the world. Only making SOME of the money and having a concession to fans who are the lifeblood of the club and the team (if Pep's constant comments are to be believed) is not on their radar.
 
Guys, I don't live in UK, but what's average price to attend all games at Etihad (PL / CL/ FA, Carabao, etc.), if you live in Manchester ?
 
£25 for a membership that doesn't even allow access to buy tickets..
£35 for a membership to have the chance to buy £63 tickets v Burnley. Probably more next season.
Last year the cheap cup and early CL games disappeared too.

Co-op live is £80/90 a pop and seats in the gods not cheap either.

The two have been timed immaculately..

Next will be the club opening the new stand and hotel..£300 a night knowing no bastard can get a tram home
