Best view is in the gods
I agree. I've sat/stood at the front of level 5 for all our Wembley trips apart from the Stoke Final & the Rags CS when I was in Level 1 each time. Never again. No comparison in my opinion - Level 5 for me all day long. Plus it's cheaper.

Those who aren't paying and going on a freebie have fucking no right to criticise anybody who's forking out, what for most of us, is a weeks wages for ticket travel and food and drink, let alone those who cant afford it.
Fuck the scouse loving media and their lies and half truths. Perhaps they'd like to fork out 150 quid for one of those seats, but I think we all know the answer to that one.

A few years ago we went to their place in the FA Cup and had about 1/3 of the entire attendance that day.
There were 23800, in the Stadium, 6500, City fans, most were either pissed or coked.
Ditto. Your either loaded buying your kid an adult seat or methinks you will squeeze two on to one seat which won’t be much fun for anyone either side of you or in frontMe and my young son are on row 2. Hope we aren’t behind you... :-)

There are always empty seats in level 2 so no big deal if they don’t sell. Club may sell em via an agency.
I think that is more than likely what will happen.
Travelled down for original West Ham game with my young nephew, spent 4 nights in Manchester. Spent in the region of £1000 I reckon to let the wee man support his team. After seeing his disappointment when game was postponed decided to get tickets for final to surprise him so will shell out same again next weekend.The pricing of football is shocking at times and the powers that be don’t realise or care that on top of ticket prices many fans travel huge distances in order to support their team at massive cost. All I can say is City better win85% of seats available are in level two, wish the media would realise that we have to pay for our tickets, travel, eat / drink, we aren't there on a freebie. And as for Villa fans banging on about empty seats I am not sure whether they are more delusional, hypocritical or both

The media, other fans, and even our own boardroom, still don’t seem to understand that we are a large fanbase of predominately lower income people.85% of seats available are in level two, wish the media would realise that we have to pay for our tickets, travel, eat / drink, we aren't there on a freebie. And as for Villa fans banging on about empty seats I am not sure whether they are more delusional, hypocritical or both
Unlike the Rags and Cultists, London clubs, even clubs like Villa who are the biggest in their region therefore will have the posh areas of their city and surrounding areas predominantly being fans of their clubs; we don’t particularly have this.
My mate’s a gardener around Bowdon and Hale and he says every one of his customers is a United fan. My Dad does a fair bit of work (joiner) round there too and he says most of his customers are United fans. Many of them go to United.
We’ve got shit loads of fans, our historical attendances show this. And if priced right we’d fill around 62-65,000 at the Etihad if we struck the balance right across the ground and had a lower percentage of seasoncard holders to individual matchday tickets and far more £350-500 tickets in all areas. Unfortunately we’ve got tens of thousands of Blues who don’t go to games, either regularly or at all.
We always struggle to sell out these most expensive tickets at Wembley. Even in the first few visits last decade where we’d sell out the first and top tier in days yet come the day, the strip of the middle tier at our end of the stadium was exclusively fans of the other team. We’d never take up Club Wembley and still don’t now it’s open to anyone.
We’ve almost sold out our 4,499 allocation at SheffWeds, a game three days after this Wembley trip, and it wouldn’t surprise me if many of these are people who cannot afford Wembley.
