Does anyone know when the Liverpool game becomes available to City card holders as I couldn't see anything on the website? Managed to wangle some flights to UK for that week but knowing my luck it will be sold out...

There are no city cards this year mate, it's either cityzens or nothing. Cityzens sale start on Monday, with required points decreasing each day. General sale tickets not announced, think they are expecting to sell out but at that price I wouldn't be too surprised if they didnt.

ok thanks mate I didn't realise that was the case...More research for me to do then :-/
 
Any info on numbers how reduced Etihad will be until expansion finished?

Instead of circa 47.500 it will be what?

And when is the earliest when in theory it could be in full capacity around 55.000? Start of 15-16 season or maybe late in 14-15 season?

In CL games its usually goes with smaller capacity, so that would mean even smaller attendances because of expansion work and probably bigger/more inetrest from fans for less space, so can imagine some unreal prices for better CL games...
 
Cheadle Hume blue I, don't have the disposable income to pay£900.00 in 1"hit" I've taken advantage of the fantastic 0% deal with 4equal payments of£225:00 every couple of months I do feel for the genuine fans who can't afford the prices:-)

According to a SSN report someone posted the other day, we're going to lose just over 1,000 seats this season. Work was expected to be complete for the start of next season, but apparently they're now (only slightly) behind schedule, so seriously doubt there'll be increased capacity anytime soon, unless these 3 extra rows at the front (in which you're going to be pretty much underground) get finished early.

You're right about the smaller CL capacities; with 36,000 STs, corporate, reduced CL capacity, 1,000 seats missing AND away allocation, could possibly only be a few thousand tickets on sale for CL nights.
 
what I would like to know is,what do the club expect the average guy/girl to spend ultimately to watch a game?1/4 of his/her wages?1/2 half his/her wages?(and I am including travel, food and beer also the odd treat in the shop)
would a premier footballer pay a 1/4 of his wages to watch a game? I doubt it....me personally.I have sacked all the cup schemes, so they would have got more from me by leaving prices as they were,now,,in effect they are gonna lose money from me and others who have done the same,,we still won't sell out for the league cup and some fa cup games,because its the hardcore mostly who attend these games..,

I hope the club has a rethink on this one. Individual match ticket prices between thirty and forty pounds is seen as too much for some but would be much better than this. Come on City.

I'd be more than happy with that. £30 for most games, £35 for Everton, Spurs, Newcastle etc, £40 for Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Rags.

Nye on £60 for a Starting price (and rising) however is utterly obscene.
 
A £10 reduction on blue member tickets would cost the club just over £2million over the season. Does the club see this as money they can't afford to lose? I think it is just a ploy to get more people to take a season ticket so they can extend both ends. I reckon we will see quite a few games with empty seats later on this season at this rate.

TBH I expected it, hopefully though for the less desirable league games the price will be less than it was for the corresponding fixture last year.

You not seen the Stoke prices then! 57% increase on the corresponding fixture, 6 months ago!

Another point I think us worth making is that there is a bit of a myth about us filling a 60k capacity stadium. Just because we have seven thousand on a waiting list doesnt mean these are new supporters. They are generally part of the 48k we get every home game including blue members like me so I will be a season ticket holder rather than a member and I can't see another 12000 brand new fans suddenly appearing at those prices ! We were only just selling out most games last year. I have been to around 1000 games in 45 years but quite frankly I might not now go to any based on these obscene prices and I can afford it !
 
Its all very well and good moaning and swiping at each other about ticket prices my season ticket has gone up to 630 in the south stand, i dont earn anywhere near a living wage under 13000 its all about sacrifices for me , any spare cash i have in the year goes towards putting away for the following seasons seasoncard, cup games, travel on the supporters coach so forth.
Not everyone is in a position to do this i know, but i hardly believe anyone from within the club is going to trawl through 22 pages of it on bluemoon forum, any displeasure about the rising cost of matches really needs to be directed to the club face to face or over the phone , email, letter,
Because i imagine to them as long as people keep buying tickets at these prices and the demand is there it looks like there isnt as many unhappy fans as we find on here.

Hi does anyone know if the Stoke game tickets will go on general sale as I am hoping to go to it, because I heard that this season's tickets do not go on general sale.Do they or not?

The club hasn't announced how much tickets for the Stoke game will cost yet nor when they will become available. I'd expect that to be reveled in a week or so, but from my understanding, you can only buy tickets for league games if you are a Cityzen member. That membership costs £35 plus the price of the 1st game you are attending. PL tickets might go on general sale if there are any left with a couple days to spare, but i highly doubt it.

Domestic cup games usually go on General sale earlier and you will probably still get to pay on the night for one of those games.

I'm hoping to be over for the Stoke game as well. Watching the OS like a hawk at the moment.
 
Tickets for the Stoke game have been announced already:

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Tickets-and-Travel/2014/July/City-v-Stoke-City-30-August-ticket-information" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Tickets-and- ... nformation</a>

£44 is the cheapest you'll get as an adult, which will be in the Family Stand.

Everywhere else will be circa £55.

Disgrace.

stoke will bring 200 / 300 max so will have so shift 8 / 9k for this, hopefully it won't sell out and show whatever Muppet is in charge of setting ticket prices how out of touch they are..

But how can they buy a season ticket when they are all sold out?

They could have got there name on the waiting list that has been up and running for quite a while or just paid for the odd match if they can't afford it or can't travel for every match.
Either way, watch 19 matches by an S/T or 1, 2, 3, 4 etc etc for cherry picking their matches.
Viva le choice.
Harsh but true.
