Liverpool at Home... FROM £57

Now don't laugh at me but I have a medical condition, Raynards Phenomenon. This makes me suffer terrible cold hands and feet at the slightest temperature drop. Bear with me.
I had a season ticket for the Alan Ball era and subsequent relegations there after. A young family coupled with the oblivious derailment caused me to give up my short lived season ticket. A long time has passed since and my daughter has grown up a fan and we occasionally attend games when her friend gives up her season ticket when not able to go.

My point is, because of my medical condition, I would love to pick games for us both at the beginning and end of yeh season when the weather doesn't affect me.

But with prices like these I'm only going to gravitate to the local pub, which shows everyone of our games.
I want to go but feel it's being made not impossible but unreasonable

Don't agree with the £57 either but I do think we need a little balance on the thread

Well said, pal. Some on here would be happier paying a tenner a ticket while saying "Looks like Scunny again next season"

Some people don't think they should be paying more to watch the Champions than watching the shite served up by Stuart Pearce's team a few years ago.

Not everyone can afford a season ticket. £35 for a 'Cityzen' membership, then a minimum of £57 for a Liverpool ticket is fucking obscene. Regardless of the players we have on show.
City know that for the big Premiership games where the visitors will bring 3,000, there are only a few thousand match day tickets to shift, but these games should be available to all City fans.

They were great times, we shouldnt look down on those years.

Great times now too, but for a lot of our core support they're being pushed into becoming an armchair supporter. For most it'll still be great watching us win things on the TV but I don't understand how any blue can't see that people are being pushed away from the club because of the pricing policies.


And how that isnt a big concern to everyone.
 
Do you think they will listen to us on this forum?(we know they read Blue Moon)

They, as in. Sheikh Mansour, Khaldoon Al Mubarak(remember all the end of season videos and his words about the club and the fans), Ferran Soriano(who I think is pushing the Barca mantra of tickets prices, etc, at City), and all the beautiful people at City, suited and booted, with their laptops and iPads, trying to out do each other and impress the Boardroom.

Not a chance.

We are now on the way to becoming a Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, etc on and off the pitch. Those promises when this journey first began are starting to fade.

The sad thing is, when you see the pictures from today that I will post tomorrow, it's hard not to feel proud of this club, Sheikh Mansour, and the people who run this club. Unfortunately the pictures don't tell the whole story anymore.

how does that have any relation to now or prices ??/ as has been said we dont need or have to charge high prices. Suucess shouldn't mean higher prices look at bayern there season tickets are 110 quid they are pretty successful. you must agree 57 quid is a rip off.

if you dont think this is having a negative effect go to a local pub when we play, full of fans that used to go, just like united
 
Minimum wage £6.31, or £47.33 per day.

Ticket to see a game in the North West of England, which has one of the largest % of people employed on the minimum wage....from £57 (probably more like £63+).

I don't think that I have to say anymore really?!


If we are going to charge £35 for membership schemes as well, then it becomes a real joke.

How about £35 for membership, but this gets £5 off the price of a matchday ticket? Thats what even Chelsea do, who if you cut through all the bullshit actually charged less for most seats than we did last season (other than the 'prime' seats).

I was hoping to get to 3 or four games this year, but it's not looking likely now :(

It's our club though. Most of this club's supporters are the most loyal, longstanding part of MCFC. When they are priced out, which you are passing off as 'the price of champions', when does it stop being 'our club'?

Watching on TV for those who have long attended, and no longer can because of the clubs hefty pricing and no other reason, it will be raw. The club that is a huge part of a lot of people's lives is slowly being taken away from those who helped make it what it is today. We may be Champions, but that will be little consolation for some supporter's who will lose a huge part of their life when they are no longer able to attend.


At the end of the day, whether you are paying for League 2 football, or Premier League top 4 football... £60 for 90 minutes of watching a sack of air being kicked is ludicrous. Especially with inflation compared.

You reckon £63 ? I all raise you £67 as they always quote north stand prices when using tickets from
