I've asked this question many times, and I'll ask it again!
What do the club gain from giving our away allocation to tourists and day trippers?
I get that with home games, tourists will spend more in the club shop, buy a programme and have food in the ground, which is at least a genuine incentive to have this kind of fan in the ground.
But for away games City don't benefit from any of this, so what's the point? To me they're completely stabbing their hardcore fanbase in the back, for essentially no reason!
