It seemed a pretty impressive crowd to me last night and likewise v West Ham. Don't see an issue.

I don't think the club will be overly bothered if they are not sold out.

The increase in revenue is all that matters.

Last year Roma home - 37,000 Last night 50,000 I am sure the club will be delighted with that.

Watford 52000 would have been 45000 last season.

These extra seats plus the extra corporate seats will be adding £££ to the bottom line and that's all the club will be bothered about whether that is right or wrong.

My personal take is that match day tickets were ridiculously over priced last season. This season they are heading in the right direction. I still think they could maybe do a bit more for the European nights like offer a slight discount to people who have committed to the schemes like they used to.

Ok we get the message, you used to go everywhere, your a proper blue, now you like to sit in the pub watching football, you've gone down the Utd route, hope your proud of yourself. Now can you leave us alone to support our club in the right way. Thanks.

Not quite. If Juve would have taken and sold their full allocation then the game would have sold out. City fans bought the 2nd tier away allocation but didn't sell the 3rd tier.

I very much doubt that there will be "loads" of empty seats for WHU.

You need to make your mind up
You started the thread saying the prices should be lower as you would prefer to stay in the pub and spend on food and drinks rather than pay £30 to watch City
Today you tell us you want it to be cheap when you return to Blighty and want to go to a game

So you're either on the WUM or shit-stirring

Meanwhile seasoncards are great value, but clearly not to someone living abroad who comes over for the odd game, which is why you've consistently ignored those who have mentioned the cheaper seasoncards.

Perhaps City should increase seasoncard costs so that those who go to the odd game can have a cheap ticket?

...and £35 for an adult + a kid is wrong?

It's not the club you should question but the fans that didn't take advantage.

I am not blaming anyone just stating facts. as I have consistently said most of the time the club gets it spot on

"Mid season"?

They sold a few extra where the seats weren't ready for the start of the season!

Yep they started selling after first two games, which is mid season.

The tickets are singles they can't sell, and in blocks unaffected by building work from those who bought them.

Why be a sheep?

you do know that the £30 is for the season and you get £5 off the ticket price up to 6 games, so a game like west ham is £35 and £5 off means its £30 for a prem league game, NOT BAD AT ALL, but say you want to see Liverpool it might be 54 notes and 5 off its 49 to see the game, again not bad

A lot of those blues cant be bothered going sadly. They may wish to blame the club but they have all had the opportunity to get a dirt cheap season ticket. West Ham again has been competitively priced as was Juventus and tickets still remain.

It is not just a matter of whether the club needs it (but yes it does). 40 thousand supporters have committed to watching the side on a regular basis. Quite rightly they would be aggrieved if those who choose to watch matches in the pub, regularly benefit by cheap tickets on the odd occasion they fancy a game.

This.
If these fans would rather spend the ticket money on 6 pints in a pub then dont blame the club for it.

In respect of your last point I guess you have answered your own question, you prefer to go to the pub but the club would want fans who want to attend. Matter of choice, there are reasonably priced seats available if you want them
