I didn’t go last night but as a non driver, this situation with public transport is appalling.
I would expect an apology from the club to the fans but won’t hold my breath.
You have a game finishing at 10pm yet it looks like the club with its wealth and resources is making next to nil effort to support fans to get home in a reasonable time.
Yes of course the owners have put so much money into the club and we see us (yes, City) scoring 6 in the CL but for me and I think many others, the disconnect between the club and fans is starting to offset the glory on the pitch. We did not ask Sheikh Mansour for the investment and I wouldn’t swap the last 12 years for anything but I’m sorry -that investment and ownership comes with a responsibility.
The pandemic has shown us that if the will is there almost anything can be done. There’s no reason other than not giving a shit why ticketing, customer service, transport, prices etc cannot be improved.
We are a fan base who has been through a lot and still are nowadays with the vitriolic media campaign against City and deserve a lot better.
With this team and manager- the excitement of getting a ticket and going to the game should be a glorious experience and for too many, too often, that experience is tarnished.
