North Stand expansion - seating, ticketing etc

[blue44]

The club keep making terrible decisions (for fans) so it's perfectly acceptable for fans to call them out. Just in recent months they've:

- Increased SC prices again

I agree with you entirely,but sc prices in recent months ?
we had to renew in March this year for the current season, 8 months ago ,thats not recently.
They're so out of touch with the local fanbase.

what they gonna do for next season,renew by Feb 2025 for the 2025-26 season

The sooner the club gets the money into their bank account, the faster in makes interest and more money for the club.

That was good old PJS plan !

10,000 fans who were regulars when Maine Road closed had stopped going to City five years later.....10,000 !!

10,000 are you sure? The final capacity at Maine Road was just under 35,000 IIRC and I'm fairly sure we averaged around 32,000 in our final season there.
Did we really only average 22,000 five years later? It may have dropped like a stone under Pearce but soon recovered when Sven came in.
Or are you saying 10,000 stopped going and we miraculously replaced them, and gained additional supporters as well?

10000 ÷ 5 = 2000 pa.

These were replaced and added to, but over that period 10000 Maine Rd season ticket holders didn't renew for what ever reason.

The OSC are working behind the scenes on behalf of 'their' members

Are they? Unless your directly involved you wouldn’t know it. City matters, 1894 and the food bank seem to be much more visible and more representative of our wider support.

Ofcourse people in the OSC will disagree with that, but that’s my perception. On the big issues you rarely hear anything and I sense a reluctance to challenge the club at times.

You don’t need to go through the media if you’ve got regular direct contact with City’s Directors / Senior Management. For example, Sir Kevin’s help with resolving the disabled parking charges shambles.

It’s no always the head honchos either. I saw a tweet on X responding to an OSC member saying we’ve listened to your concerns about the early date Champs League payments are being taken and they put back the collection date. No doubt other reps on City Matters Reps had an input.

Fair enough. It might be good to advertise or show some of these things to city fans in general. Most people dont see or hear about any of this. More visibility can’t hurt.

That’s part of why I think the 1894 group have become so influential. They publicly speak up for the fans a lot

Its a huge fuck up this season ticket situation.
Said it before about our owners, where as they have made my dreams come true i know im just a bi-product, deep down i know they dont give a fuck about me

I take my kids on my uncles season ticket (next to mine) as he lives in spain, if anything happens to his ticket then what? My plan was to buy one maybr 2 tickets and relocate, now thats not going to be an option do i just not take them?
