North Stand expansion - seating, ticketing etc

It literally takes 30 seconds to set someone up and transfer the ticket, if they are already set up its a 10 second job, the only thing the other person has to do is click download.

What if they don't have a supporter number? Then it's a PITA.

Then that adds another 30 second for them to sign up for one.

God I hope you're right. Sometimes I get called away on the eve of a game and they have to go empty.
And yes - I'm a foc luddite!, but I'm not alone.

Yes Danny Wilson said at the last OSc meeting they there’s too clicks / screens involved in transferring tickets and they are trying to simplify it

I’ve been fined £60 for the team for Wednesday night, plus the £6 ticket fee. I only went from Victoria to the Etihad and thought if swiped on and off correctly.

Bad pal - the transport infrastructure is a joke
Residents parking on industrial estate and near a cemetery - really !
It just forces people to park in residential areas outside the zone and walk and get soaked or pay and get stuck in a carpark or traffic jam
Madrid last year ( I accept it went to penalties ) I missed the last train and had to catch an airport one and get a taxi
Public transport ( trains and trams ) unfit for purpose

City aren’t interested in our fans loyalty anymore, it’s all about the money…
They value tourists more with wads of cash to spend.
All smoke and mirrors now, fans forum and that. All an illusion of being inclusive.
It’s who you know to get certain tickets, VIP lanes….

They just value the money. It’s not tourists vs Mancs. It’s more money vs less money (whoever that may be).

Putting aside the 'membership fee', FG is a great option for a fan and the club -:

FAN -: Gets the opporunity
to buy a ticket for as many games as he/she wants at a price lower than matchday price.

When that purchase option is not taken up, anotherfan can buy/use it under the same conditions.

CLUB -: Upfront membership fee. Ticket cascades down/across a potentially larger pool of available fans. A larger pool of fans having an opportunity to attend games.

Under the increased capacity the club could have a 'pool' of 75000 (say) fans for 62000 tickets.

If the club could address the primary price of tickets,along with the FG 'Membership fee, and make ALL agency tickets available under the FG scheme, the fan 'pool' could grow exponentially and absorb all the extra tickets and give even more fans the opportunity to attend more regularly.

The Sheikh has writen to all City fans declaring his appreciation of our loyalty and value.

Khaldoon has reiterated it on many occasions.

Pep & the team are on record stating their appreciation of our support home, away and abroad.

Its time now, with (the rags fans revolting), to stop running this part of the club by algorithm, and put in place affordable,logical pricing policies to retain our existing,loyal support, and attract and keep the next generation.

PS....Shift the away fans down to the shit wet seats in ESL110/111 & SSL113,
shit views,shit acoustics.

Make all SSL3/2 & most of SSL1 all City and listen to the racket.

Make an oyld man happy for Xmas.....I dare you !!

They could well be begging local fans to attend next season , the tourists and glory hunters will soon disappear when the trophies dry up .

City would need to reduce ticket prices for many / possibly all if support dried up. The ticket agency tickets need to go but if local fans can’t be arsed going and Blues from further away want to see us play, the more the merrier.

When it comes to early round FA Cup games played on a weekend, plenty of locals tend to turn up as they’re games that the club usually get right on ticket pricing. The challenge is getting that many locals to turn up for midweek games, especially in the CL. That’s when the tourists tend to take up a fair bit of the slack. I don’t think that’s always just down to pricing but it is a factor. I think some people are more inclined to take the whole family to those weekend FA Cup games than they are for the midweek CL games, even if the prices were made as cheap at the CL games.
