Get the thread title amended!

Interesting wording though. Have they ever been referred to as 'general admission season tickets' before?

My guess is it's probably to exclude the the most expensive seats. The hospitality/corporate seats will go up.

The people that buy those have enough money to not give a single fuck if their £40k annual ticket costs are now £44k(the numbers are an example plucked from thin air)

Yep. I eventually found some at £61 / £33... but still too much for him.... so that's an 8 year old, who thought he was going watching city, pissed off and potentially losing interest

Same for my lad and 5 yr old grandson. Looked at the minimum price of £61 and thought fuck that.
 
Obviously dialogue still ongoing between CM Reps and the club, but this just leaves us in the same position as we were 12 months ago. Still nothing solved on:-

- Agency tickets, viagogo and away fans in home areas
- Flexi Gold Charge
- ST availability, especially with 8k new seats to fill
- Empty seats for "lesser" games at current pricing levels - could be a mess with extra seats

Don't give up the fight all

Well done CM. The wording on "general admission" season tickets looks like Flexi-Gold charge could change

I read GA as Non-Hospitality - I suppose that includes Flexi-Gold Memberships (you can't call them anything else as FlexiGold is NOT a ticket for anything)

Great news. Well done to all those that have been pushing for it behind the scenes.

The freeze itself is good, but the change in stance is the better news. perhaps a realisation that they've pushed the core fans too far and this is a first step towards getting them back on board. Or it could just be a one-off and they'll be back to screwing us as hard as possible in 12 months. Either way, good news.

I hope this is Mansour and Khaldoon telling Soriano to sort it, but in a way that he doesn't lose face, as I suggested earlier. But I am a hopeless optimist at heart ;)

Keep up the pressure. This should just be a first step. By all means celebrate victory in a battle, but the war needs to continue.
 
Fantastic work from all concerned, City Matters and all of the fan groups who organised the protest, but most of all to the blues who protested, who made their voices too loud for the club to ignore.

It's the least the club could've done though. So while we should take this for the win that it it patently is, given the intransigence of the club over the last few years, it's only a start and there's so much more we need to do. General Admission (single match ticket) prices need to come down, not just freeze, and the club are still not committing to reintroducing new full season tickets.

My mistake, ignored after seeing general admission. That's a start and well done all. Hopefully it isn't drop a bit of good news before shitting on us more.

Yep. Still plenty of questions that we all need answers too. It's a welcome start though, but that's all it is. I can see the focus shifting towards match day pricing now, amongst other things
 
Whilst City have frozen ST numbers for the last few years, has anyone seen the split between ST holders and home capacity of all the big PL clubs? all I know is the dippers have a comparitively low count at klanfield but I have no idea the sitation at arse, spuds, rags etc versus us which might give a clue to city's stratgey approach to S/T holders going forwards
