Open Letter on Season Tickets and Pricing | Club announce price freeze on "general admission season tickets & PL match tickets" for next season (p163)

Flexi gold should be fucked off and just make it a real season ticket, no added fees, get some younger guys and girls on the ladder and get that new stand filled up with 8000 STs

Exactly this.

I would say that ship has sailed, but it was never built.
 
Interesting call from a Spirit of Shankly supporter on Talkshite.
Seemed a good bloke. Liverpool have frozen prices for next season, as have a couple of others.
He also talked of the very low number of Season tickets available asapecentage at Anfield. No waiting list for season tickets.
The startling stat was that there are 11000 corporate tickets.
They also have tickets available on the Boehly site at 1600 quid for the final game of the season.
 
Less than 50% of Anfield is made up of season tickets. I think we have 40,000 season tickets which is about 77%.

Liverpool are getting a lot of credit for freezing prices but having such a low percentage of season tickets is ridiculous and will be used by our club to justify not selling new season tickets despite any capacity increase.

Nobody knows how many season ticket holders we have got. The club want say. It"s always been an inaccurate guess. What we do know is season ticket holders are going down in numbers.

Ours is 36.000 isn't it ?

I think it's really hard to compare our support to the likes of Liverpool.

They have a huge global fanbase. You could argue that their club has been more accommodating about this because they could literally sack all season cards and still fill Anfield with tourists and whoppers from around the world at £60/£70 per ticket.

City are mental because we don't have anything like that many supporters. It's the legacy fans bearing the weight of these price hikes and it can't last. Eventually, we're all going to reach the point where it's no longer financially viable. The club just needs to hope they've grown the fanbase enough to pick up the slack when that happens (and that the new fans they attract stick around when Guardiola leaves and we're not as successful).
 
Ours is 36.000 isn't it ?
I think it was 36k plus 4K regulars in corporate at its peak before the lockdowns. It will be lower now.

Approx 3,500 extra flexi-golds will be added (around the ground) when the expanded North Stand opens for its first full season (2026). We don’t know if extra half season flexi golds will be available from January 2025, City won’t commit to a firmed up timetable for opening the new stand until the very complicated (current) roof works are completed.

See @NJMCFC184 M's response, that is about a Twitter (X) posting but if you look on here there are plenty of folk who don't appear to like old people going to the games. But I don't want to divert the thread. Sorry, I shouldn't have let my thoughts intrude on this thread. :-)
Ignore them, they don't speak for the majority.
 
Had an email asking me to register my interest in 2025 / 26 seasonal hospitality, I wonder how many agencies have had the same email!!
I have had a SC for decades, never once been in our hospitality so do they want me to upgrade which will not only generate more money for them from me but leaves a SC free for them to charge £75 a game. Is it a targeted email to certain sections of the ground or is it an email that has been sent to everyone on their email database?

I got an email as well. What a waste of an email.
 
They’ve priced out most of their ‘core fan base’ and most scousers can’t actually attend games.
Their season tickets are not that badly priced. None are as expensive as mine at £930. And mine isn’t the most expensive normal season ticket at City.

And their matchday ticket prices are much more reasonably priced with a much wider range of prices than ours.

IMG_9920.jpegFor adults their prices range from £9-£61.
On Saturday against Newcastle, our prices ranged from £71-£88. Our cheapest adult ticket is more expensive than their most expensive PL ticket.

Their children’s prices are almost exclusively £9 (apart from the new AF second tier where it’s still only £30).
On Saturday our children’s prices were £43-£58.


People with an ‘L’ postcode can buy matchday tickets for as little as £9 and they can get tickets before they go on sale to anyone else.



Liverpool look after their core and local fans much better than City do. They’d have backed their fans over the Istanbul post-CL final car park situation n’all, while City didn’t say a Dicky Bird. They put City to shame when it comes to having their fans backs to be honest.

Interesting that their over 65 season ticket reduction seems a lot less than ours. Hope this doesn't become the only way we emulate their pricing

This is an excellent post. Really helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do that.

Liverpool have one of the smallest % of season ticket holders in the Premier League. If I remember correctly no more than 30%. Not sure thats looking after their core fans.
