Priced out?

Alright Khaldoon


After his queens speech we learn all about how we have acquired more clubs and sold more academy players and the business is doing well. never ever does he mention prices rises all across the board.

As long as business is going well it's all good, not really out of touch at all.
 
And ALL this is down to the board of Manchester City FC, put the sycophancy to one side and reflect, they along with other club owners do NOT give a shit about any of us, if the form continues as it is we are going to thousands of thousands of empty seats in a 60000 plus stadium with more atmosphere on the moon. They have completely alienated local support and it appears have no understanding of our core support and their finances.

When it comes to the end of season summing up by Khaldoon put the Kleenex away and reflect on the long term bigger picture.

I would imagine there'll be questions in the club around how we'll fill all of the extra seats in the North Stand.

We struggle to sell out against every club barring the top 6-8 already.

So where will the fans come from? Especially if people are priced out / losing their passion and voice.

I've seen some good ideas in this thread and the suggestions around rebuilding our family feel and community is an essential element. There seems to be a huge disconnect at the moment.

Are the extra couple of mill we chase for the balance sheet essential?

I would add that I'm not in danger of being priced out in the near future. However, the price of everything in general does make me wince.

I got slagged off on here when I suggested the north stand expansion maybe wasn’t the best of ideas.

Hong Kongers dressed head to toe in club shop gear. Also, many of the empty seats are older fans who "don't fancy it" today due to rain/cold, I know plenty of these season ticket holders, so suggesting the fans won't be there is a big stretch, City will have plenty of data to support building new infrastructure. Want to be the best? Got to match Madrid minimum.

So when you say they "do NOT give a shit about any of us". Did they tell you this?

And when you say "they have completely alienated local support", have you surveyed locals fans to confirm that this is their view also?

I appreciate you are angry, as many are, but you can't just make generalised assumptions to back up your views.

Despite what any of us think, football has long long since been a local working class game watched by local people. It's a global financial behemoth ran by business people who want to maximise revenues at all costs.

Our owners have been substantially better than 90% of other large clubs out there regardless of what we believe as fans.

The world at large has changed, we are being fleeced from every angle without any real intervention from regulatorary bodies. Airlines, trains, energy suppliers, insurance companies, retailers, HMRC, you name it, they are doing us over a barrel. The world has gone mad and football reflects that in the same way other industries do.

The club want to be the best but that doesn't always benefit the fans, name me a business that does that?

I don't want concert fucking halls and a display cabinet full of clubs I have never heard of, I don't want Jamie Oliver pies or a PA system that would drown out a jet engine operated by a mob of what appears to be children's TV presenters.

I want to watch the football, being anything like Real Madrid should be avoided at all costs.
