Prices of attending games post Covid?

more likely to go up, especially if attendances are reduced meaning more demand for fewer tickets

I can think of at least 2 people on this forum who (in the last week) have posted that they have saved money as a result of the restrictions. There will be a lot more because it’s not a popular comment to make.

There are plenty of people who are struggling too, of course. My income has collapsed but good luck to those who are doing OK. Some of the people I worked with have stopped working because they are being paid enough to live on through Government self-employment grants.

Greed and the will to make up for lost income will be the likely outcome imo, many clubs may offer an initial incentive, but I honestly believe, like a lot of other businesses, they will misjudge the public’s stance on it and go the wrong way, maybe not MCFC so muc, I think we’re a little more in touch with the fans, but other clubs may well do.

Like they say , “a fool and his money are soon parted”, I won’t be one of them.

Do you feel as though the club is in touch with us fans? I don't. I feel as though I've been made to feel less important year on year and the club care more about attracting new customers than retaining old ones.

2 people on this forum are not enough to to say " there are as many gainers as losers, financially, from the pandemic."

Iv been in work all through this pandemic and saved money purely by not going to football,the same as say,a rugby fan not attending their chosen sport or someone eating at home because restaurants have been closed,that can't amount to say i'm a " gainer "

a lot of people have been treading water at best in my area of Manchester,a lot are also in deep shit.

So how then are you in a worse position to buy, for example, a season card for next season? The issue being discussed is whether there is an economic case for reducing season card prices because of the pandemic.

FWIW, I think it would be great if the players took a pay cut to reduce the price of tickets.

jesus wept

i just said Iv saved money through not attending football !!! you got that ?

I'm talking about blues i live and know of ,they havn't been so lucky

Look,my take on it,put prices up liked they'v done year on year for most of the last 10 years and there will be a backlash,I know blues home and away that haven't missed going ,and have been hit at how much they spend on city
and things aint going back to how they were i feel for a lot.

good idea about players and a pay cut etc,but iv got to go and try and get a photo,I'v just seen a flock of pigs fly over my house

Don’t agree with the Pep bit but otherwise you are right. I keep switching our games off. Part of it is no fans there though. VAR is the main thing though. It’s killed the game.

I hope I'm wrong on Pep but I'm not sure the players are playing for him anymore.
Saturday was awful.
