Screening Away games at the Etihad

[bluestevei]

if I am in luck with getting a ticket I go to the game if not I watch on pc

never watch online anymore unless it's the only option, can always find a boozer with the game on and streams are annoying at times, this is a good idea for those who don't want a pub atmosphere and a more family type chance to watch the game and can't get to the away game and it ain't on telly, but charging to go in and using match day prices will put some people off

Personally if I go out to watch the match I intend t have a few hours drinking either before or after, so a pub with match on and a few beers with mates after in same pub or near it does me fine, if the ground is say open 2pm-5:30pm then it's extra traveling expenses to go out after so unless no other option I would probably not use

In my view the club seem to be getting more and more out of touch with the fans with every survey that goes out.
I'll stick to going to the gameS whilst I can afford it then I'll stop going. Not interested in the slightest in paying to watch an away game on the telly. I'm already paying sky far too much for that shit

I watched the 6-1 in City Square was a great day and very busy. They should do that more often.

I've not been sent the survey and so I don't know if prices were mentioned. But, to be fair to City they will have to pay rights to broadcast any away match shown and staff at the ground. So, they need to cover the costs some how.

Great idea...

The survey mentioned there were PL restrictions to how many, and which games, can be shown at the ground.
A Saturday 3pm kick-off won't be televised live so it's a good opportunity to test the water.
The survey asked if I'd watch it at The Etihad and I said "No", but they didn't ask why. - Answer, cos I'll be at the game.
Had it been a London, south coast or south Wales game they might have got a different answer.

Would be great if they would simultaneously beam the Matchday thread alongside the visuals.

The club will only find out of there is any demand for this by trialing a few selected away games for viewing.

I'd go sounds like a good idea to me.
