You haven’t factored in all the Carabao Cup, FA Cup, CL, away games and finals. Add all of them together and work out how much it costs a season to go and watch City,Incredible value
I'd be wasting my time. There are still too many fans who want it.If you feel strongly enough, why not start a campaign to get everyone to do it in protest ? Perhaps 1894 could drive this ?
I fucked it off years ago, because I saw it was complete con to take your money.
£730 divided by 19 - under £40 a game. I honestly don’t think that is bad at all to be honest. My kids have just order a fucking Nando’s and it has just cost me £77 quid. Is a pound a week worth using the word disgusted??
Would a banner be possible at the real game- a go fund me to fund it? It’d be in view for the board to see in person and maybe understand the sentiment- help out the legacy/local fans.What are fans prepared to do about this?
There are a few things supporters groups can put out, but without the masses getting involved they won’t work.
I’d be reluctant to do anything that affects the atmosphere at our remaining games this year (walk outs and disrupting games off the cards).
We (1894) have tried to pressure city on ticket price rises for years and nothing has worked.
That leaves options like:
- Post match sit-ins
- cup scheme boycotts
- platinum membership boycotts
- protests at CFA
These things could work. But they would require people to actually do something and get involved (rather than sit back and hope 1894 do it for them). They require solidarity and sacrifice from the majority. Would people get involved? Because if not, there’s nothing we can do.
Genuinely open to any feedback or suggestions.
Errr, I can’t quite put my finger on it but I just don’t feel he’ll fit with our squad. Not scientific I know or even a footballing reason just a gut feeling. Sorry. :-)Obviously we don’t need Kane anymore but what have you against Bellingham if you don’t mind me asking?
As Chief Executive of City, does any know how much Soriano is on a year now?
Looking forward to Khaldoon’s end of season speech. Once again, no mention of the season ticket prices rises and an explanation of why.
6pm on a Friday too, knowing full well that it would be the last act before a bank holiday weekend. They know it's unpopular. We know they know it's unpopular. They know we know they know it's unpopular. But on they crack anyway.Reality check, mate?
You spent £77 on a Nandos, I spent £91 today at Aldi for my family's entire week's food shop.
It's disgusting for many.
When it's combined with me also paying for my son, the increases across the board in regards the cost of living.
My quarterly BT bill came today, it's gone up £50, the gas, electric, mobile phone, food, everything costs more and my income is moving further down as companies cut their own cloth accordingly.
My use of the word disgusting also tied in to the timing. In a month when people are trying to find money for Madrid and a Cup Final.
We (paying supporters) are the reason our owners have a business in MCFC, because us paying supporters who went through thin and Rizla paper fuckin' thin are THE VERY REASON they chose to invest in us in the first place because of our(then) fan base and future potential!I'm not going to fall out with anyone (will be my one and only comment), but ignoring the football we watch for a minute, I think the rise is pretty reasonable, and the biggest reason for that, is that City are a business.
Businesses (and individuals, as many are pointing out) are having to take on often huge price increases, so why should City (just like Tesco, or your local pub/restaurant) not pass it on the same ?
We all know that the costs of running any business over the last 12 months has gone up a lot more than the 5% (ish) City are asking. I would imagine that costs of contractors (staff and supplies) has gone up very significantly, not to mention energy price rises for both the club, and it's contractors.
Is he in the Tunnel Club? I thought he was in CBL2? Maybe I ought to save some money by resigning from the OSC!Kevin Parker...........oh yeah he's happy in the tunnel club and a fist full of away tickets
