Hopefully not.

I don't trust the Gutterpress and would never speak a word to any of them.
In fairness as others have alluded to, this Internet forum is not a full representation of how Manchester City Supporters feel.

Many will be happy clapping for years to come, happy to be squeezed up until their pockets are dry, with many staying around as they have the wealth to.

Spend! Spend! Spend!

Scrimping and saving to see twats like Nasri wearing an earring worth more than the fucking house I rent?
No thanks, not for me.

I bet he doesn't even wear that earring now as it doesn't suit his new hairstyle.

Long gone are the days when we actually loved taking the piss out of ourselves,with some wonderful comical choral verses coming from our fans.Wasn`t it great when we got beat by the Rags twice a fucking year and the euphoria of even getting a point out of `em.

First world problems
 
I dropped all the cup schemes and moved from Platinum to Gold 12 months ago purely on cost grounds

I considered not renewing this time depending on the price rise (it is £20 in my case in CB1)

The 2 reasons why I am renewing is because my son who I sit next to is renewing and in 12 months time I'll be classified as an OAP so my ticket will cost much less, so I'll bite the price rise bullet for this renewal

FFS - you forgot about the glass tunnel... and the boat trip ... and the early leavers ... and the ...
 
Here's an interesting one.

Business rate hikes for football clubs.

Can't find City's new business rate, so don't know if it's gone up or down.

But United's has apparently gone down.

The grounds with the highest rateable values belong to top-flight teams with the biggest grounds, such as Arsenal (£6.13m) and Manchester United (£6.09m).

However, Premier League giants including Chelsea and Arsenal actually saw a drop in their rateable values, of minus seven per cent each. Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur both enjoyed falls of minus eight per cent. http://www.cityam.com/263877/premier-league-clubs-including-swansea-city-southampton-and
 
I've really been toying with renewing, similar reasons to what have already been stated:

- Atmosphere (and linking it to cost).
- Old faces dropped away, no pre or post match beers (no friends, violins please).
- Can't secure band B/C type aways anymore despite platinum. Slipped 3/4 levels of sale within 6 months despite regular matchgoing so something dodgy going on there.

I've met this halfway and gone for a value gold, and will probably buy a seasoncard for non-league with some of the cost saving, chopping and changing depending on kick off times.
 
Just checked the various announcements for next season:
  • Rags & Chelsea frozen (and both have been for quite a few seasons),
  • Liverpool frozen,
  • Everton frozen or reduced,
  • Spurs are moving to Wembley of course but prices will be lower than at WHL,
  • Arsenal haven't formally announced yet but did promise they wouldn't be increased.
