renewed today but not done any Cup Schemes yet - I will only do the European one if we get Champs League - Sacking off EFL Cup and FA Cup

 

[VOOMER]

Not as much as the Scum and Pep be still at city when Boreinho gets the boot.

Agreed, I come on here with some ludicrous comments, but I really want him to succeed at stay here for a couple of decades winning 10 titles , 5 CL and 16 more associated cups.

I am opposite sacking CL, managed to get away with EFL &FA cup as we only played 1 game (until semi) but i missed 2 or the 4 CL Home games due to travelling so will risk that one on the off chance we don't make final!

Of all the schemes to stay in it has to be the FA Cup.

Cheap tickets for first few rounds, always at a weekend and guaranteed to be drawn away against a prem team.

You can always rejoin the scheme later into the season, if you want. Nothing wrong with making them wait.....

If you are talking about the Chumps League, then I think the cut off date is 30th September. I pulled out last year owing to pre booked holidays during the qualifier and the early group stages. I asked if I could join later for the knockout stages, and was told no.

it would be good if any of those happened, unfortunately we have too many I'm alright jack fans, who have the money and aren't bothered about other fans being priced out. i think if the 1894 had had no flag displays at all for a few games that could be good. empty seats and no atmosphere happen every game anyway.

I fear you are correct. I am not sure how many fans this forum reaches to make it effective. I have been involved in a few industrial disputes in my time and the ostrich mentality and " I'm alright Jack" attitude is the same as the fellow Blues who are scoffing at the outrage now, people never change. What also never changes is the sense of bewilderment these same people feel when suddenly they realise they have been picked off, priced out, whatever you want to call it and when they look around no one is there to help them. Of course all too late they realise the people they mocked or couldn't care less about in their " I'm alright Jack" attitude were right.

some good points there mate. even if you can afford it, platinum, the cup schemes, the tunnel club...., surely you have to look around you at the ground and be concerned with the direction the club is going ( fan wise ).ive mentioned this a few times, but you can see it when you go to games. the majority of people are over 50, barely any young lads going to games. you would have thought with one of the most successful periods in our history the ground would be bouncing, but its not. theres more empty seats then ever imo and the atmosphere is awful. theres a disconnection between the core fan base and the club at the minute.

As has been pointed out if all season cards have been increased by £20 then with 40,000 of us that's an extra £800k. However some cards have actually decreased and some have been frozen so the increased revenue could actually be a lot lower. Throw in all the people who go from platinum to gold and I can't understand why City have done what they have done. I assume that the club will also generate extra income from those who invest in the tunnel club seats. The reality is with an decrease of £20 per ticket this thread would be full of people whilst still moaning the decrease isn't enough at least not giving up on the club. I only hope the club reads threads like this and act accordingly.

yeah but you're all moaning ****s and who gives a fuck if you can't afford it or are sick of stupid kick off times (next two home games?) or the wonderful match day experience and players wages or all seater stadiums ..stupid points rip offs and clubs who see you as a revenue stream not a supporter

I don't as I'm alright

Love Jack

You're falling in to the trap of the brainwashed rag and talking about empty seats. You should concentrate on the full ones. Last season and this season are the highest average attendance we have ever achieved in 120 years of history. We should be proud of and celebrate our attendances, not falling for the bullshit "Fake News" pushed on Facebook by a load of idiotic and insecure rags.

54,000 plus is more than Liverpool and their "wonderful supporters" have achieved in their glorious history, so City fans really need to get over this inferiority complex about empty seats and puff out your chest a bit and stick up for the club.

The atmosphere is shit, but show me a ground that's got a better atmosphere today than it had 20 years ago. The only one I can think of is Selhurst Park and they have organised flags, drums and megaphones and all sorts of shite. It's not for me.

If it's a tight game against a close rival the atmosphere will take care of itself - the Chelsea game, Arsenal game and the derby being good examples. But a 12.30 kick off against West Brom will be a shite atmosphere, I guarantee it. But it would have been shite 20 years ago at Maine Road. After the Kippax went all seating, the atmosphere at Maine Road was often shite too.
