Seasoncard Renewals | Slight Price Increase

City copying Blackburn with the 14 game season ticket. If you decide to go to all the the games add £315+ back on.
 
Would the new "silver season ticket" be an option for you and your mum? ok, you would miss the bigger games (or opt to pay separately for one or two) but you would save some money and still get to at least 14 home games a season.

Yeah i'm thinking about it, i'm not sure what to do really - i'm not going to rush into anything whilst emotional, i'll give it a week and see how things seem.. And i plan to beg my sister to contribute to mums ticket - she has always refused (despite working) as it's me who goes with mum and not her, so in her mind it's up to me to pay. But i feel she could help.. for mum.
 
We were told about the increases a couple of weeks ago and my reaction was that, under the current circumstances, it was tone deaf. The club made some justification about their costs increasing but the real reason is that Ferran Soriano will always look to put up prices while we're watching the quality of football we are currently.

That's not a strategy; it's short-term opportunism. It's the action of someone who sees us as formulas on a spreadsheet, not as loyal fans. What happens when the quality isn't as good? I bet we won't get a refund or price decrease. I'd have more respect if he came out and faced the fans to justify his pricing approach but, as usual, he's the Invisible Man.

On the positive side there's a range of price options, particularly if you're not too bothered where you sit. £299 to watch possibly the best team in the world is an absolute steal. Or you can pay £1300 in 93:20 for a padded seat if that's your bag.
like i said earlier

for me ita an extra £25 me,son £10 ,so an extra £35 i have to find

in his world,soriano,he'll spend that on a lunch any day of the week and think " whats the problem "

If the club actually gave a shit about the fans, season cards (other than their precious corporate hospitality areas) would be max £500 wherever you sat.

The City hierarchy are money grabbing bastards, nothing but. The stadium will probably be 50% hospitality and everything else priced at 93:20 levels within 5 years if Pep decides to extend.

The price of success.

Soriano thinks he's still at Barcelona.

He's changing our support/fan base, our demographics, and our terrace culture. He's already driven 1000's of local City fans out. And displaced 1000's of other City fans inside the ground. His sole aim and purpose is to drive reveune at any cost, regardless of it impacting on our local fan base. He might have been in-charge of City for over decade now, but he still doesn't understand or get our local fan base. And doesn't want to. He may make us Barcelona on the pitch, but in doing so, he will make us Barcelona on the terraces.
 
The number of low price tickets is the key, not how cheap they are.

At Bayern München, there are 12,000 (yes, TWELVE THOUSAND!) value/budget price tickets at about £250.

I’d be amazed if there are more than 2.5% of that number of the Value Gold tickets at City.
Bang on. It's the difference between doing something for appearances, and doing something meaningful to make sure matches are accessible for the community they love to reference.

Soriano would probably leave more than £35 as a tip.

Multi millionaires taking the piss out of the proletariat. That's the top and bottom of it.
 
Has (slight increase) been added to the title? Or am I imagine it has?
