Seat Counters - 2023/24

[MadchesterCity]

Not picking holes in @MadchesterCity post, was discussing accommodation and I actually agree tickets are far too much for both adults and kids, I’m also going to the game with a mate, and altogether it’s costing me £75.

I would and do stay in hostels to keep cost down, I've stayed in clubs/ casinos / stations/ travel overnight before to cut costs but I don't think they'd let me bring a 3 year old in lol

Personally, I think it's a shame the kids tickets are overpriced for many families. There is nothing better than seeing the joy of a young blue at his/ her first match. Its magical, they appreciate the spectacle and can often hook them for life

I can’t remember a home game when we didn’t discuss price of tickets etc, the club need to sort it out because we are a working class fan base, by rights it should be cheaper when they build the NS but I some how can’t see it, how much will CL tickets cost if we get a RM.

suitable for 4 people, I'll stay anywhere but when you've got young children and also need parking (as most on street parking near Etihad is gone) then accommodation options are more limited. We tend to stick to Premier Inn and Travelodge as they can accommodate for families. When the fixture was announced I checked my regular hotels they were all upwards of £125, I normally don't mind staying out-with Manchester to reduce costs. I've already decided this fixture is one too many for me from an expense perspective, I do think it should be more affordable for local families with young children though

I suspect there is something else major happening this weekend AND Newcastle fans snapped up loads of accommodation immediately after draw. For future reference I'd be interested to see where you have a £50-£70 options Saturday night?

Part of that is the Councils are using lots of the cheap hotels for Temporary Accommodation and it has increased year on year for over a decade and gone mental in the last 2.

Why are we picking holes in this lads figures when even at the cheapest its to much why the club never gets called out as others would rather pick holes elsewhere then attribute blame to where it really matters.

yes this games cheaper then most PL games but it’s much more short notice and as other mention when push comes to shove at this time of year people are bound to cherrypick games.

the next round of the CL will be interestingly priced I imagine.

Says a lot when we have some of the most expensive kids tickets in the league.

There will come a point where they price out those who can afford it right now if we’re not careful with the Cl reform it will also mean a guaranteed extra payment next year going forward which could prevent some people on the cusp already.

It doesn’t help when other posters chose to double the price of the cheapest junior tickets and start the adult prices at 93:20 rates.

The tickets should be cheaper. I’m all for that. I also want to see Haaland and KDB. It’s a balancing act and I know match day revenue is the minority of our turnover. It still affects a big chunk of our profits and newer investors want a regular return on their money.

I always say this but for a one looking for affordable tickets, see what they are going for on Man City Face Value Tickets & Travel. (Not sites with similar names that could be scammers). The people on there help fellow Blues out a lot if the time.

Many will say it should be City offering the lower prices and I don’t disagree.

My Copenhagen ticket in EL2 was £50, I'm expecting £70/75 for Real Madrid and £85 for Arsenal
