Seat Counters - 2023/24

Apparently there are 330-odd tickets reserved for OSC members that have to be paid by midnight tonight. If not paid, tomorrow morning they will be removed and placed on sale.

Get on it boys and girls, last chance saloon.

FWIW, rules passed at the OSC AGM mean 70% or more of the members of a Branch have to live in the country where the Branch is.

Turning to the wider point. For years City struggled to fill away ends at some London grounds. The Saturday we beat Chelsea 3 nil with KDB scoring the goals there were a row of Chinese tourists in front of me. I think they were just in London on holiday and weren’t part of any fans group. I don’t think we had taken up our full allocation. It’s a big improvement now that we could consistently fill these ends with genuine Blues, particularly when the ticket allocation is right.

I can see tourists wanting to go to Premier League games, I do the same when I am on holiday but I don't buy tickets in the away fans end. Why would any tourist buy tickets in the City end? Follow the money, how did those tickets happen to be on sale to tourists?

Think you will find all the London clubs benefit from tourists, Torrenham have won "fuck all,' for years not to mention West Ham almost doubling their attendances.
We're building a new stand to accommodate them.

When? I have been looking for weeks, the planner wasn’t showing any seats. And recently just says Sold Out.

The e-mail went out about 2 weeks ago,went on sale at 10.00 29th April, there was a queue I managed to get 2. I've been looking for any others to pop up as I'm looking for 1 more. I haven't seen any but apparently @Didsbury Dave saw 3 and grabbed one. Doubt any will get returned at this stage though.

Cheers, I must have missed that email. However I did manage to get a flexigold ST so hopefully no more scrambling for tickets.

City couldn’t shift the tickets in those days so rather than take the financial hit they probably would have sold the tickets on to a tour operator or something similar. That’s a different situation to now when demand outstrips supply.
