Seat Counters - 2023/24

Interesting. Never known the club to increase prices mid season before. Is that the norm? I thought once the prices were set for the season that was it?

They did last season, some that were £30 (SS1) ended up £48 after rising twice.

in 2021/22 they lowered priced in the last week for a lot of games, but 2022/23 was the opposite.

Ever since 2009 they have not published price lists and said this was due to Dynamic Pricing. Cookie Monster.

Prices showed 4 cats at the start of the season (or second release if not available) and since then Burnley Prices have increased £2.

AdultO6518-21U18
Ful/Pal/Bou/LT/Bren£49£31£31£21
Forest/BH/SU/Eve/Burn/WW/AV£59£41£41£31
Spurs/Newc/WHam£69£51£51£41
Chelsea/Ar/Lp/MU£73£55£55£45

Seems Brentford are at £51, Villa £61 now, and likely all tickets have had a £2 price increase mid season, including concessions.

Therefore Burnley remain Cat 3 or C, just they increased ticket prices at some point this season.

Looks to me like the cheapest band is purely based on those who they don’t expect to take up the full allocation of away tickets. Rather than the attractiveness of the fixture.

Perhaps some people base their attendance on the quality of the opposition rather than the quality of City. - Not sure what they did when we were playing Colchester and Bristol Rovers.

They could count themselves very lucky if the missed the painful 0-0 v bristol rovers, I can still remember it now unfortunately:-/

It’s one of several reasons.

It’s an unattractive fixture at a bad time of year with a shit kick off time. The tickets are very expensive and Burnley haven’t taken a full allocation. Then you throw in a train strike and torrential rain and a gale, and you’ll see how many empties there will be.

Yeah you make some good points, initially I was surprised Burnley didn't take their full allocation as they used to have a good away following, and some might make the most of it with a nearby away game rather than travelling to London, but as you said there is train strike and some might be a bit fed up with their team, and almost certain to get beat here.

Compare these prices to 21/22 or even last season and you see how much match day prices have increased. In 21/22, games like united and Liverpool were £63, games like Brentford more like £30-£40.

These days Burnley midweek in January is starting at £61 (£2 less than Liverpool just 2 years ago) and nearly every league fixture is £50+, a huge increase from the £31 of 21/22.

I’ll be willing to donate to a banner about ticket prices if anyone knows someone who can make one and put it same place where the one vs Arsenal was last year so the world can see it it’s the only way we can get some pressure on the club to change the ways or it’s only going to get worse

Really great idea, although I'm guessing the club have to approve these big displays, which they likely wouldn't if it was complaining about their ticket prices. One of the 1894 lads could probably give more context to how that process works
 
I was speaking to a head steward during the game and he said City had sold 51 thousand seats and that Burnley had only 800 fans. So surprised as reading Bluemoon this week I really thought I'd be the only one there. But on a serious note I really would be willing to donate to a banner as the prices are a joke. £33 for a 8 Yr old and £61 for an adult in ss1. Totally uneceptable in my opinion.
 
At least 1 large block of empty seats in ESL3 and in CBL3 at the top of each tier

Couldn’t be arsed taking pictures.

Ticket Exchange seats my arse!

Yet some posters on here have convinced themselves and others that the game was sold out, and the empty seats are ticket exchange seats, and were relisted by City fans who couldn’t make the game, but the seats didn’t sell.

Back to the point of the discussion which wasn’t ticket exchange seats.

Hopefully City have learnt a lesson for next season and they will stop pricing City fans out of matches with ridiculous match day ticket prices? That is all. Good night. 3-1. :-)

I wouldn't hold your breath, sadly.

Those ones at the top of the stand are the offsite hospitality they took off sale and released to general sale earlier this month, they need to fuck those off for this type of match.
