Seat Counters - 2024/25

I hate to thing of the ridiculous things the club will dream up to get people to attend if we're in either of the Thursday leagues. Not adults for a tenner and kids for a fiver though as that might work.

Judging by the Salford sales, it won’t! :-)

So to summise we are going to end the year unable to fill our ground because we have priced out our locals, and we are not having a light blue kit at the club World Cup, and away tickets go to Barcelona fans, bit of a shit show all in all.

Local fans of all clubs will start voting with their feet soon mate, something has to change

We sold out nearly every game last season, this season loads of games have failed to sell out including big games like Inter.

Despite what the club may think, we're not big in the way the rags and dippers are, where they can charge whatever they want and the tourists will hoover them all up.

Exactly !!! The idea that City are holding back this second batch of tickets until 3 weeks before is yet more bullshit to disguise what they are up to.

The ‘second batch’ have been in the hands of agents for months and any they can’t flog for hugely inflated prices get slung back to City to try and sell to proper supporters.

The whole set up stinks and shame on everybody at City involved in this seedy operation.

As more and more flexigold tickets get sold, then the 3 week before onsale will become even more enshrined.

As you say atm it's presumably mainly tickets being returned from ticket agencies.

In the future, there will be the two firmly established onsales - start of the season and 3 weeks before games.

And there will be an awful lot more tickets available 3 weeks before any midweek matches than games against the so called top 6.

West Ham have now got more visible empty seats than City have. Watch any West Ham home game against a lesser team, or a midweek match, and you will see 1000’s of empty seats all over the ground.

The question is, after over a decade of success, dominating English football, and attracting 100,000’s of new supporters in Gtr Manchester, in the UK, and abroad, why aren’t City selling out and shifting returned official ticket touting website tickets, and seat exchange tickets? That support is there, but it isn’t in the Etihad.

Our home support should be up there with United, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Spurs, who regularly sell out much bigger capacity stadiums, even for midweek and rearranged games. (I appreciate Arsenal had loads of empty seats at the Emirates stadium during their slump a few years ago)

It’s all good and well selling PL matches out at the start of the season and during the season, as it shows demand is there for ‘normal’ kick off times’, but when games are rearranged for TV, or are a midweek game, we struggle to sell returned and resale tickets for a ‘53,000’ capacity Etihad.

What is apparent from this thread. People have looked at buying tickets for the Everton match, looked at the tickets prices, and gone fuck that, I’m not paying that price for a ticket/s. Multiply that by the amount of City fans who haven’t posted on this thread and don’t post on Blue Moon. That’s a lot of City fans being priced out of the Everton match on Boxing Day by City.

Now.
