Seat Counters - 2024/25

[Gone for a Burton]

This is what happens when the financial lunatics take over the asylum. Empty seats at home on Boxing Day...
View attachment 140817

The finance/commercial executives should be removed from tickting matters.

The simple ambitio should be to sell 60000 tickets to City fans for EVERY home game an to deploy flexible affordable pricing to achieve it.

Maximising revenue from non corporate seats must be for the birds....fans first !!

If all tickets went on sale in July this game would be sold out.

I’m guessing about 60k of tickets have already been sold for Boxing Day. Most Ticket Exchange tickets are sold twice.

Yes, also Southampton away in the 90s, Boxing Day 12 o'clock KO. Set off at 5-30am from the Fylde Coast. I think that was the match where there was a special supporters plane chartered.

2 planes, I was on one of them.

Theses empty seats are RETURNS!
The game was sold out

These will still probably sell out again before kick off
As for cheap affordable tickets ?,all that will happen is they will still sell them as they are cheap ,people will still not go if they cannot be bothered or even worse ,sold to a third party and end up back on ticket sites at inflated prices ?

I applauded ur Citizen Smith attitude to this ,but I do not think you have really thought it through ?

Block 306 has 162 seats available, most of which are in 1 block of seats all next to each other. They are returns yes, but not from season ticket holders, they are returns from tout sites or off site hospitality.
If City had just sold them as general admission in the summer, even at the disgusting prices they are on there at, they probably would have sold, but through sheer fucking greed they held them back from proper fans and are now desperately sending texts out informing people that they can have up to four tickets, this is the week before Christmas.
Incidentally, I checked that block yesterday and there were 162 available then, not one ticket has sold, and this is just one example, we’ll be nowhere near a sell out for fucking Boxing Day.

When it comes to ticketing, the club have completely and utterly lost the plot. There is no defending them. I agree with a previous poster, people should be dismissed from their job and a complete reset, with new people and new ideas is needed, otherwise the extension is going to be a disaster.

"Post (Away Tickets)Tickets will be posted to the lead purchaser via Royal Mail Tracked 48 post, approximately 2 to 3 days prior to the fixture."

So they may to you by the morning of the game, and if you want to stay over after brentford you can swivel.
