I used to qualify for Fulham tickets. Not a prayer I'll get one now. Despite getting every single point available since they were scrapped for away games.

Joke isn't it. Every season the percentage of tickets going to points gets smaller and smaller squeezing more and more people off the ladder

Front 3 or 4 rows are classed as restricted view at Fulham. They aren't though. They're great seats. That'll account for at least 2-300 plus there's a couple of posts that'll cause more restricted views.

Now we should debate why points end up with all the restricted views and not the OSC's or other groups who get tickets......

I’m an OSC member who has a gazillion points, plenty of others in our club have loads as well. Many have followed City since the 60’s and 70’s, there are very few under 40 and 50, I’m 63, a youngster amongst some proper old school fans.
We can often only get 3 or 4 tickets for an away game, with 300 members.
There’s only a small group who travel regularly, so to compare points with many long in the tooth OSC members, is somewhat ill informed.
For the semi, our seats were in the £45 category, it differs every visit.
It’s the same at away games, we get what we’re given, nothing preferential in seat location, I’ve been at the front, back, by home fans, in the middle, restricted views.

The Brighton semi was the only other semi where empty seats were clearly obvious - empty blocks covered over. I think Sunday will have shocked the club into action - but what action I do not know. Just my opinion. Fan engagement - I take your point - subjective discussion.

There were empty seats at the Sheffield United semi-final the season before last, and there was a lot of commotion about empty seats in the Liverpool semi-final the year before, with the infamous banner covering the seats, also numerous community shields. I just don't understand the logic that this time they'll modify their policies to prevent it from happening again, when history suggests they won't. I agree that Khaldoon probably doesn't like it, but for whatever reason, he has given Sorriano the keys to the castle, and we appear to be following his policies unconditionally.

I think OSC members used to get the worst of the tickets and Bluemooners were OK with that. Now we can be allocated anywhere in the stand like most Blues.

I've been to every semi since SM took over and every final bar one (I gave my ticket to my son). I suppose with Sheffield having a very limited fan base, the size of our crowd was less noticeable because we had more there. I didn't see anything too disturbing crowd-size-wise at the Liverpool semi. Sunday and Brighton were the stand-outs. On this forum, a fair few fans think they have the answers. The Community Shield doesn't bother me too much. Doesn't solve the fan issue and I'm not papering over the cracks, but I'm surprised that when any team doesn't sell its allocation, the FA cannot find a way of using those seats.

Got a last one in before taken off sale at 1005am!!
Top tier 1774
Posh seats 949
lower tier 1554
Total, 4277 unsold
Plus the unreleased blocks.
So about 27500 sold.

To be honest, they’ll be about 32000 blues there, including those who get tickets through the FA at grass roots clubs and all other clubs eligible.

You’re welcome!

But, another statement from the fans, that they can stick Wembley semi’s at 4-30pm on a Sunday and, expensive seats, right up their arse.
That, or we don’t have any fans, Haalands not playing and, nobody’s got any money, but we’ll go to the final!

Some very important admin on the semi final thread, it was largely reported we had 4 1/2 unreleased blocks it was actually only 3 1/2, a big error in the counting process
 
There are high numbers of single and doubles low down in the blocks online for the Wolves game. That suggests a lot of seasoncard holders are trying to sell their seats on the exchange but that the match-day prices are too high to sell them. The pricing works from the perspective of a full ground / max. revenue for weekend fixtures, but it fails for midweek games when proportionately more seasoncard holders put their tickets up for sale. No doubt City will report a sell-out for the Wolves game as they did for Villa, but there will be a lot of seasoncard no-shows and empty seats again.

Wolves was listed as a guaranteed refund game wasn’t it or have the club changed the goalposts on it.
 
Whilst I absolutely agree the prices are far too high, some people seem to be suggesting a ‘dynamic pricing’ type model. That is, Wolves on a Friday night, with nothing on it, should be very cheap and we’d likely sell out.
That’s all well and good but, if we were a point behind/in front at the top of the table, would they then look to charge double, as everyone would be desperate to be there?
