This. If times are hard and money is tight then this is a game to swerve. The only jeopardy is us having two play off matches next month or not. Hardly nail biting stuff although like Pep and everyone else I’d rather us finish top 8 to avoid the play offs and have some rest time for the players, and potentially save fans more bloody expense !To be fair I’m not sure on the prices, but is that £35 in the cheapest seats behind the goal and also you need a £35 membership as well. Usually the rest of the ground is more expensive
I personally think it should be a bit cheaper, as a lot of these champions league games seem meaningless. I know we probably need to win this one, but even then is anyone really that bothered about this one?
First home game we'll be up against another side usually in the CL and the club will charge silly prices. Thousands will leave the EL cup scheme in protest and the remaining home games will have cheaper tickets and loads of empty seats.I guess my point is that plenty of blues will have considered going to the Galatasaray game, but when they logged on and saw it was 35 quid they decided to leave it.
I refuse to believe that in a City with a population of 2 million, there aren't thousands and thousands of blues who'd love a cheap evening at the match.
I shudder to think of what European Nights might look like if we find ourselves in the europa league.

Guarantee that if Fulham was a weekend game, those £30 tickets would fly off the shelves. Midweek in mid-winter and they sell a lot slower. We saw it last season - the £30 tickets not taken up by the visiting club in SS3 didn't sell quickly for midweek games, but when Palace didn't take up their SS3 allocation for a 12.30pm Saturday game, they all got snapped up by City fans in no time.Looks like level 3 off sale for Newcastle now so they can fill the lower tiers.
The club are selling £30 tickets for Fulham in the returned seats in SS3 - there are 918 left! If the club aren’t worried about that then they should be. Clearly it’s not just a pricing matter. It’s disengagement and silly rules that have turned occasional fans away.
I can't help but feel that a few years ago they would've flown off the shelves regardless of what time of day the game was.Guarantee that if Fulham was a weekend game, those £30 tickets would fly off the shelves.

it's possible that people are waiting until payday before buying tickets. I think we'll see a surge in sales on Friday and over the weekendTickets remaining for League Cup Semi-Final 2nd Leg v Newcastle. 9 days to go until the game and selling about a couple of hundred tickets a day.

Level 0: 4,316 - some 3rd party sellers have obviously returned tickets to the club.
Level 1: 3,466
Level 3: estimated 4,245 as Level 3 is now greyed out since Monday afternoon.

Unfortunately this is a bit of a seat counting myth, yes we might see few hundred more tickets sell, but payday is certainly not going to cause a surge in sales.it's possible that people are waiting until payday before buying tickets.

Why should city fans be having to use Facebook sites to buy tickets though? They should be affordable in the first placeEqually, this is the game to attend for the hardcore of fans who also have a role in the safety of fellow Blues.
Tickets for tomorrow night are cheap on the face value pages.
Each to their own
I was thinking the same thingWhy should city fans be having to use Facebook sites to buy tickets though? They should be affordable in the first place
A lot of the overseas chanting seems to bear zero relation to what’s going on on the pitch or the state of the match!And the Liverpool one first half. In fact quite a few of the biggest ones. But these group games are always awful. I hate foreign chanting and I hate the way it drowns out our fans.

Mine sold although it was two together which helps.If its your season ticket seat that you are paying for monthly or in one hit then you should have the decision on how much it sells for, with the max set at 1/19 of your season ticket. I cant make the Fulham game as im working away that week but guarantee my seat wont sell on the seat exchange. None of it makes any kind of sense.
Thats because it doesnt.A lot of the overseas chanting seems to bear zero relation to what’s going on on the pitch or the state of the match!

? Of course I don’t have a problem with people selling on tickets and providing a cheaper alternative.If 2 tickets in Level 0 for &30 allows another couple of Bkues to go and cheer on the lads, what’s to ur problem. I thought yku were pro cheaper prices but is they only on youur terms.
