Seat Counters 25/26

Very few of us can do every match home and away. You have to pick your matches. I always do Wembley for some sort of OCD reason as I like ticking off the visits since 1970! It doesn't make me a better fan in any way. Everyone has different choices in life and that's as it should be.
I am the same. I love going to Wembley and keep it cheap. Full car. Wealdstone or Just park nearby. In and out SAS style.
 
Anyone undecided or concerned about £££, there appears to be £30's back on sale, £20 for under 18.
Yeah they've opened block 520...I wonder if that's an algorithm that kicks in, when the block next to it (519 in this case) has sold a certain amount, it goes on sale automatically, or they do it manually?
 
Right so because you’ve paid your mortgage and one minted bloke at Chelsea couldn’t be arsed, our fanbase is apathetic and can’t be bothered?

It’s almost like you don’t consider the circumstances of what lots of people are in.

We’re going to take about 25,000, having already taken about 10k more than that a month earlier and we’ll take about 8k more than that in a few weeks time (if we hopefully beat Southampton).

You’re looking at about 90,000 Wembley tickets sold by City fans this season, for games within a 8 weeks of each other.

Jesus mate, no wonder they are clamping down on who can buy ;-)
 
I may be off on the stats, but I had a mooch around and it seems we have approx 36K ST holders and 100K match day members. Let's assume we sell 25K, that means 82% of the fan base, for whatever reason, are not going. The other 3 clubs will sell out, we know the reasons why. There are so many reasons for our turn out. However as there are thousands of the cheaper tickets unsold it can't be the cost of the game. It has to be Wembley fatigue, not the stadium, but the whole day experience, plus people hedging for the final. Our first semi there v rags was so exciting, people busted a gut to get there now it really has become an imposition. What we need is a around 10K southern blues to take up the slack, but that ain't happening is it....

Thing is from what I can see there aren't thousands of the cheaper seats left, all the 45 quid and below have been sold (apart from block 520 which was added a few minutes ago)

The cost of the tickets isn't the most expensive part of the trip so your wrong the cost of attending the game is a big reason.
