I cannot justify it tbh. . But it was my sons birthday a week before and I thought fuck it. Every fan blue or red on Saturday that paid to be there should not have to pay extortionate money to pay for wembley or free loaders like Alex Crook. Crook by name, Fuck8ng Crook by nature.I take my hat of you.
That's alot of money to spend, something I wouldnt do to be honest. :)

Well said, 100% correct.So Alex this is my story from the weekend. As a family of 4 we booked into a hotel for 2 nights (£250) we got taxis to wembley then back with tips (120). Food at wembly plus beers for me (90) food and drink over the weekend (180). Fuel (50). Tickets x 3 memorabilia (170) . Parking (20)
So approx 880. We are both self employed so loss of 2 days income. So fuckers like Alex Crook who would have had an all expenses paid day out then get to call out fans who also had to endure no trains , tube closures . 32k City fans was an immense amount of fans. If Alex Crook wants to meet on our next visit to wembley I would be happy to discuss it with him. Fucking parasitic wanker. Bigger crowd than yesterday's Cockley semi as well I heard. Well Alex your time will come, calling City's fan base is all you have left. We are the best run club in the world you closet red shirted wanker.

Fantastic commitment to the club. I increasingly wonder whether Soriano and his ilk give a shit about the fans. As the cost of living gets worse I would hope City stop fleecing the fans/or at least help subsidiseSo Alex this is my story from the weekend.

Not sure how the club are at fault for wembley prices or anything else to do with Saturday. £60 for a CL semi final is a fucking bargain imo and have bought 4 for it.Fantastic commitment to the club.

I stayed in London over the weekend and have just got back. Our hotel was in Paddington. Paddington station was full of Liverpool ‘fans’ after the game going back to the South West. Prior to the game I was in a pub in Baker Street. Talking to a bunch of Liverpool fans from Wolverhampton. To me these fans that follow Liverpool (and United) are the definition of glory hunters. They have zero connection to Liverpool as a city. Is it a coincidence that these people choose to support one of the two most successful clubs in the the country and world? No it isn’t, they can’t be bothered supporting their local team and have taken the easy route. The same goes for these presenters who pop up on TS with southern accents and support United or Liverpool. They are glory hunters get to spout their shite on national radio and the social media fan boys lap it up.

I know what you are saying but surely those who pay for advertising know the figures are fudged?Daily mail identified that market a few years back unfortunately the 8 out of ten is the silent majority, go on the BBC sport site, you will find around 6 scousers on abusing everyone using multiple user names working 3 shifts,, the BBC actually supports them with censorship of their prey, after all the click bait matters.

Not really mate. Daft if anything. I cannot afford to go many games now. With logistics and price it just isn't feasible. I doft my cap to all City fans who try to attend as many as possible. Those that go home and away have my utter admiration.Fantastic commitment to the club. I increasingly wonder whether Soriano and his ilk give a shit about the fans.

The free coaches to Wembley were supplied by the FA, as they were for Littlewoods, because the trains weren’t running.Free flights to porto, free coaches to Wembley.. the club usually do alright by the fans
