I'm about 1,400 on it, if I remember rightly. I didn't sign up for the lowest price, but for the mid-range. About £500. Now assuming I get a season ticket when the stand extensions are built, does this mean that I'll be automatically in the third level, or do I have any chance whatsoever of getting a ticket, anywhere, in any stand, at second level? It's important to me, because although I'd be happy to have a season ticket at all, the way you read the game and get a grasp on it is, in my experience, entirely sharper at second level (first level you're up too close to the action, you don't have enough distance, that's my experience anyway. You get to hear Joe swearing at everybody — and he does have a lot to say for himself — but second level is ideal as far as I'm concerned).
You should be okay. First dibs on the cheaper seats in the extended South Stand are for existing season ticket holders which will create room
in the existing areas. Actually if you are 1,400 on the list you should get the option to get one for 2014-15 in an existing area as we think
(earlier posts) approximately 2,000 people don't renew each season. That might be your best bet if you specifically want a level 2 seat
because come 2015-16 the level 2 people on the south side of CB & East Stands will be looking to relocate as their seats become corporate areas.
I'm guessing quite a few of them might be looking at staying at level 2 in other parts of the stadium.

Thing is, though, I've been budgeting right from the start on the assumption of only getting an ST from August 2015. If it's on for next season already, I'm fucked financially!

Glad to be of assistance.
Don't worry if you can't get one for next season you will remain on the list for 2015-16 and will move up a few places as some
of those above you will take up tickets for 2014-15. My username is that of City's manager in the 1930s, which was of course
our "golden era" pre war, we won the FA Cup in 1934 and the League, for the first time in ... 1937.

I'd be interested to know how many people actually managed to get tickets for 2014-15.
