Interesting that looking at the Twitter profile there's just 2 posts since the end of the 21/22 season by City Matters.

I didn't even realise there was a Twitter account for them.

Maybe give the club some credit when it's due, tickets for Fulham on Saturday, 5 together in SS3 (the Fulham returns), 2 adult and 3 U18 kids costs £136 in total for 5 (assuming all are matchday members getting £5 discount.). That's not bad all things considered? To watch the Treble winners, league leaders, with top-draw striker Haaland in full flow..

3 games at that price out of the 19.

You need to spend £130 on memberships first or you can't get them at all.

Good point, if you only go to one game it's still very expensive....

My first season ticket was 1975/6, a junior ticket on the Kippax when I was 16. I'm sure it cost me £7.

I purchased City's very first Kippax season ticket. I think it was 1974. Yes it was £7, a bargain.

And that was for 21 home games in those days.
Which if my arithmetic is correct works out at @ 33pence per game.
Incredible value,even for those days.

A pint of Robbies or Boddies was around 16p at the time, so each game cost around the same as two pints. That means my drinks before a game cost twice as much as the game itself!!

What I don’t understand about this £5 members discount is that without buying the match day membership you can’t buy the tickets anyway. So why not just advertise at the discounted rate? I understood it when they went to general sale afterwards but now they’ve stopped that what’s the point?

Psychological marketed I guess.

If you buy six tickets over the season, the membership has cost you nothing. If you buy seven plus, you’ve actually made money on the deal.

As opposed to, why am I paying £30 every year, just for the privilege of being allowed to buy overpriced football tickets?
