Pissed off ....brought my ticket for West Brom a week ago couldn't make the villa game so just wanting a West Ham ticket...some twat at City has decided I can`t do that this morning,you have to buy the last three match bundle.
I could purchase one on the 9th of this month (blue card with thousands of points) by which time any fooker with no points would have bought them all as a bundle.
So ended up on the phone just now selling them back my West brom ticket and having to buy the bundle just so I won`t miss out on the last game.
 
It goes with the territory. Successful club - marketeers paradise. And racketeers paradise, too!

I do the Dale Golden Bond ('bout bloody time I won!) and their matches are regularly advertised on the results sheet - Saturdays 3pm Pay on the gate! Those were the days at Maine Road. You could go in any turnstiles and walk round three sides of the ground! Nowt reserved, all standing, and if yer wanted fresh air yer could settle for the North Stand, except it was only a banking and not a stand. Well, yer had to stand, but there wasn't a 'stand' over yer 'ead, if yer see what I mean. And then they put a roof over it, and shove a pile of seats in.

How can City sell you a ticket for West Ham when they are not on sale yet ?

I imagine that they are saying that if you want to guarantee West Ham ticket now then you have to purchase the bundle. I'm sure they will go on sale individually nearer the match.

So have you actually bought the bundle now? They don't seem to have been released for online sale. I was hoping they had come to their senses and withdrawn it. I've just given them a bollocking on the latest City Voice survey on the basis of wasting my time asking me questions when they are going to ignore the answers anyway.

Sounds like the op was told they will go on sale individually 9th,As I can't go to night games or afford 2 bundles for my son and me I'll be hoping for the best or. I'd be very surprised if many of the replies to the survey where pro bundle, I'd say they just ignored the survey
 
I also vented my frustration on the City Voice survey, particularly when they suggested a £180 starting price. At least they've conceded on that point I suppose.

The only possible reason for this bundle is to try to boost sales for the West Brom game because Villa looks to be almost sold out and West Ham will sell in 5 minutes if they put the tickets on sale now. The only reason West Brom hasn't sold out is because they've overpriced it for a Monday evening.

I'm disappointed with them for doing this. They have made the decision so late in the day that most of us have already bought tickets for Villa and West Brom. It seems that this is just an opportunity for others to queue jump the West Ham game.

Yes, I should read things properly..
 
"they suggested a £180 starting price. At least they've conceded on that point I suppose"

Right, £177. Based on previous experience £141 tickets will be like rocking horse shit.
