My brother got the impression from the season ticket survey that the club were angling at a season ticket price rise but for that price it includes all cup games.SWP's back said:Bill, was chatting with a mate. Would you welcome city bringing in the rule the rags have regarding automatic buying of cup tickets? I have anyway with the cup direct scheme. But would that be a step too far for our impoverished support?
If you were forced to pay you'd probably go too. When they can opt out, 30k go missing e.g. against Wolves in the Carling Cup.de niro said:yeh a good crowd to be fair but not 74k, they show us up thats for sure.

I'd pay it. Haven't missed a home game this season so I'd probably even save some money.SWP's back said:Skashion said:Was having same chat today.

That's what my suggestion was in the free text bit. £100 quid extra but all cup games. Job done

It's worth it.
would move tomorrow but family ties keep me down south

Take in to account the f.a cup is the more 'glamourous' of the 2 competitions yet their attendance against Wolves nearly doubles what we had today. It's a joke and no excuse on here is good enough
good shout Authur!arthur said:Tattooedcityfan said:But don't forget today was the first of 5 home games in a 2 week period, i went today and have tickets for Aris,Fulham and Wigan and will go to the Villa game,some people will have looked at those games and only been able to afford to go to maybe 1,2 or 3 out of the 5, notts county would be bottom priority if i was in that position.true some fans will always stay away when it's on the telly whether they can afford it or not, fact of life, price of football now means 5 games to pay for in 2 weeks is a very expensive thing to do,i do it cos i fucking love my club and it would tear me up inside to miss a game.
A bugbear of mine ... instead of paying players £250,000 a week and spending £20m - £50m on transfer fees ... cap wages and fees across the Prem and have a maximum entrance fee of £20 a game ... Give our National Sport back to the people ... The ridiculous cost of a CL ticket for Wembley should be the last straw for everyone

I was there as always mate, there was at least 68-70,000
