Will have a pint thanks mate - understand your passion and I do admire it, but other people have other circumstances

Its IPA or Guiness if I ever meet you

It was a poor attendance tonight, especially against Premier League opposition and really reasonable prices. It's just not the same going to a match with a half empty stadium. Hopefully it's better next round if we get a home tie.

Will only pick up QF stage - has been the same since the dawn of time(60-70's)
That's a real shame, as cup nights (ala Hamburg) can be really good at City. If we could get some decent crowds, and a great backing for cup matches, it wouldn't do us any harm to get some momentum going.

Kiam06 - let me guess.....

You are single, you are young, you have very few overheads????

I'm not impressed with you saying to a fellow poster that "You do not care about Lincoln away in 1999"......... you, personally, have no right to judge what games people go to and what games people do not.

It's good that you are passionate

Its not good you call fellow Blues when you don't know their situations.

As I said at the top of my post, I'm guessing you are young with no family commitments.

Believe me, times are hard and if it boiled down to a parent spending £15 on a City ticket or £15 on their childs uniform for School........ thw school uniform would win, every day of every week.

Sorry if that sounds dull, or anti-City to you, but I know untolds of Blues who love our club, who are struggling financially and yet, they love OUR club just as much as you do.

Is somebody who makes it to every game more of a fan than somebody who HAS to choose their games carefully yet spends every spare penny doing so.....

Because THAT is loyal.

Believe what you choose to believe Kiam06...... will be interesting to read your posts in years to come, if/when your circumstances change

I'm just saying

Top post Carl. Kiam, please remember those of us abroad who are STUCK in the life of an armchair fan when if circumstances were different, we'd be there as often as we could. It killed me to give up my season ticket and it killed me last week when I had to cancel my trip over for Liverpool and Hull in November because of cutbacks at work. I'm sure there's more than 48,000 Blues that would be there EVERY game if certain factors weren't called into play.

For now, consider yourself lucky that you got to be there (Even if it was shit like people are saying), because there's a lot of us that would like to be in your size 11's.

Even though in your mind you are City's "uber-fan"!!!!

I am in a similar position, I understand the kids come first. The reason I dismissed the Lincoln was because the thread is about tonights game and people were just throwing in excuse to avoid the real question.

The club has done its best to lower prices and I think they are more than reasonable even for families with tight budgets, however I don't know your personal situation and respect you for doing your best to get to games.
 
Re: Tonight's stay aways should hang their heads....

we have a gazillion quid.
is £25 a good walk up price?
 
Re: Tonight's stay aways should hang their heads....

I went. Does that mean I'm not in you're little black book!

Seriously though, The League, Milk, Littlewoods, Carling, call it what you want Cup, has never been a top feature in the early rounds in most fans' minds.

It never has, and never will, generate huge excitement until the latter stages. It's the way of the world.

Most Premier League teams treat it as a run out for the reserves, which Fulham duly did tonight, so if the teams regard it as less than a priority, I think it's a bit unfair to call fans for not turning up in their droves.
