Crying Poverty, it was £12 Adult and £5 Kids!!!
Just another excuse, the truth is most of the stay aways on here coudn't be arsed going to the ticket office or picking up the phone to buy tickets. Season ticket holders get lazy as its paid for and requires no more effort after the original payment.
Balti said:The crowd was poor but then look at the empty seats at Deepdale who had a potential giant killing opportunity and at the swamp where they used to fill games like that. The Carling Cup is not a crowd-puller until the final stages unless it is a big game..rags/pool whatever. The fact that many teams play their reserves is a factor.
City should introduce a new category D for crappy early Carling Cup matches and FA Cup matches too. Give ST holders the match for free/ £1/ £5. Let them bring along their kids for a quid or an adult for a fiver. Charge everyone else a tenner. Lose money on the gate but make it up at the food outlets/ club store etc. More importantly generate a decent crowd and a better atmosphere and a sense of occasion which will in turn encourage the fans to turn up.
The very fact that the stadium is half full and the atmosphere is flat as a pancake is half the reason that many don't bother to turn up for these games. It's self-perpetuating.
And/or increase the number of loyalty points for these games to around 50.
Radical ideas required.

kiam06 said:24,000 , I know Fulham brought only 91 fans but still the stay away fans tonight should be ashamed of themselves. We have waited years to get some money and a decent team together and still have the fans can't be arsed turning up, it makes me mad. Even the club do there bit and reduce the ticket prices to £12 Adults and £5 for kid and yet you lazy twats can't be arsed. No excuse stay aways.
To all the people who stayed away for invalid reasons can I just say..
You are a joke
Don't bother turning up for the Premier League games, you don't deserve to be there.
