People who have families etc - were working - live ages away, fair play, but if you aren't short of a few quid, live in manc and were not working, then it is a shame you didn't go. The atmosphere is very flatwhen it's only half full/
My only worry is that if we do get to a final, people with 4000 loyalty points plus will get a ticket even if they stayed away from the early round where as people who have only had a season ticket for the past few years (for whatever reason but for me it is cos I was away in Newcastle for five years and only been back in manc for 4 years and therefore only had a season card for the last 4 years) but have gone to all the early rounds will not. That bit doesn't seem to be fair - to me anyway.
Hamburg was a quarter final in a european competition and was £5. I'm pretty certain that crowd included several thousand who wouldnt normally go to any games.
And if we get to a final do you want the club to not sell their entire allocation but only sell to people you yourself see fit? Considering that was your worry.
If someone didnt go to the game simply because they just cba last night does that make you, if you went, a better fan??
The Game 77 said:I wish i could have gone last night but as a full time carer to my partner its very hard for me to find someone to look after the missus while i go and watch City.
I admit i can only go when i can and that's not very often in fact the last game i went to was the Hamburg game last year.
I would love a season ticket and but for one i cannot afford the £500 quid to get one as i only get carer's allowence which trust me for looking after someone 24/7 is peanuts its less than £90 a week.
And its taken me 2 months just to save enough for me to get the 3rd kit which i am going to wait in a queue for about 3 hours on saturday but atleast i got someone to look after the missus so to the person who said hang your head in shame.
No i won't i have supported City since i can remember and hopefully one day i will get a season ticket but until then i guess i will have to be a arm chair supporter
shut up you tit, some people cant afford to co to cup games but like myself have scraped the bottom of the barrel to afford a season ticket. which is better than a lot of people do.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.
