Mine was 259 I think. How does it work? Do you keep your usual home seat? There is no mention of that in the little black pack.

I've had a season ticket for 23 years and back in the day I never missed a game home or away, however as with City, life moves forward and you settle down and have a few kids and now I only manage all the home games, about a dozen away games and a few away Euro games when time allows.
Now I know a few lads who have had the invite and none of them are married (or have been married) , a couple of them still live with their parents (even tho middle aged blokes) and a few of them look destined to be confirmed bachelors.
So out of interest, what's the typical "superbia" background ?
Lots...and some. The europe aways prove that. Plenty of couples and kids!!
I dont agree with it and ive been invited (193 oooohhh). this is the thin edge of the wedge and the start of the corporate brigade. I dont have £2500 to splash out and think its a clever marketing plot to say to the home and awayer fan.....'ur a great supporter pal well done, we do appreciate you', making the way for the corporate lot to take up this 'chosen superbia package' to those with the money. if the superbia lot were really chosen...why would you be asked to pay £2500!!!
To be sucessful nowadays you have to bring the money in...this is what this is about...no issue with that, as long as the club doesnt disregard the 1000-1500 who always turn up away regardless.

got an invite. very nice, but no chance i can afford this and considering my seasonticket is in the south stand level 1 and only a 18-21 it makes no sense at all as assuming we have the same amount of games as this season i would lose out on close to £800! i'd only get kicked off the club plane anyway and i'm not really that bothered about loyalty points.
re: the background not missed more than 3 or 4 games anywhere in last 3 years, only 20.

That'll be a bugger. Have we really got rid of the 'typical' City. If something is possible City will find a way of achieving it!
Number 54.
Still undecided what to do. Could maybe scrape the money together (but getting married next month, reception in the Mancunian Suite!) and could do without it (also need to pay for the missus platinum s/t at £580 as well), I know I will spend close to £2500 on tickets if we do well in at least 2 of the cup comps but that's over 9 month period, but I'm a bit of a marketeer's dream as well and so would like to remain in the very top bracket as I'm on 8440 points now so at the moment I'm guaranteed a ticket anyway but concerned if the initial group don't take up the option they may drop it down and people will overtake and for games with limited allocations it could become an issue.

A marketeer's dream and a sucker :-))
