The9 Posted 25 July, 2012 Share Posted 25 July, 2012 £49 and its on TV thats a disgrace. I'm not sure why it being on tv has any relevance, I'm sure City will manage to sell plenty of tickets to people who suddenly discovered their life-long love of the club since they got Mansour's Millions. It's on tv, so no-one HAS to go. Now if you'd said "£49 and they're playing a team who were in League One 18 months ago" I'd have probably agreed with you. FWIW, I'm interested to see if Saints take this opportunity to announce our home ticket prices, you know, now that we all "know" it's £50 a ticket in the Prem (and before Arsenal sell us two tickets for that price in a few weeks' time).

The9 Posted 25 July, 2012 Share Posted 25 July, 2012 You hope....!!! We're Arsenal's lowest category match, their cheapest tickets are £25.50 for that category, the away fans are in the cheapest seats and there's a Prem regulation that prices for home and comparable away areas must be the same. Ergo, two tickets for £51. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aintforever Posted 25 July, 2012 Share Posted 25 July, 2012 At least there shouldn't be much trouble getting tickets if you want one. £50 a ticket! I'm not even slightly interested in paying that to watch a football match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suewhistle Posted 25 July, 2012 Share Posted 25 July, 2012 £50 a ticket... hmm. But as I only get to see a few matches a season when I'm over I'm prepared to do so. I'll head up north, staying with various friends on the way and take in the match. Have a night out in Mancs on the Saturday.... So any season ticket holder who won't be going prepared to help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHITEE1987 Posted 26 July, 2012 Share Posted 26 July, 2012 I think this game will sell out. First game back in the prem is a selling point plus seeing the newly developed team against last seasons champions. There will be a good following for this even at that price. Even people moaning about the price will go. Nobody has principles anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even people moaning about the price will go. Nobody has principles anymore. I have been to alot of away games in the last few years, but with it being 4pm, on SKY, 4 hours away, a ground I have already been to twice and £50 odd quid just for the ticket, It's a no from me. Just doesnt make financial sense, I'd rather go to a few new grounds this year, including Arsenal a few weeks later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not get chance to get Arsenal ticket though, as I would imagine all tickets will initially be on sale to those season ticket holders who go to City, so there might not be many left for those who don't go to CItee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be massively ****ed off if I don't get a ticket for Arsenal, but don't really want to go to City and spend god knows how much money just to guarentee my ticket for Arsenal.

The Kraken Posted 26 July, 2012 Share Posted 26 July, 2012 Why do we give a bigger allocation in a 32,000 seater than City give in a 48,000 seater? Premier League rules state you must give 10% of stadium capacity or a minimum of 3,000 seats to the away side, whichever is smaller. So 3,000 is the default minimum. We allow up to 3,200 due to the configuration of St. Mary's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHITEE1987 Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 Just taken a trip round to the ground to get ready to buy City tickets. Supervisor let me nip out of work. Got to the car park gates and was greeted with a string of people queuing around the ground. Still think this will sell out. Just gonna get mine online now. Not interested in queuing. Was just trying to avoid the booking fee but hey ho. Oh whats this they now have a queuing system on the online ticket site. Seems it was destiny lol!!
