Precisely , so for this game I'll watch on the TV. Let's see how many Aston Vile fans boycott their CL games with their prices of £85-£95 quid .
Precisely , so for this game I'll watch on the TV. Let's see how many Aston Vile fans boycott their CL games with their prices of £85-£95 quid .Then I't doesn't matter how much they charge does it? Ultimately the club knows that for all the online whinging people still go up anyway.
Not really, people doing it out of loyalty to the club, doesn’t make it right.
So it was redundant then.
I'm thinking of giving this a miss now.
Chances are Spurs will play a weakened team due to the Arsenal fixture, but will probably still beat us. Midweek, nights drawing in, on TV - £37. Not feeling it.
You'd expect it to still get a decent attendance, though it will go to general sale and I expect a fair few people who've never gone before will buy tickets because it's Spurs. We've not had a big name at the stadium for years and the last time queues for tickets were around the block.
I understand the issue with kids prices, but I think King will be thinking a lot probably wouldn't be going on a school night regardless so making tickets cheaper isn't going to make a huge difference on attendance. I'd be surprised if he wasn't trying to suspend the FZ for this one off match to sell as many tickets as possible at the highest price.
Also surprised he's discounted ST holders - surely the benefit of that is getting priority to book. You get your financial benefits from the. ST in the league games
& disadvantages those further that can't afford a season ticket. As a season tkt holder I would prefer to see 1 price for all.The one good thing about the price is the acknowledgment that season ticket holders are able to buy at a lower price. It encourages buying one and a reward for commitment and loyalty

Season ticke
......... and not forgetting that season ticket holders already get a huge discount on matchday prices as it is compared to those unable to commit to going week in week out.
So? Without season ticket holders we don’t have a club
Where did I say we should not have any season ticket holders?
I can’t commit to going to away games every week. That doesn’t mean I oppose those who do getting higher priority for away tickets.Season ticke

The question for ST holders is the same.
The away priority ticket holders don't get cheaper tickets though!
To clarify on this:
1) I think its great we have so many season ticket holders. Having over 20,000 commit to it has undoubtedly been one of the factors in the upward vibes around the club.
2) In return those season ticket holders get a significant discount on match tickets amounting to approximately £250 over a season. Again, given that commitment, and the positive affect on the club as a whole, that discount is justified.
3) The cups are different though. Many season ticket holders don't bother going to the non glamorous games, and for that reason I don't see why they should get a discount when we do get a glamour tie. Sure I read on here that Spurs fans have to be charged the £30 rate in line with that discounted price too? Seems unfair to me that our non season ticket holders should pay more than the Spurs fans. To my mind it should have been £35 across the board for 'all' adults.
As it 100% should be.Season ticke

That's fine for those who live in the area ,no good me having a season ticket as I live 6400 miles away.The one good thing about the price is the acknowledgment that season ticket holders are able to buy at a lower price. It encourages buying one and a reward for commitment and loyalty
In that case you'd have to pay the same for the games you can make as you do the spurs gameThat's fine for those who live in the area ,no good me having a season ticket as I live 6400 miles away.
Which is what I said!Season ticket holders have made an up-front commitment and put their money down in advance, often before even knowing what the fixture list is and if there are any games they can’t make. They should definitely be rewarded fo
As it 100% should be.
I can kind of get the point really, probably 10k season ticket holders didn't get to that one, but then it's another dividing line in economic arguments that are occurring more regularly which I don't think is a good thing for everybody?Which is what I said!
I'm fine with season ticket holders benefiting from a discounted match by match rate for league games. What I don't agree with is them getting further discounted tickets in cup competitions over and above other supporters, particularly when they have not been shown to commit to buying tickets in earlier rounds. If we had over 20,000 turn up for the Oxford cup game then obviously there would be more of a case for rewarding season ticket holders with a cup discount too but that wasn't the case.
...should definitely be rewarded for that.
It's a way to reward financial loyalty to the club. Tell you what, as neither me or my wife are going, we'll buy them at £30 and you can have them at face value...The away priority ticket holders don't get cheaper tickets though!

So everyone pays £37?
£30 top price, for all, seems good to me for this particular match. Excluding hospitality.So everyone pays £37?

I don't think season ticket holders should become adversarial with non season tkt holders. Proper City fans are all shapes & sizes and have different wallets & circumstances. All welcome. Surely we want to maximise the attendance for every home match.

Rip off Britain in actionI know someone that paid £70 to watch Villa vs Arsenal so £37 for a non season ticket holder isn’t unreasonable in comparison

You're dying on a weird hill here. People have an issue with what feels like price gouging. Tickets for this are 66% more expensive for kids than normal for a competition most don't give a f*ck about and for which we normally put out a second XI. What's your issue with fans questioning that?
Where did I say I had an issue? The first 10 bunch of pages were full of posters basically saying they were going to boycott the match. Now the majority have said they're going. Weirdo.
For people like you it will be.Is the ticket office open today?
