I used to walk back to town and get a bus. Yes it started earlier but I still couldn’t have got back home until nearly 11

Me too, but society's changed somewhat from what I can see?

Do people really not take their kids to midweek games? I had a season ticket from 8 and went to every game midweek

Times have changed, kids these days are too weak, don't even know what sex they are....

 

[CV22SBA]

Why didn’t you just get normal tickets…?

I like where i sit and Its my ST and where other Family & Friends sit. My point was Championship football at every ground is far to expensive. Clubs are taking the piss and it needs the EFL to step in and price cap games like the Premier League do.

If you have 2 kids and follow city home & away then september is basically a £500 month for that when you add up tickets, travel and extras.

 

[rob9872]

Despite this I dont really understand taking the kids for them to not watch

I guess it gives him an excuse to be able to go and hopes that in time they catch the bug.

 

[NortonSkyBlue]

Is it half ten though I think I will be lucky to get back to Nuneaton by half eleven and that’s not that far

Join the supporters club and you would be back by 10.30

 

[GIMOC]

We Do.

do we?

that why it’s the first time in god knows how long we’re in the 3rd round

 

[Cobi Jones's Dreads]

I'd rather not have a few thousand Spurs fans all around the Stadium.

Anyone who wants tickets can get them now. Just ask a City fan with points to get them for you.

Yeah it was for my Mrs, who showed an interest in going, but logging on to see it’s £38… I’ve talked her out of going. Absolute scandalous pricing.

 

[Grendel]

I don’t understand the mentality from some regarding adult pricing for this game.

£37 is perfectly reasonable. It’s a top 6 premier league team - it’s the first EFL cup game I’ve been to for ages. Bought it as soon as they were available.

So you tell your Mrs. what she can spend her money on?

I think it’s called giving advice, when value for money is not represented. But thanks for the concern.

 

[wingy]

Going to be a lovely evening possibly shirtsleeves!

You talked someone out of going to a game? Fan of the year right there

How many we sold for this?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Over 15000

Ok, but the tickets are the normal Category A price for games this season.

We have not increased the non season ticket prices for this game.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

We've taken my daughters midweek since they were tiny

You’re cruel

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Yes they do just doesn’t happen to be he one they were born as, allegedly.

But the roads around the ground weren’t closed for 45 mins after the game finished. We’re in carpark A and it can be 11.00 before we get back to Rugby, far too late for 7 yr olds. Then I have another 30 min drive home.

Not by the semi final it's not.

 

[GIMOC]

we will be long gone by then. even robins admits to making changes for Wednesday

Not by the semi final it's not.

thin top for later when the sun goes down

Let me see your outrage at £37 for Norwich at home. A big team comes to town, and suddenly the world is up in arms despite it being cheaper than some league games this season. Do me a favour!

You all claim to be fans and want the best for the club, but also, you don't want to support the club, you just want piss cheap tickets. Engage the grey matter a little bit and you'll start to see some sense..

And how many city fans paid the £37 against Norwich? About 3K.

Cup games are from a standing start of 0. They're bonus fixtures for the club and traditionally priced a bit cheaper to encourage take up. It was always a stretch to sell out at those prices. We also have the highest kids prices in the league, this is bound to have an effect, and it has.

So if we drew Man City we’d need to reduce prices?

Cos of woke.

Well wanting them to be awake in school the next day.

No, it's about demand. People will pay those prices if the occasion justifies it, even if they don't like it. We sold out against Boro in the play off semi at full price.

The point that is being made is that the 3rd round of the league cup on a Wednesday night probably needed a more attractive price, regardless of it being Spurs. Some people don't see it as a big occasion in the way others do. And let's be honest, the crowd is down on league gates primarily because a lot of ST holders are giving it a swerve, so point proven no?

It's like Ipswich, as the same stage last season, while in the top 2, only pulled in 20K against PL opposition, and kids were only £8 - 10,000 fewer than league gates.

Was told today sales are at 22K, so it won't be that bad anyway.

I really don’t know why it bothers you as you’ve stated before you don’t go to early rounds of cup competitions.

it doesn’t bother me about the pricing - that’s the point?

 

[shepardo01]

From the other side!.
