Man City

[Zesh Rehman]

why did their fans boycott their game at Bolton yesterday ?

 

[Bakesy]

Too expensive.

Too expensive.

bloody northerners

 

[Goring Gull]

Probably cheaper than the withers though.

 

[RM-Taylor]

They never fill the CoM Stadium anyhow unless they're playing the big 3: Chelsea, Man Utd or Arsenal.

Good, I'm glad they are taking this action, and Steve Bruce is having a pop about prices too lately (even popping at his own clubs prices), sooner they all come down everywhere the better.

I think Bolton is around £45 for away fans

 

[ali jenkins]

If im being honest, i would go and see brighton alot more if the prices were cheeper at withers, but i cant afford best part of £35-£40 for a day at the football!

It was £36 for the Man City game, usual less apparently.

I was looking in the West Ham programme and couldnt believe that some ticket prices were £50+

f*** me no wonder people are preferring to pay for sky to watch overpaid overpampered alice band wearing pansies formation diving week in week out.

My assumption was based on a WHUFC fan who had ravelled back paying that a few years back.

Market forces dictate prices are reduced

I've been to the City of Manc stadium a few times it being local to me. To be honest it doesn't take much for City fans to boycott a game. They boycott the majority of every home game they're at. Most don't get there till about 5 minutes after kick off. They leave for a pie about 10 minutes before half time and get back about 10 minutes after the second half has started. From about 15 minutes before the end they're looking for an excuse to leave. Something like a misplaced pass normally does the trick. Away fans outnumber home fans by full time.

Strangely, they think of themselves as passionate fans, but I guess thats in comparison with their nearest and dearest neighbours.

I don't understand why more fans don't just vote with their feet. Prices are high because so many people are prepared to pay them.

After all those years they told us how they were the real Manchester team, United have 60K odd season tickets, and apparently over 75% of them are held by Manchester residents. Man City can't fill a brand new ground, with fewer seats, I wonder where the Manchester fans go.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Chelsea charged Wigan's fans £48 each for the game at the weekend.

If I have to listen to another Chief Executive/Ken Bates type crapping on about how it's the style of football, or the diving foreigners, or the lack of goals, that's turning fans off the game, I will SCREAM.


LOWER YOUR PRICES, you greedy bastards, before the game eats itself.
