Man City Ticket binfest/availability

[El Presidente]

Latest tickets available (from my rather crude approach of clicking on each block on the website)

North 206
East 600
South 266
West 651
Total = 1,723

The Albion have never had a 30,000 attendance in the top division.

I must admit I have a ticket in my basket for my 7-y-o but I'm thinking "£28? Really?"

I've got three children, all love watching us play, but I couldn't afford those prices. We went for WBA tickets instead.

I don't mind though, the club has got to make money to pay the players.

Since I first looked on Tuesday morning till now the ticket numbers sold does not seem to be very many at all , we all know it will be a sell out but wonder if the club are surprised at slow they are to shift at present ?

The level of demand for tickets will always be compromised by cost especially at a time when people are forking out for other things, holidays, days out. There will also be a lot of people away on holiday and therefore a lot of season ticket holders illegally transferring their tickets to others who therefore don't have to buy one. Disgusting behaviour.

You will never be able to test attendances in August for this reason.

I think those may be the figures for WBA

For how-many-tickets-left obsessives (and I am not immune to this) the new website allows you to get a list of all blocks with remaining seats - just click into any block on the stadium map and a "see more areas" button appears. This gives a full list of all blocks with availability.

Current totals:
N 115
E 379
S164
W 272

Total (930)

Quite heartening that the tickets are not selling out in a couple of hours as I had expected. I managed to get to 5 home games last season and am targetting four this season, including Everton and Manchester United. Took out a Bronze Membership to enable the same. If it continues like this I will keep the membership next season.

(its a bit awkward trying to choose seats on an iphone but needs must)

Bet had it been Utd and not City there would not be as many if any left.

Not so sure Brighton fans aren't used to paying £45 for a league game.

Surprised in the end to log on this morning and find loads of tickets available, so I got my four together, and could have done so in at least three blocks in the ground.

Excited, but my God the price. £50 for a ticket!!!!! Suck it up I guess

Says a lot i think that our fans are begrudgingly paying the prices for game 1. Not gonna be such an easy sell if we get caught adrift in the bottom 3

Capacity was reduced in summer 1979 due to the construction of the Lego stand and possibly yet another safety at grounds purge by the authorities.

No. One thing is clear from this: we're not going to hear any more talk of expanding capacity of the ground - not for a number of years,

I'm sure we'll sell out City or come close to a sellout but there are clearly not thousands of fans desperate for tickets. And if we struggle to sell out one of the top 6 clubs, we're going to find it hard to fill the ground for the likes of Watford or Swansea.

.

Is there some hope of doing that then, if the need were there?

 

[Arkwright]

Of course it will sell out, the game is ages away people were on holiday, give it a chance!

 

[Gwylan]

No, there's not. But that hasn't stopped several threads on the topic .... I don't think anyone will be starting down that path again.

No idea where you're seeing north stand availability because I've been looking every hour today with zero luck

Prior to which we had 33k plus against Palace, 32k plus against Spurs.... (from the back of my Goldstone Ground t-shirt)

The wings i believe in the corner 77 in N2A

If we still have tickets available next Tuesday, it'll be interesting to see what demand there is from the new "STH friends" window.
