Fat Cigar Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I'm obviously going to buy my own seat, but think the prices are rather steep. By about £10. I know the club will want to make as much dosh as possible, but don't think they needed to charge as much. Priority basis seems fair. Manchester won't be happy with their reduced allocation, but this game means far more to us than them so can't be helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingswoodactor Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 2 minutes ago, ExiledAjax said: Yeh that seems odd. I'm not a member, but I do predominately attend away games. Maybe 3 or 4 a season compared to just one or two home games. No way I'll get a ticket for Man Utd, and no way will I be able to get to Bristol on the 20th. But still, seems odd to limit it to home members. I bought 3 hospitality tickets for the Leeds game if that counts towards anything? Might allow me to squeeze into Priority 3?

Quite fancy the Atyeo, is all! Certainly in ST holder priority periods for other cup games, you've been able to select any seat. I'd assume you could buy a seat in the Atyeo but you wouldn't be able to buy both that and your normal ST seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I think the club have done well here. Very pleased to see them putting City fans in the Atyeo rather than increase United's allocation. Hope now they'll do as good a job with preventing United fans buying home tickets.

This is where the loyalty points system we used to have would have helped. I've always thought that members who go to plenty of away games but fewer home due to not living in or near Bristol should be rewarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've paid money to watch us play either home or away in 17/18, and it's registered to your membership details, it should count as the same.

I suggested it a while back and got shouted down by a few on here but really happy they've gone ahead with it. There will be as many City there as possible now which is fantastic news.

cidercity1987 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I have a question re the 4 game member priority period... Do you think that is 4 games with a cut off now or will it include future purchases? I have 3 games and will be purchasing a Preston ticket sharpish if it includes future purchases.

redsontour Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Here’s a question for those ITK.. My son has a season ticket, he’s 6, he sure as hell isnt going to a game kicking off at 8:00pm, so can I purchase an adult ticket with his season ticket ID? Not that I think I’ll be able to offload it to someone if I get one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just note it says "4 or more tickets". Therefore presumably if you've bought four tickets, even if three were for the same match, then you'd qualify.

AlwaysRed Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 So in theory somebody could now go online and purchase tickets for the next 4 home games and then that would put them into category 2 even though those games haven't taken place yet? Or is it for games that have already or already will have been played by the 20th Dec? I am a member and have bought 3 home tickets so wondering if i book tickets for the Wolves game I would then become eligible? Hopefully not a dumbass question!

Whilst I’ll still pay it, £33 for the same ticket that was £15 vs Palace seems more than a little steep. I get the maximise revenue thing and I know that they’d have sold it out even at £50 a ticket but is a greater than 100% increase on the prior round really justifiable?

I guess it depends what Man United wanted - perhaps they wanted £45 per adult and we met in the middle. I think, all things considered, pricing is about right.

You can upgrade normal matches to an adult from a child's ST by paying the difference so I don't see this as any different. Still one bum on a seat isn't it, as long as the person pays the correct amount I can see no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be returning home on the 19th of Dec for Xmas with the family, so will try my damnedest to get a ticket for this! I think the pricing and priority brackets are on the whole well thought out for this game, but this 'home' ticket purchase history only is a bit off for me.
