I am slightly amazed some people think they should be able to buy more than one ticket so they can take along some part timer who is only interested because it's Man U in place of someone who is a genuine Bristol City fan. I hope the club find a way of making sure tickets are only usable by the people they are sold to. Anybody selling them above face value should be shot. Or there 'ands cut orf.

old_eastender Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I remember watching playing Man.Utd at home in 1974, the old 2nd division, and John Emmanual (city midfielder) scored the only goal from 30 yards. A repeat of that score line would be great :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must be talking a full Tilson here. #dough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheapest adult half season ticket £199 + £35 ( man utd ticket) , so some people will spend £234 just to watch man utd?! But hopefully if we can get more people to the gate through half season ticket sales it's got to be a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More fool me for following So the club reduced prices for earlier rounds but you want the same for a game against probably the biggest club in the country. The club has to maximise as much as possible , it all helps with ffp. Plus some people are never satisfied . Don’t you think it’s ok for the club to generate a bit more money considering Lansdown has just spent £45m renovating the ground ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 People moaning on Facebook I've noticed tonight as well. Most common complaint is that they don't understand why you can't get 2 tickets per season ticket (hmmm I wonder...), and secondly, the price. Personally I think the club have got it spot on in both cases. Price: If you can't charge that amount for a quarter final cup game, against arguably one of the best sides in England over the past 25 years or so, then when can you? They're also not that bad a price. One ticket per season ticket: From a person that hasn't had a season ticket for about 9 years because of location, I can't complain much when things like this happen. It was also to be expected. My wife's cousin has a couple of season tickets, and if his dad doesn't go with him, then hopefully I'll be able to go in his place, as we'll be in Bristol for Christmas anyway. If not, Sky Sports it is. Well done to the club for getting it all right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but many who bought those memberships will be unlucky? No brainer from club to attach perk of buying a half season ticket to gain top priority for man utd game.

Nah, actually, it’s more because he a) has little interest b) would have me on edge all night and...here we go lighting the blue touch paper people...c) the language around me fking sucks and I don’t want him exposed to it. Now, that’s my choice, but having heard kids of only slightly older F’ing and blinding it’s a choice I made rightly or wrongly and the reason that, despite having a season ticket since he was 2 he has attended only twice. Now, some people may get upset he hasn’t attended, but the ground has been sold out exactly once since he has had a ticket, so I am comfortable I am not denying anyone a ticket week in week out...plus I’m rather fat so sit on two seats anyway. To be fair, I’ve missed half the games this season due to being overseas, but that’s a luxury I get with being fortunate enough to be able to afford a few season tickets.

hantsred Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 to confirm ticket prices have to be mutually agreed with United 23.1 Immediately after the draw is known the two Clubs concerned must mutually agree the prices. All questions in dispute must be immediately referred to the Management Committee for settlement. https://www.efl.com/clubs-and-competitions/carabao-cup/about-the-carabao-cup/carabao-cup-rules--regulations/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 My concern is if people are buying half season tickets just for this game are we going be sat in a stadium for the rest of the season with attendance figures of near sell outs with thousands of empty seats and nobody able to buy them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
