Sorry mate Im a member and have my home games in the bag just wrongly thought that rugby and baketball SC holders got into tier 1. Can't beat the club up all the time, but maybe they could have put those without memberships who can prove 4 or more home or away purchases into tier 3.

It's just clicked with me that rugby ST holders are entitled to a FREE Bristol City match ticket once a season. By claiming their FREE ticket has this put them into 3rd catagory and leapfrogged those who didn't claim it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or put another way, If somebody was to buy 3 tickets for themself, their wife/husband and 1 child, for 3 different games, should that give them an advantage over somebody who has bought 1 ticket for 4 different games? The purchaser has been to 1 less game but the overall cost and the money they have put into the club is signficantly more? Hypothetical I know but you see what I'm saying.

Up The City! Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 6 hours ago, BRISTOL86 said: Given that we’ve hardly ever sold all available seats in the ground, I’d say capacity is fine. How often does demand exceed supply? Pretty much never. You seem to have a real problem with the fact that the stadium doesn’t accommodate exactly 27,000 people, like you’ve somehow been lied to. Every club in the land has wasted space with segregation of fans etc. If we were a fixture in the Premier League then there’s an argument that 27k isn't enough, but there are no doubt plans waiting in the wings if and when that were to become an issue. 6 months ago people were talking about it being a ridiculous white elephant in L1. Let’s take things one step at a time! I'd rather we hurry up and did the Atyeo now before we hopefully get to the prem. Losing 4k of seats in the prem for a season would be a nightmare.

From a fans perspective i would like to see as many City fans in the ground as possible if we were to make it to the Prem so as many of our fans can experience watching City in the prem as possible. Also it would make sense to have boxes etc at the end to maximise our income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh1t_ref_again Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 So Reading Adam B's FAQ's you can upgrade a childs ticket to adults by paying the difference and can buy a consession season ticket which will count for priority 1 at a cost of £50 with a free shirt, so any body who wants to get an extra ticket just needs to have an under 12 they can buy a 1/2 season ticket for??

I was surprised he said that. That means a City STH can sell their child's seat to a United adult fan, or indeed anyone, who has absolutely no history of watching City. Do I have that right @AdamB?

Well it is the season card holder’s seat to purchase (it wouldn’t be paying the difference, they would pay the whole price as it’s a cup game). It is an 8pm kick-off, so it’s unfair to expect every child to show up (although I imagine most will be begging to go!). I would certainly hope that Bristol City fans wouldn’t sell on their seats to Manchester United fans. It would contravene regulations (both selling on football tickets and away fans in home sections) Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 On the lighter side, some chaps at work asked me about tickets following the draw...(They aren't City). I simply pointed them to the link of hospitality packages etc and sughested to them to keep their eyes peeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what parent wants to tell their child they can't go to football anymore because their season ticket has been revoked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
