Always Believesham Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 30 minutes ago, phantom said: Seems "we" held back selling the FGR tickets for some reason Perhaps "we" are doing the same for Birmingham? I read that as "more fans asked to collect their tickets at FGR than we expected" - coupled with home fans going to collect season tickets (incidentally a really good ploy to get more ST holders to a friendly),you can see the potential for problems collecting tickets. You can't control how many away fans want to collect at the ground - I don't think this was City's fault Have friendlies always been this well attended? This is the first time I've seen thousands of away fans across lots of different fixtures. You could say that we might sell more away tickets off the back of a couple of decent friendly attendances. It wouldn't surprise me if they are haggling over cost to away fans (home tickets are on sale), Reading did something a couple of years ago where they offered £20 tickets if the favour was returned for their fans. We didn't take them up on this IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really care about that, just annoying that we’ll have to buy Birmingham, QPR and derby tickets all at the same time. Where as the club could of put on on sale each week breaking costs down a bit for fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels a bit later than usual but maybe not. Agree with your point that a steward on a coach being the source of the info is a nonsense and is poor comms on the clubs part- dunno if the club will like it being leaked ahead of time though.

Think it is later than usual, Villa, Sheff Utd & Boro away tickets all went on sale a month before the fixture last season. That's just the one's I've checked.

That's just the one's I've checked. Thought it was- took a look at a few other sites and their away tickets seem to be available for clubs whose away game that weekend. Can only assume there was some sort of haggling about something. On a general note, I have no idea about coach stewards or the like, no idea and I'm the last person to moan/complain about a post but outing those who have leaked a date- like most businesses these days, the club surely has a social media policy for employees? Might be worth taking down or amending certain posts? We don't want to get people in trouble, as someone- possibly one of the coach stewards- doubtless told someone "offline" in good faith etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityred2000 Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 The person who told me isn’t always a steward, only on overflow coaches and also doesn’t work in the ticket office- therefore isn’t who some of you are suggesting.
