BCFCGav Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 I don’t think we’re on any main channels, will Robins TV be showing this one? Can they with FA Cup fixtures? I know they could during lockdowns but not sure that’s still the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazred Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Think i read it's being shown internationally so could well be a dodgy stream or 2 about. Nothing live domestically as far as i am aware 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 One thing worth remembering for those outside the RB area is that commentary should be available via the BBC website as it`s not a league game. You will need to access it via the BBC Football main page though and not the RB one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Just to add BBC radio London will also have THEIR totally biased own commentary of the game, if their is a problem with the Radio Bristol There are six other FA cup games kicking off in and around lunch time The icons on each BBC local radio station appear very late on the BBC web site,so be patient for the icon/s to appear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHRIDGE BCFC Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Hardly a suprise regarding low ticket sales. A team in our own league, just after Christmas and with all what's going on virus wise the prices were verging on ridiculous! Shame really as they probably could have got around the12k mark if the pricing was a bit more sensible? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame really as they probably could have got around the12k mark if the pricing was a bit more sensible? I guess the club think the prices are pretty good compared to a walk up price, but fail to acknowledge that 80% of supporters are season card holders who won't see these prices as such a good deal. And given that U12/U19/U22/Adult prices are £1/£5/£10/£22, I don't see the average income per ticket being much over £10 anyway. Let's say they sell 4,000 adult tickets at £22 (including Fulham fans), if they set the top price to £15(£12) they'd need to attract an extra 1,870 (3,330) adults to generate the same ticket income. It goes without saying that there would be an intangible goodwill benefit from setting low prices as well. I'll decide on Friday whether I'll be attending in person. I only live around the corner so it would be less hassle than a jittery hesgoal stream for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denbury Red Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I really think City have completed missed an opportunity to give something back to their supporters. Cardiff are charging £10 for adults (season ticket holders) for any seat in the ground. They are playing Preston (another Championship club). I drive up from S Devon with two of my children (both adults) - so when the ticket prices were announced for this game - much to my annoyance this was just a non starter! Feel totally let down! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the money spent inside the stadium/fan park on food and drink, club shop etc by the extra fans that attend. I won't be going so that's £65 ticket money and probably another £30/40 spent in the concourse on beverages they'll miss out on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I would have gone, but left ticket buying late. Now I’ve tested positive on an LFT - which I more than likely picked up at the QPR game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHRIDGE BCFC Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Also and i don't know how easy this would have been logistically, this would've been a perfect opportunity for City fans to reward the fans who didn't ask for their season ticket money back during covid with a free ticket for this game. I know we've just lost a shedload of money in the recent acounts but surely it wouldn't have cost the club too much and a fine gesture for the fans generousity? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NcnsBcfc Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Yep, strange pricing structure by the club, on the basis of the amount of home games in the last few weeks; and of course the expense of Christmas No doubt our Chairman will be on the club site at some stage to justify it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
