AtyeOrr Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I'm getting tired of reading posts stating that they are annoyed to miss out on the tickets but to be honest if your such a big true massive etc city fan then why the hell havent you got season tickets then you wouldnt have this problem? I really cant seem to sympathise with any of this utter crap, it was a case of try your luck this morning and the club could not of done anymore, the true loyal fans (season ticket holders) were given plenty of time to purchase theirs like i did so i don't see any issue, anyway rant over Up the City Always believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man In Black Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I was agreeing with you up until you said the true loyal fans (season ticket holders) Get your head out of your arse and realise that a season ticket does not make you the only true loyal fan. Otherwise yes, those without have to accept that they may have difficulty getting a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwas a ST holder `til i was 17, joined the Army, didn`t have a season ticket for 15 years, guess i wasnt a true fan during that period. Kids !!

I'm a season ticket holder, and attend most away games. But you are talking utter crap. Just because someone isnt able to get a season ticket doesent make them less of a fan Some people have personal reasons or financial reasons why they cant purchase one. They aernt exactly cheap are they. Thankfully I'm lucky enough to have one and have done for a while now. But think before you post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windmillhillred Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Let's not get into this whole I'm a super-fan and you're not stuff. There are plenty of reasons why people aren't season ticket holders. There are plenty of City fans who, for whatever reason, can't get to Ashton Gate every other week. What is frustrating people hwo have been to 10 or 15 games this season and can't get a ticket is the fact that we all know that a large proportion of the people at Wembley will have never seen City play before, and are going for a nice day out. You can be absolutely certain that they won't be at Ashton Gate next year unless we go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HambrookRed Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I don't normally respond to this questions, but oh my god today is not the day for it!!!

boltonred Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I live in Bolton and have done for 10 years. It would not be possible (either time or moneywise) for me to be a season ticket holder. I go to games when i visit my mam if they are at home and also go to all the north west (or yorkshire) games when they are away. I am a true fan!

robins72 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 The trouble is when tickets go on general sale ANYONE can get them whether they are a city fan or not!! Thus stopping real fans from getting tickets. So how do you combat this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesy Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I live 285 miles away!! So its not viable, followed the club since 1978. I try to go to away games and when I can, home games, otherwise I buy for my nephew who goes in my place. What a stupid question. What I find gutting, is the fact that people will be taking non Bristol City supporters, probably more than likely Manchester supporters or Liverpool Supporters and Gasheads. As i don't get to City games as much as I can I find it an insult but to City fans, who are on this board who get to a good majority of matches a season home and away, its sickening. Annoyed but not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do you think it is going to cost to go to wembley ? Well over a couple of hundred pounds in my case as i don't live near bristol or wembley, due to work i have had to move up to Manchester however i do have a season ticket and make every game as they are my team, at the start of the season i could not afford a season ticket however i made sure i got one via a credit card, i don't mean to pi** people off but its just how i feel as i make the effort from manc to every game which i find hard to afford but i do it for a reason which is beacuse City are my passion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boltonred Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I would love to be able to afford to travel down the m6 / m5 every other sat but sadly due to financial constraints and having a young family its not possible. it doesnt stop me being a true fan. I am glued to either ssn or pc or wap or radio on every match day (ask my wife it drives her mad). I have been supporting city since i was about 8 and i am so passionate about city its mad but i simply cant afford it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your all missing the point I'm not trying to insult anyone or cause arguments all I'm trying to say is that i don't understand how people can moan about not getting a ticket for wembley when they either say they cannot afford it or they have families etc why is that going to change just beacuse we are at wembley yes its a great day out but surely going to ashton gate every other saturday is just as good well it certainly is for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
