When can non-existing holders buy one?

I just read a thread on bluemoon confusing things with how people expect some seats to DOUBLE for the season after nexts, with some seats at around £1000 for the ''premium match day experience'' with BOLLOCKS benefits such as free programs and parking spaces.

I hope that all the good seats aren't taken by the north standers relocating!

July 1st

Also the only place on level one you will get is the first few rows which get pissed wet through when it rains.

Level Two (going to be expensive in 2011/12) and Three (good view/terrible atmosphere) will have much more choice.

:-(

Cheers mate, been looking all over the site for ages now and couldnt find it.

It has nothing to do with our success by the way, its the first time in my lifetime that I will be able to afford a season ticket and POSSIBLY get out of working saturdays! Although most seasons I've been to 90% of the games anyway, I just want the gurantee of a decent seat; seen as games this season have sold out pretty quick and city put them on sale far too early!


Hope the club doesnt price out the loyal fans in the future or the atmosphere may get even worse.

Interesting that the Lib dems apparantly have a policy for safe standing at grounds.

If we lose tomorrow you can have mine! ;-)

Bastard! Im always the front. My dad wants a ticket at the back so he doesnt get pissed wet. Standing up is also more of an issue when im on bloody row c!

Nothing at all available in the 2nd tier in any case as of 4pm yesterday.

Once all the people that want to move to the North stand have shifted there are relocation windows for each stand before they go on general sale so existing SC holders (including all us ousted North Standers) will get the choice of seats before you get the opportunity. Also the prices for new SC holders are 10% more than renewals.

If you're looking for two together then I would guess that you'll get the option of L3 towards the middle and back at £532 or £550 or the wet seats in L1 for £550 or £566 or possibly some climb down on the North stand if they don't get the numbers they expect.

The word in the queue yesterday was was that L1 & L2 in the East (& possibly CB) will be going "premier match experience" next season and would start at the £900 mark

Level one in the east as corporate?!?! what the fuck! thats the only bit of atmosphere! City can piss off with corporate. Put them in tier 3! there not arsed about the match anyway. And they would shit themselves being near the away end.


What i find stange is the amount of empty seats/ and different seats I get into with my ciry card. Surely these are not season ticketed seats if Ive been sitting in them this season. E.g. middle of block 109.

If you get in early enough with a Citycard then you are almost guarenteed Home Tickets in reasonable seats. I'd recommend a Seasoncard, though. Pay up front and you've not got to find the money throughout the season - and they do save you money. The average cost of attending a Match will be £20 or so.

The jury is still out on whether I'll get one. I've briefly thought about the £250 option - but I just can't sit in East Stand Level 3, Row ZZ. They're never going to be anywhere else.
