Yeah, I got the same. I would like to apologise to the club for slagging them off on this site regarding this issue. This is exactly what people in my position needed. That's a full and frank explanation of what's happening and what's being planned. For anyone who's interested, here's what the club are saying regarding tier 2, CB and East...........................
"These enhancements will be designed to provide those fans in the Colin Bell and East Stand Level Two with a significantly improved match day offering whether by means of an upgraded concourse, improved food and drink, better seating or improvements to the concourse TV network. The club has a clear idea of how these areas may look, but is seeking feedback from supporters to ensure the changes reflect the wants and needs of those using it. Fans will be invited to contribute to the planning process for this area. You will be contacted via email.......etc............"
"We feel it is very important to stress that the changes intended do not mean that this is a 'hospitality' product. It is not the clubs intention to bring in numerous non City fans and 'charge them the earth' as has been speculated in some quarters. Nor is it about accommodating only corporate clients over existing fans."
"We also feel it is appropriate to provide indicative pricing structure for the two areas in question in order that fans can make an informed decision as to whether to retain their seats or seek relocation to another area of the ground"
So that's that then. Lytham and I shall be eating prawn sandwiches and quaffing fine wine in our seats whilst you we look down our noses at the rest of you rabble.
Seriously, well done the club for putting things straight.
Has the world gone mad, ..............or is it me?
