What about people who go away but not home games? are they less of a supporter than people who only go to home games?

Certainly not and hopefully you should get some.

STH get 2 just hope they only apply for what they want and not buy the extra to pass to mates who may never have been down, but hey ho that's life.

I agree and I don't believe anyone will miss out on a ticket but maybe they won't get their 'preferred' seats

All joking apart, I'm not all that in agreement with STH getting two tickets before others. It can work where people buy tickets for 'regulars' who are not STH's (for good reasons) but it could work against if they are buying tickets for people attending the event rather than the actual game :(

I know a few who only do away games (some people live away whilst others say they are boycotting the CCS) so I can se Liam's point. But it could equally be asked "Why would they want to come to the CCS for this game and not others?". If it's a 'principle, it's a principle! :thumbright: :ayatollah:

I am one. I did attend a few games following the rebrand but it isn't the same and I don't think it will be until Tan leaves ( supporters will return )

so yes, I attend away games only at the moment. I have considered going to the Man city game as I did miss the whole of the premiership season due to the red malarkey. :thumbright:

Paul, Initially yes, I did go to a few home games following the return of the blue but it didn't feel the same ( atmosphere etc ).
I am quite happy to admit it is purely because of Man City. In all honesty I probably won't go anyway, it was just a question :thumbright:

who on earth goes away but never home?



I very seldom do home games these days. Just too old for the 400 mile round trip week in week out and once I let the season ticket lapse I barely go. In fact this year I've only come home for the Norwich game and on that basis don't really deserve a ticket. I do however go to around half the away games and last night although I didn't go I bought 5 tickets as my son persuaded 4 of the University mates to go with him. But I don't have a problem with the rules, I know and its right that season ticket holders get the absolute priority. I clearly haven't got quite the enthusiasm of 94 when I sent my late elderly parents to queue up for the tickets - they were gone half the day. As for tickets this time well I should be ok as I know a plenty of ST holders.

The Norwich game guarantees you a ticket
Anyone who has attended a game at CCS is entitled to purchase a ticket from saturday

fair enough, but catering to the odd person who this applies too is a little hard to imagine is all.

im sure there will be plenty of tickets flying around, not 100% convinced we will sell out to be honest.

Not strange. It happens (although not by many) mainly due to living locations ;)

Ironically, some City fans do live away! :ayatollah:

No mate they were selling to family stand season ticket holders as well.

It's a joke all theses Cardiff fans going just to see Manchester city, because their sons favourite player is Aguaro. Fu@k em don't let them in I say. When man city sing your just here to see man city it couldn't be further from the truth with our plastic support. I would rather 15,000 there tbh.

Mate, I was there around 11.30 am and they were saying disabled and family stands only until Friday.
With the big queue it’s possible they changed later on to stop a revolt!

I wouldn’t say it was a big queue just a very slow moving one. Didn’t help all the chip and pin machines were out of order. But I got my tickets sorted that is the main thing :thumbup: :bluebird:
