Guest Red 66 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Just a warning to those who are waiting to see if City make it to the Premier League before purchasing season tickets for next season. don't come moaning if you cant get one after Sat. By my reckoning we have sold in excess of 12k so far with City probably making maximum 15k available for sale. Could well be a mad rush early next week for the last 2-3k. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !

myol'man Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 its ok, they'll be on sale on Ticketmaster at 10am this Sunday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketh2nd Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 On the offical site they have announced that on friday it will close for the outcome of saturdays game and basically if we go up they are going to be without saying it in words "rising the prices" so unless I got the wrong end of the stick I really wouldn't wait and show your loyalty if I could afford one I would have.

jambodinho Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 If we don't go up i'm sure we might see a few season tickets being flogged on ebay by people that bought them when it looked like we were heading for automatic promotion. I know a few people that have bought season tickets when they first went on sale because we looked likely to finish in the top 2 and they havent been up once this season. Although it annoys me that so many Man Utd and Liverpool fans around here are now claiming they have always supported City, its kind of funny to associate 'Glory Hunters' with Bristol City. Its only a term i had only previously used when talking about Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea fans. It's nice that new fans are jumping on the City Bandwagon but with very few tickets likely to be available to non season ticket holders next season if we make the Prem, it is going to be increasingly hard to get a ticket.

jackorack Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 are season tickets holders alowed to change seats a few times over the season. For example if say one match i wanted to sit in the ateyo with a mate rather than another stand with the season ticket? Or do i have stay in that seat all season? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jgsmuzzy Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 At least bcfc have, in their charter, a rule that says that at least 5% of home tickets will be offered to non season ticket holders. In theory, you will always have a chance to see City, even if they sell the maximum amount os season tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Penny Red Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Me, my mum, my dad and bruv-in-law all bought STs on Tuesday. We've been to all but 2 or 3 home games this season and sit in B block in the williams (the library ;-) (note to self - must sing louder!!) To keep this tradition going we've bought our ST's there but could not get any seats together - are sitting in 2 sets of 2, one behind the other - thats the best we could get unless we wanted to be in row Q!! As it is we're in rows H,K M & N!! Reckoned its the only way we could guarantee a seat, where we wanted it, all next year and am absolutely chuffed to bits, prem or no prem!!! We'll be there whether its Man U or Swansea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful, people might think you only bought an ST on the hope of the premier league and are not interested otherwise ! Enjoy. I did buy my 5 season tickets hoping for premier league football, it has cost me £1000 so i don't care what people think. If we stay down then I'll still go but will be dissapointed. I went twelve times this season, I don't have to worry what people think. If we stay down I wouldn't have needed a season ticket and would have just ordered tickets, I've never missed out. So to finalise. I did by my ST in the hope of Prem football, anyone who has bought the last few weeks who say's different is a liar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone buying there season ticket after saturday (if we win!!) is guilty of only watching us cos we're in the Prem so none of them should have any kind of preferential treatment.

I agree with what your saying i renewed mine ages ago becuase i don't mind what league were in but, to be honest i'd rather have people in the ground who have an interest in city and are going to make an atmosphere rather than people coming and sitting down to watch Ronaldo et al.

Who is in the closet ? I sat in Williams block l with my two kids 12 times this season. I like most others cannot afford to pay £1k on a family season ticket but that is what I have done. Who are we to critcise people who wantto get a ST in the hope of watching united, Liverpool, Chelsea etc...... We are mad keen Liverpool supporters but we live in Bristol and are over the moon with the job GJ and SL have done for our football. Premier league, jesus I hope so, the wife nearly kiiled me when I told her what i'd done, don't worry I said I got you a ticket as well........game over, she went mental!!!!!!

Shane, I think there is truth in what you say, in fact to a certain degree I am guilty of it....I have bought season tickets for both my 2 boys for next year already (on top of existing one) but would probably taken them on a match by match basis if I had known we were going to be in the championship. I wasnt going to take the risk of them not being able to see any football next season if we go up. I said to them (11 and 9) we might still be in the championship next year, they couldnt care less just very proud to be ST holders like their Dad.

Guest shane Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 My son is 9, My Nephew is 9 and my youngest is 6. The two 9 year olds came to every game with me this season and ANFIELD twice ! My deal was 2 adults and 2 kids for £965. Not sure who the other adult is for !! I also got a free Under 7s tickets, he hates football but things could change, plus if we go up his seat is available to me every week and an adult can upgrade the tickets without any hassles. If (please god), we win on Saturday getting tickets next season will be a nightmare for those without season tickets. Thankfully for me it won't be.

You didnt buy a ST for next season because you couldnt afford one. Yet, miraculously, when it transpires that we are Premier League bound you can fund even more for a ST than it would have cost you after the Preston game!! Doesn't add up to me. And if you read the thread properly I am not saying I have a god given right to watch city - infact quite the opposite. I am saying those on the database shouldn't have a god given right over 'average joe'. Read properly before you dish out "####". You ####!!!!!
