Webbo Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 My daughter has brought home a letter from the school today trying to sell tickets for City v Northampton. Adults-£14, children-£3. and under 8 free. Will everybody else be able to buy tickets at this price. I would have thought that this would be one of the bigger attendances of the season. Why would the club reduce prices for this game?

Asha Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Isn't these school reduced prices only for the 'community corner' which is in the family stand?
JakeShingler Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Isn't these school reduced prices only for the 'community corner' which is in the family stand? Who cares save my self £7 can not be bad.
Asha Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Who cares save my self £7 can not be bad. Can you put a price on it? No atmosphere with lots of younger kids going 'look look it's filbert....hey it's filbert filbert the fox' :w00t: all the way through the game? Good for the family side etc but not my cup of tea. I wouldn't move there if I were paid £7. Nice to see the club trying to bring more kids into the ground, but I wouldn't say I belong to a school and move there to save a few quid.

Or i could move to N.
Asha Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Or i could move to N. Am I wrong in thinking there's a specific section for such school kids, which is near the fusions restaurant side of the family stand? I'm not 100% sure. As for N, that became shit the day I got my season ticket there last year.

Asha Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 True but every weres shit except k/l.were do you sit? Top of SK3. It's nothing special but it's better than the family stand in terms of atmosphere.
JakeShingler Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Top of SK3. It's nothing special but it's better than the family stand in terms of atmosphere. Cool.and yes very true.

As far as I am aware you can sit where you want, my mates a teacher and informs me of when the Grass Roots schemes are on, I have been down to ticket office used his name, and they have let me sit where I want to!

Alright fair enough...I just (wrongly) thought there was a particular section for this.
fox123 Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 Alright fair enough...I just (wrongly) thought there was a particular section for this. I would imagine that if the stadium was more full they may restrict them to a certain part of the ground

I'm aware it's the normal price that's why I posted it so that people could see the difference. The fact that these schemes can be so easily exploited by those in the know at the expense of those paying the full price makes me very anti these community projects.

When our school did them I thknk we had to buy the tickets through the school, so it was easy to keep track of who was buying them
davieG Posted 30 September 2008 Posted 30 September 2008 When our school did them I thknk we had to buy the tickets through the school, so it was easy to keep track of who was buying them Yes but it's obvious that it's not being controlled and people nothing to do with the schools are getting tickets, the club wont be too concerned as it's obvious match day prices are too high and they are happy to sell at £14.
