    Interesting (because I'm boring) that the wording this time is

    "should the club revert back to 2015/16 concessionary model & pricing? Yes or No"

    Also noticed that the click here for more info for disabled supporters isn't actually a link so there is no information.

    Would it be the 15/16 pricing with no stupid restrictions?
    Because if it would be then that would be fine by me (even though mine would go up dramatically)

    Why would that be a bad thing?

    Hmm agreed.

    I'm assuming the consequence of voting no means you're voting for the scheme to stay as is, but that's not clear at all.

    The link doesn't work because that whole thing from the stadium layouts and prices down is an image.

    FFS.

    I agree, and I'm the same. Yes btw, it is, or seems to be.

    The problem is, I suspect, and the reason for this being done like this, that a lot of people will vote to save themselves money.

    We'll blame the Allams of course, but, reality is, we have a lot of fans who won't vote for an option that costs them money, despite us needing proper concessions and despite every other club doing it like that too.

    I suspect the Allam's genius and ground breaking membership scheme will prove to be popular after all. Which is a huge shame.

    Hope I'm wrong mind!

    I will not be voting. I voted in the last one in favour of concessions and I do think the Trust have the right idea in stating those voted for concessions just needed some tweaking to make them more acceptable. It is obvious Ehab has no intention of letting them go through. I have not looked at how to vote in the latest ballot but have noted others say it is just a Yes or No vote. I think if you vote Yes then you will not only vote for concessions but also for the ridiculous ID scheme stop and search fiasco. I would NEVER vote for that regardless of pricing. He is such a devious little toad he knows very well that we are in a no win situation and he has got one over on his customers again. Vile little so and so that he is.

    Yes.

    It's also not the same prices as 15/16, it's actually a bit more across the board, presumably because he's chucked a bit extra on for inflation.

    Yes you and everyone else should look and look very carefully. I did point out a couple of key points earlier, North stand adult price doubles, 35 quid fine for misuse of ticket (take note Chazz) must carry with you photo ID. no one else can use your ticket if you are unable to go.

    The bottom line is that even less people will vote for this, then Ehab will claim the supporters have been asked twice but no one cares about concessions and things stay as they are.

    I’ve just had a meeting in the Bet 365 Stadium with their Supporter Liasson bod.

    Since we went up together in 2008, with a similar fan base, they’ve left us way behind in terms of infrastructure & just about everything else.

    They may come down this season but I’m certain that, if they do, they'll be far better equipped to return to the PL than we ever will be.

    I was quite jealous at their facilities & supporter engagement.

    Made me even more pissed off at what the pair of ****s we have at the helm have done to our club.

    Another ballot? Rigged again? They can stick it up their arses. ****s.

    More like a KGB scheme. Most countries have an ID scheme which stop people getting access to treatment and benefits they aren't entitled to. How many require proof of it to get into a football match is a different matter of course.

    Just had a look at the figures we had a better fanbase. Their promotion season average was 16,823 and the two seasons before were 15,749 and 14,738. Our promotion season was 18,025 and the two seasons before 18,758 and 19,841. Typical City - higher averages finishing 18th and 21st than when promoted.<laugh>
    Since then of course their crowds have increased and they have extended the stadium whilst ours decreased and part of the stadium is shut. Shows the difference chairmen can make.

    Your absolutely right of course (I will properly study it before I choose my course of action though...my OCD wouldn’t allow me not to!)

    What are you doing then?

    Vote or not?

    Not eligible to vote, but i certainly wouldn't vote for what they are offering as concessions this time around. It's not so much the pricing but the other stuff to be very wary of. Saying that I think it's being done like this to ensure things remain the same.

    If there’s no concessions, you obviously won’t need ID to prove you’re entitled to a concession ticket.
