    i use newsnow to get city-related headlines. one site it often refers me to is footballleagueworld. the trouble is the headlines look meaningful, but when i get to the articles they are almost insanely speculative and sometimes just list players that city "could" sign, usually when there's not a suggestion or even a rumour that it might happen. in other words, a complete waste of my time. anyone else used it? i need to stop newsnow looking at that site.

    A bit of photobombing from Sting at the back?

    Don't stand so close to me...

    The price to pay for huge contracts and greasy agents.

    Their buyback for season tickets is **** too. Reimburse £30 & the club resell for £92.

    It's the price of being in the ''promised land'' - it's shocking!

    They sell out every game. Those using illegal streams could not have gone anyway.

    They're selling out alright, giving two fingers to those that will have attended for decades but now some of them will face being priced out. Hey ho, modern owners. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    Season ticket wise they're not overly expensive in terms of Premier League football(I think there season books start mid £600's).Obviously their match day ticket prices are OTT.Are away fans charged this price?If so,I wouldn't be paying that.

    Bit like train tickets, cost a fortune on the day, reasonable in advance.

    Their season ticket prices have doubled in the last ten years (the biggest percentage increase of any Premier League club), but their matchday prices have doubled in the past three years.

    Considering they spent 3 seasons in the Championship between 16-19 it's hardly surprising their prices have risen with their ascent to the Prem.

    What's the price increase been over the last 5 years in the Premier League?

    As for match day prices,I've agreed they're extortionate.

    Know nowt tossers, most clubs call them that, and to most City fans of a certain age it's a season pass. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    Bollocks, it'll always be a season pass to me, and I suspect many others. :emoticon-0125-mmm:
