"Manchester City" club fans want to express their discontent with the ticket policy of the club's management in a unique way. They have called for not occupying their seats for the first nine minutes during the match between "Manchester City" and "Leicester" in the English Premier League (EPL).
Why exactly nine minutes?
This number represents the number of the club's external partners. Fans are particularly unhappy with the contract made with the Viagogo ticket agency, emphasizing that the prices of tickets sold on these platforms are artificially inflated. They noted that this situation deprives real fans of the opportunity to support the team in the stadium.
Main demands of the fans
Fans are demanding that the club not artificially inflate ticket prices and restrict the resale of tickets through various platforms. They want to have open communication with the club's management on this matter. Therefore, the "Manchester City" management plans to hold an urgent meeting with the fans' council after the match against "Leicester" on April 2.
During this meeting, the fans' protests and demands are expected to be discussed, as well as the ticket prices for the next season.
Impact of the protest on the club
"Manchester City" fans have been active in supporting their teams for many seasons. If their demands are not taken into account, the relationship between the club and its fans may become strained. Additionally, the fans' protest campaigns could lead to a reconsideration of the team's marketing and sales policy.
At the same time, the club's management should take the fans' protests seriously and try to find a solution to the problem together with them. Because without real fans, a football team cannot be fully powerful
