Premier Seating
Fri Oct 29, 2010 8:16 pm
Bottom line is the premier lounge is for the middle/upper class.
They object to selling seats to the average city supporter like myself.
The whole corporate exclusivity of being up there has a price.
In fairness these guys pay at 2 - 3 times more than the average city supporter to have the privelage of warmth carpets, table and chairs etc and feel slighlty agrieved that anyone of the street can just buy a
ticket on certain games and mingle with them,when for the rest of the season they wouldn't be there! (F'in snobs).
But kind of see their point to a degree as surely the corporate income is crucial to the clubs finances, why aren't we selling more of them!!. I for one hate seeing all those empty seats week in week out, but we have to consider the future marketing and financial implications of keeping the premier exclusive for premier people (cos their obviously better than the rest of us and can afford it and will pay top money next season!).
Personally I've been up there a few times and its a great view but absolutely no atmosphere, I love the Canton, you can sing your heart out and be embraced.
Up there you sing your heart out and feel out of place.
I'm sure PMG know the value of those seats and want people to pay top money for them.
We just need to move the camera's to the other side to show what CCS is all about.
To conclude buy early so you don't miss out, and be part of the heart of the city support and not just a rich observer. IMO
