    The Culture Cup

    If City end up playing Liverpool and Ajax at home, should the club charge €100 for tickets, i mean City fans wont be going to it and the club should fleese the bar stoolers for everything they can !!

    Thoughts ??

    100 EUROS??? Not many people would pay that, even "barstoolers".

    People wont pay €100, we'll lose lots of money, it would most likely bankrupt the club to have Liverpool and Ajax over and have no returns.

    Charge €20 to someone who can produce a few ticket stubs, charge others €40 and sell the tickets at a City league game, max of 4 per person
    Oh no not them again

    Did a 'barstooler' bite you when you were young? Because you seem absolutely obsessed with them

    I wonder that myself.

    If City play Liverpool or Ajax or Sturm Graz, no doubt the club will hike the price, and rightly so, but if they were clever they would do what they did years ago at the Metalurgs game for Celtic tickets.

    €30/40 is the max people will pay to see a game involving cork city.

    for €100 they'd expect an easyjet to london to go see arsenal v united

    I think priority and better prices should be given to city fans (i.e. season ticket holders, or show 5 programmes/tickets stubs) and after that charge 25-40 yoyos per ticket.

    Liverpool and Ajax may be coming over but do you really think they'll bring their full strength sides? I doubt it very much.

    As for paying €100 per ticket......You're havin' a larf mate!! The most I would pay would be €20, the same as Inter-toto tickets last season.
    Football is life. The rest is mere detail...

    Any big Uk club will fleece city with their appearance fee.

    If city were more organised might have been able to have pre season tournament with scandanavian clubs (they have summer season too) but don't know if average punter would ahve enough interest.

    NEWSFLASH: Draw made todayfor this Cup

    Big names are now known....!

    City vs Kerry Districk League (will entice many of our Kerry neighbours to "travel")

    Rockmount vs Carrick

    Temple weren't invited as they were asking for too much money.

    Mouthwatering stuff - Ajax and Liverpool failed to qualify - beaten by Carrick and Rockmount. Kerry DL asked to play as they were up in town shopping anyway.
