If you haven't been, it's a great ground even though we'll get trounced. I 'enjoyed' the ground last season, just not the game.

Ditto.
Also the tram back to the city was easier as the citeh fans were celebrating and giving Yaya a cake.

Lower tier only on sale at the moment, but you can choose the seats you want

260 odd left in the lower which i did last year. Will wait a while for 2nd tier to open. Big improvement being able to pick seats though.

Oooh, wasn't it?
What's the point in picking your seats?
8 or so of our alcohol fuelled finest will try and stand in your three or four spots anyway.

144 tickets lefts in block 113
56 tickets lefts in block 114
It appears we have been given 3 blocks in the middle tier.
I am happy we can select seats as I have a young child so we have been able to select front row seats so his view is not blocked.
However, I think as it is guaranteed we would sell at least the middle and bottom tiers, the middle tiers should have been put on sale at the same time so those who are top of the loyalty scheme get the choice of the best tier.

Beware, despite being asked not to leave odd seats they are there so there may still be moving about done...

That is as a result of how the ticketing system work. Person A logs in and selects say 4 seats for self and family members. Before buying seats Person B logs in and selects 3 seats for self and family and buys them right next to the seats selected by Person A. Person A then decides they don't want the 4 seats he/she selected and only wants to buy 3 of the seats (or none of them because other seats become available elsewhere (say second tier instead of first tier). This can leave odd seats or groups of seats not bought amongst seats that have been bought.
Complicated for the club to get right. Not necessarily the customers fault if odd seats arise.

It's probably on Man City's request rather than ours, they probably have asked the club to sell the lower tiers first and return the middle tiers if we don't need them

Got a horrible feeling that this could be worse than damage limitation. City are going to put 7/8/9 past somebody this season. Its gonna happen.

Sounds fair. There are 7 available blocks and for a Saturday 3pm KO which is likely to attract a big Albion contingent you'd have thought the club would have been confident enough to guarantee take-up of at least 4 or 5 of those blocks as a given, offering at least two middle/upper tier blocks from 09:00 today.
Seems strange that they did not as I think this one may sell out, especially as a few fans (myself included) missed out on last season's fixture because of its midweek timing, as well as being another PL stadium to chalk up on the Albion's travels.
Will be interesting to see when they release the next batch, and how many blocks are made available, and where!

We stand at the games and the only tickets available when I logged on to purchase at 9:30 were in the front half a dozen rows of the lower tier, so whilst, in theory, that would work, it didn't.
