Supporters of Manchester City have initiated legal proceedings against the club concerning a new season-ticket policy that they argue discriminates against fans. The policy mandates attendance at a minimum of 10 league games to maintain a season ticket, prompting backlash from a group called the Trade Union Blues. They contend this policy violates the Equality Act of 2010, as it overlooks personal circumstances like illness and caregiving. The club, citing ticket utilization concerns, raised attendance requirements and altered ticket sharing rules, triggering discontent among loyal supporters who feel punished for unavoidable life situations.
This policy doesn't reward loyalty; it punishes people for being human. Illness, pregnancy, disability, caring responsibilities or working shifts could now cost you your season ticket.
The policy was announced by City last month, after season-ticket prices were frozen following consultation... It increased the obligatory number of home league matches a season-ticket holder must attend from 14 to 16.
