แดนนี่ วิลสัน กรรมการผู้จัดการฝ่ายปฏิบัติการของแมนเชสเตอร์ ซิตี้ให้ความเห็นเกี่ยวกับการกลับมาของแฟนบอลในครั้งนี้ว่า
"แฟนบอลของเราไม่ได้มีส่วนร่วมในแมตช์การแข่งขัน ตลอดทั้งช่วงเวลาของการแพร่ระบาด, ดังนั้น จึงเป็นข่าวที่น่ามหัศจรรย์ ที่เราจะสามารถต้อนรับพวกเขากลับสู่เอติฮัด สเตเดี้ยมในนัดสุดท้ายของฤดูกาล"
"สวัสดิภาพและความปลอดภัยของแฟนบอลนั้นเป็นสิ่งที่เราให้ความสำคัญมาเป็นอันดับหนึ่ง เราได้มีการเตรียมการอย่างละเอียดถี่ถ้วนมาเป็นระยะเวลาหลายเดือน เพื่อให้มั่นใจว่ามาตรการป้องกันต่าง ๆ ของทั้งพรีเมียร์ลีก และรัฐบาลนั้นจะถูกนำมาให้อย่างสมบูรณ์แบบในวันที่มีการแข่งขัน"
ไซม่อน วอล์คเกอร์, ประธานของ City Matters คณะกรรมการตัวแทนแฟนคลับที่ได้รับการเลือกตั้ง กล่าวเพิ่มเติมว่า "City Matters ทำงานอย่างใกล้ชิดกับสโมสร เพื่อให้แน่ใจว่าแฟนบอลทุกกลุ่มจะได้รับการจัดสรรตั๋วอย่างเป็นธรรม"
"ในระหว่างการพูดคุยของเรา City Matters ได้ยื่นข้อเสนอมากมาย รวมไปถึงข้อเสนอแนะในการจัดสรรตั๋วให้กับแฟน ๆ โดยพิจารณาจาก Ticket Point"
"เรายินดีที่ได้เห็นสโมสรตอบรับข้อเสนอของเรา และเฝ้ารอวันที่แฟน ๆ จะได้กลับเข้ามาสู่เอติฮัด สเตเดี้ยมอีกครั้ง"

How will the ballot process work?
Supporters who enter the ballot will be randomly drawn once the ballot closes at 11:59pm on Thursday 13th May.
The Club will send an e-mail to all supporters who qualify based on their Ticket Points, and all supporters successful in the ballot on Friday 14th May to provide further clarity on the ticket purchasing process.
From Saturday 15th May to Sunday 16th May, these supporters will then have an opportunity to purchase tickets.
Supporters who are unsuccessful will be placed in a balloted ‘reserve pot’ and notified in advance, by e-mail, of the ‘reserve pot’ and sales window.
From Monday 17th May, if tickets remain unsold after the 48 hour window has closed, supporters in the ‘reserve pot’ will have the opportunity to purchase tickets until such time the tickets are sold out. There is no guarantee that the opportunity to buy will be offered to the ‘reserve pot’.
We recommend supporters ensure their e-mail address is up to date and check the correct filters are set up to avoid e-mails being sent to junk or spam folders.
