Match day ticket prices.

[Berkshire Blade]

Didn't buy a season ticket this year with work meaning I can only attend half the games, give or take, and Sky meaning I can't plan the games I can make in advance. Planned to buy a ticket for every game I'm able to make but the idea of paying £36(+fees) to watch Plymouth on a cold December afternoon, from behind a pillar, with some blokes armpit in my face, doesn't really appeal.

Sky will announce fixtures until fa cup 3rd round before season starts which is something I guess

W Had you not put that 2nd sentence, the one in brackets, I might've wondered if it was a wind up.
As it is, well done, you've proven that your mental age is about 14 anyway.

You’re allowed to say wanker mate don’t worry

Silly pricing which seems to be sending the message we do not want match day fans.
There's a lot more games on sky this season and ways to watch every game at home- legal and illegal.
I'm really struggling to get my head round the logic in this pricing. Cheaper prices mean bigger gates and opportunities to sell food, drink, merchandise and programmes.

Exactly, £70 plus for me and my daughter to go means I'll prioritise away games

What, where unlike last season (generally) have no £30 cap and, as a freshly relegated club, will likely draw higher/the highest category of game for those clubs that do that?

Last time we were in the Champ ticket prices seemed fairly reasonable tbh, definitely less than £46 fucking quid a ticket. Get a day out, decent atmosphere, and maybe even, god forbid, some vaguely edible food chucked in as well!

Lloyd Cole playing at the City Hall, no support, one man show.

Tickets £45 and £58.

Ryan Adams, one man show same venue.

£ 53 and £ 69.

Taylor Swift, hundreds.

You get what you pay for, Taylor Swift would never hit the first man taking corners.

When you only have a handful of match day tickets to sell because the vast majority of the ground is sold out with season tickets then the prices will make next to no difference to attendances/income

Not true Bramall lane upper does not have season tickets, so there's nearly 3k there alone.
I reckon there's 5 or 6 thousand seats available for non season ticket holders - hardly a handful.
Also the ground is much better with a full BLUT

best view in the ground up there but worst atmosphere non existent

There's also season tickets still on sale.

Agree mate tottenham like rest of the prem are a bunch of greedy bastards, and don't give a fuck about there fans!

We are a dying bread mate

 

[The Crab]

Too rich for my blood I’m afraid.

Over forty quid on the kop with shit facilities and every chance you’ll have to stand up anyway. Bogs flooded with piss, dodge the cokehead and the dickheads that don’t care which door is in or out.

Fair play to those that can manage it

 

[s20Blade]

Can only get to the odd few games now but at them prices I'm more then happy to just pay for a dodgy app membership to watch the games, probably only go to wednesday match.

 

[reedy63]

Do they still sell season tickets for the first half the season and then buy the season tickets for the second half of the season?
at least that would make it affordable if you can't pay for a full-season ticket like me. I am sure a lot more will be sold.

QPR fans being charged £38 for BLLT. Shocking that imo

Cheap compared to stuff you pay for in London

Must mean it's a Cat A then, same price for us to sit in the upper tier above them. It's on TV as well, they must not want any pay on the day fans.

 

[Super Furry Blades]

If you’ve not got a season ticket then you’re not a big enough blade to have a worthy opinion.

(with caveats for people living abroad etc)

Yes it is cat A per the ticket details released earlier this week. No it is not on TV.

 

[Blackheath Blade]

I think if Lloyd Cole played at the City Hall every other week with more the half of the shows live on tv he might struggle to sell at those prices .

I would imagine it would cause a right Commotion. I'll get mi cooart.

Fair enough it's not on TV, however my point on pricing stands. For me and junior to sit behind the goal for the QPR game is £59. To go away to Preston is £37 for both of us.

Yep, ridiculous pricing, it will cost one adult and a child after tickets, travel, food and a drink a minimum of £200 just for that day, shocking!

Wouldn't disagree with you on that one. Our match day pricing isn't cheap, regardless of others being worse. Frankly if I wasn't in a position to buy a season ticket, I'd be extremely selective as to which games I go to

 

[ancientblade]

non season ticket holders are totally disregarded by uniteds board its as though potd fans are being victomised for having the nerve not to buy a season ticket and its just not fair on fans who through differing reasons cant attend every game through financial work or family issues i just dont think prices have to be as high as theyve made them
