How can Owls fans protest against the ticket price hike?

[Guest alexshadowplay]

After Chansiri's decision to make the fans foot the bill for some of the transfers, what can the fans do to protest against the unreasonable hike? Also, will other clubs hit back?

Here's a look at the situation, opinions v welcome.

Oh look another one.

[belfast owl lad]

fact is,£39 to watch championship football is way too much.

Jesus, not another ticket price thread.

Poor family facilities ? Didn't we just get an award for being family friendly ?

Why does everyone just quote the kop price? The kop hasn't been particularly popular since it was seated. £46 for me to claim my accustomed seat amongst the landed gentry. I won't go on principle. Will watch St mirren and scunny games though. When crowds drop go 14,000 we will see some back pedalling.

Yes you must be a pig, because of you stating the obvious about ticket prices being higher than most teams in the premier league, and higher than our rivals in our league who are spending and going for it

[killamarshtrekowl]

Simple. Don't go.That's what I'll be doing!

[Paddyowl]

God....I'll be glad when the season starts, maybe we'll be talking about football....just for a change like..

[Andrew_Owl]

Thing is 95% of people who were going to go before will still go. Now the people who were never going to go anyway have an excuse.

The best way is to stay in the pub on match days spending your money on beer instead while the rest of us go and watch what could well turn out to be the best side we've had in over a decade.

It really is that simple.

Can't believe Chansiri didn't choose the magic beans option for funding transfers.

[notts0wl]

The answer is bring back standing seats, nice and cheap, fit more in, get more money, simple.

[notts0wl]

What Chansiri might realise from the Bristol game is that, if you charge 39 quid for a ticket but half as many fans pay on the day, 

you might as well charge 25 and make more money, keep people happier.

The fact is, success will dictate if the prices are too high or not.

The club HAS to increase revenue. The main way they can do that is by ticket revenue. If the football on the pitch is entertaining, and we're winning games, the attendances will hold (maybe increase) and the decision re. The ticket prices will be justified.

But it is very much dependant on the football. If we start slow, then there'll be real problems with attendances & ultimately revenue.

Chansiri will know this, hence why he'll do everything he can do to get the players into the club, the maximise the chances of achieving the success the attendances will need.

Don't go. It's the only protest that will actually make any difference.
