scarboro-owl Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Seems very steep, 10 second phase season tickets in the north would cost £6,000. So your basically paying £34,000 for some nosh & a padded seat for 10 people. never mind the seats, if anyone is willing to pay those prices, the whole room should be padded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowl Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I thought the season ticket prices were a Milan decision - that we needed to get money in quick. But with the boxes that must have gone through Chinsari - and I just don't understand the thought process. You'd like to think they'd studied the market and who we're aiming them at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horny owl Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I think this is potentially good news Chansiri knows we'll soon have quality on the pitch and all the boxes will sell Chillax people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyline Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 This isn't a good sign, is it? Should wait a couple of years after buying some good players before hiking the prices as much as he is doing. Would love to know who's advising him on the prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31Dec1966 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 It'll go through the firm anyway, tax dodge This is a very common myth. Myth means untrue. Even when it was partly true, it still didn't mean you wrote the entire money off. People who aren't in business seem to think business owners can get things for free by "writing them off for tax". They can't. They never could, and now HMRC are extremely vigilant in enforcing the stricter rules. I know someone who has a box and was very close to not renewing LAST season, never mind this! His share was £2,400 I think. I advised him to get a ST, join the Foundation so he can still eat in the ground, and for 25% of the savings I'll let him use the spare seat in my car.

WC1Owl Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 It's a calculated risk with a defined maximum downside, calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HirstWhoScoredIt Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 This coming seasons prices will have been set by MM and Paul Aldridge.... No they haven't. The club told all box holders that the prices were taking so long to be decided on as they were waiting for the decision from Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Be interesting if the chap i know who works for a company that has had a box in the past, though not last season, but was contemplating for the forthcoming season will now bother. Daft thing is they can struggle to fill for a Tuesday night game that isn't a local derby - they then fall back on a few freeloaders like me to fill it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animis Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 IMO this has shades of what happened up the road going the 'bates route' is a high risk strategy Possibly - they do need to advertise the long term though - like commit now and if we do get the prem you are guaranteed a discount package. Like others have said, it's not the short term 100 odd grand he needs, it's setting the tone long term, which will pay off if he plays his part and invests.

james o connor Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Another excellent way to alienate punters .... Bang the prices up for boxes they already struggled to shift.... Fantastic Wednesday marketing again ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
