BIG D Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 “It is a tradition of many football clubs to offer early bird season tickets but I want to offer our supporters an even better incentive before that period later this year. Even better then. Well done DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluey9 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Yeah -let's all go into debt to pay for a recreational activity.... They'll be asking people to 'just' remortgage their houses in a few years. Nobody's forcing you to do anything mate Great value in most people's opinion Just don't come moaning next August, about what you're paying when you had the opportunity to see the match at a reduced rate.

Cersei Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 If people are that concerned by POTG prices just go and buy a season ticket on the kop. And this time you've been warned what's coming Why if you can't be bothered with 23 games? 23 trips to Hillsborough, it's not unreasonable to not fancy that.

Guest Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 When you look at Everton and Stoke, it makes our prices look even more insane! When you look at all the money all of those clubs are guaranteed from SKY then you can see why perhaps they can afford to let their fans have cheaper tickets.

Dick_Turpin Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 He can call it what he likes but this really is the early bird period. It's much earlier compared with previous years. Last year's early bird was March to April. I was surprised at the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
33 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 A bit disappointing tbh. Prices are no better than okay. 20% rise on last season's EB cost. Think 10% would have been fair. A bit surprised at the thought that they think they are doing us a massive favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 When people are sacking off gym memberships to afford a game a fortnight something has gone very very wrong with all this. DC doesn't get it, he just doesn't. By my calculations, if everyone who bought an ST last year buys one this year, it will generate 1 million pounds, which seems to explain the numbers thy have gone up by. That's 16k STs I have done a rough calc on. 1 million, matias cost 4 million, hooper will earn that in 4 months with us. I would honestly rather see our club survive with maybe ONE less player than 1600 fans coughing up out of a budget to watch football at Hillsborough every other week for 10 months. It's a matter of choice, always will be, just that nowadays there are more leisure choices. Would never even consider a gym membership if it meant not being able to affotd Wednesday games. These prices are £18, £22 and £25 per game. Is it really that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standidno Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Kop 1 year - 415 Kop 2 year - 810 (405 per year - saving 10 quid a season over buying a one year) Kop 3 year - 1205 (401 per year - saving 14 quid a season over buying a one year) Is that right? I'm not sure I understand this one and why you'd go for a 2 or 3 year option Someone explain it to me in simple english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Turpin Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Because you know what your paying. If you can't go to every game try and sell your ticket for games your not going to. Simple facts are these are reasonable and if you choose the POTG route you shouldn't moan because you know what's coming. Mr Empathy! Some people can't afford or justify a purchase of a ST. Who are they are going to sell their card to on a one off basis? Reasonable ST prices - and I think these are - shouldn't mean unreasonable POTG prices.

I am not sacking off the gym membership to afford the football though. I would rather exercise in the outdoors and spend the saving on a new shed at my allotment.
