@owlstalk Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I don't really see the correlation between prices and performances. Saying that you're unhappy paying £39 because the team didn't put in a great performance at the weekend means you don't really understand football, otherwise people would be expecting refunds every time the team plays badly. You pay the ticket price to watch the team, not to watch the team play to your liking. PLUS If you don't go to the next game because the team put in an average/poor performance, then the law of averages would mean that you're going to miss some of the best games and goals too Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I like nice red wines. There's one I really like but someone bought the vineyard and has invested millions improving it. The wines have gone up in price as a result. I keep emailing the new owner telling him I can't afford it anymore and that he should return to the price it was in 1970. He won't do it though. What should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke97531 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Spot on.. The festive games were all cat C or D. I wish people would shut up about bloody a one off twenty quid game on a Tuesday in Jan. For starters we had two ten pound games a season under Milan - now it's 20 and on a Tuesday so part of the massive uplift. 39 quid, against Brentford. Ask anyone but an ST holder ironically enough and they'll tell you it's mental. Tell a PL club supporter, it's cheaper to go to the etihad, and if it's about all the extra tv moment my then why aren't league one clubs charging 59 pound a ticket?

danblakemore Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just do what I do. Accept you can no longer afford to go and just wish the team all the best. I no I can't afford it any more, I might pick one or two games but that's it. I wish us all the best but for me it's all about watching the highlights in tv now.

owlsdreamer Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Still annoys me today of these ticket prices, went to book burnley & Brentford tickets but at £39 it's simply to much. Cost me £13 to go to reading & after that performance on Saturday I really can't see me spending £39. I'm all for positives and really am proud of how Wednesday are doing, but these prices really need altering surely? Sorry about the negative, up the owls! What annoys me is this continual bitching about prices. The strafford walk up every week for a tenner days to watch a pile of sshit are over. Quality side being built now ready for the prem. Even bitching about price of membership when it was pointed out how to get in for under 30 quid FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 You can get a ticket for the Burnley game for 28 quid if you were a member, So saying it will cost you 39 isn't really correct is it? That's good value to me considering its an important game. You have to remember that when people are whinging about tickets they price the most expensive ticket in the ground without a membership. Oh, and don't forget to call it Division Two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best football in years, watching class players not only put a shift in but play great stuff and score great goals, but still folk moan. Like I've said before Sheffield "owt for nowt" mentality.

UTO1867 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 What's the point of the club reducing the tickets. They brought them down to 20-25 quid a few times over Christmas and it still didn't put anymore on the gate. I find it hard to believe that people can't afford a season ticket at £25 a month on finance/MasterCard. The £39 price on the gate surely as got to be an incentive for people to get a season ticket?? Trouble is that presumes quite a lot of things, not everyone has a credit card, not everyone can get finance, not everyone can afford a season ticket outright and not every supporter lives in Sheffield where they can get to every single match. Biggest season average gates in the last 10 years were when we was in League One and it was £17 on the day, seems to me it is price over club position for larger crowds while Wednesday are in the Championship or lower division. Even if you are the most hardcore supporter on planet earth you have to admit £17 to £39 in 3 years is some shift, its a 129% increase in price!

I'm all for positives and really am proud of how Wednesday are doing, but these prices really need altering surely? Sorry about the negative, up the owls! Two points to make. 1. Last 8 games we have won 6, drawn one and lost one (to the top side). Scored 16 and let in 6. I would love us to play like the Brum and Wolves matches every week, but football is not like that. I cant wait fir Burnley. Im not expecting we will play like Barca, but I know it will be a white knuckle game full of pressure, excitement, frustration and stress. 2. Seventy quid fir me and two 11 year olds in the South. I think thats ok. Bit steep, but ok. I dont think anyone should use form as a reason not to go at present. The past 15 years maybe!

Cersei Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Membership saves you 20 quid after 10 games. I have one, it's still a rip off. 10 games to save 20 quid. 360 quid basically to save 20. About 3.5% saving is that? What a flipping bargain eh, almost the cost of an ST as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 But better than previous seasons when it was £20 to save £2 a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
