owlZfan84 Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 If we make the playoffs, I can't wait to see what prices we'll put in place for the home tie. A/A* anyone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we'll all have to pay it, ST or not. Will be interesting to see how attitudes to pricing hold up then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckington owl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Christ. Imagine if we've nothing to play for. Be lucky if there's 22,000 there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohgoditsjames Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 It's the blatant disregard to the Charlton game that staggers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 It's the blatant disregard to the Charlton game that staggers me. Exactly this. Mr Chansiri put the challenge down for 30,000 against Charlton at £20. 29,668 turned up in response and made a very clear statement regarding this season's pricing. Then these Cardiff prices come along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohgoditsjames Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I've been supportive of nearly all his decisions but this is ridiculous. He wants more people to turn up so significantly more people turn up when it's cheap so he then goes and makes a very desirable game undesirable by making it expensive. There seems to be no middle ground between maximising revenue and getting more through the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Quite happy with the price I have paid for the Cardiff game and also happy with the price paid for the last game of next season, all on short term interest free plastic. Some say it's a tax on your loyalty .... Think about it ! Play offs to come too. It's all about paying in advance or joining the membership scheme.

The message has been out there for more than a year now ! Or it's about 22,000 fans turning up because people ain't prepared to pay the POTG prices (and can't/ won't commit to a season ticket/ membership). But, we've had this debate a million times. Lesson not learned, the prices are what they are, the attendances are what they are. Ah well, Mr Chansiri's club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingOwl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Thinking about it, I think more of a middle ground between the Charlton pricing and the final Cardiff pricing should have been in place for the Cardiff game. I don't think we should be just 'giving away tickets' at £20 for a game that could be so important & high demand.That said, category C for a game that could mean nothing could be a massive error.

The message has been out there for more than a year now ! I joined the membership scheme at the beginning of the season, and I've been more than happy paying what I have for the games I've attended - but I really don't see the logic behind these Cardiff prices.

Roscoe P. Coltrane Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I've defended the club so far on the price issue but I think they've made a big mistake with the prices for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 36 /43quid ......chuck in hopefully we'll have home play off game to fork out for and then even more hopefully a day out at wembley , thats a lot of money for the walk up supporters to spend in a 4 week period .....

BIG D Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Stubs from this game will guarantee you play off tickets. That's what I'd be doing if I was DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the point. We could have so many more there if the prices were what they were (or a little more) in comparison to the Charlton game. Regardless of if our play off place is confirmed or not.

Ever the pessimist Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Risky price if I'm honest. Be a sell out if we have something to play for still. Won't hit 30k if our play off place is confirmed by then. Won't even hit 25k if play offs are confirmed by then (or been missed out on altogether). At those prices I would be very surprised if it sold out even if it were effectively a play off decider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingOwl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Thinking about what I can take to the Steering Group. Obviously I'm going to ask the reasoning behind this pricing & what DC's thoughts were on the Charlton attendance & we he learned. But whatever reasoning he gives, the price will have to remain as people will have already purchased tickets. So what about a good will gesture? What would your thoughts be on money off the play off semi final home leg IF you attend the Cardiff game? Would work for the club as it would give people incentive to go to a game where we may have nothing to play for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortlandOwl Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I've worked it out loads of times and it will go down to the Carduff game. Sell out Not at those prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it being televised that would be a disastrous decision. Whoever the away side are their fans would doubtless boycott it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
