That wouldn't be a reason to complain about the price increase though. If only buying it to support the club then that's their choice. If that's the case then it would never make financial sense.

Why would anyone consciously and unnecessarily 'contribute to the club' which is owned by a multi millionaire businessman whose sole aim is to get to the Premier League, for him, and him alone to benefit financially? Must be mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Think the categories are right but having cat A for the first match is ridiculous. Cat A should come out for last home game when we are crowned champions only! Most matches should be cat E and D. How do prices compare to other clubs, like Derby and Brighton?

However I think the pricing is spot on, the season ticket looks great now and it's clear that Chansiri wants as many as he can to get st/memberships Season ticket numbers will be capped for next season.

Is this cap just going to be on the early bird prices or on season tickets altogether? If so, I don't get it but maybe I'm missing something?

LOWVALLEYOWL Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 1 hour ago, fpowl said: Be a lot moaning again when they can't get a Wembley ticket. whats £50 to support your club financially plus it gives you all the discount back when you go to a game plus on the priority games you have more chance of getting tickets. people who moan at this really can't complain if we get to Wembley again and they can't get a ticket and you know it will be much harder next year with more season ticket holders more members and more people going to games. its only £50 you need to save about £6 a week before the season starts no excuse What of there is a family of five going not £6 a week then is it, I have a season ticket so it don't affect me. But for a family of four or five it's going to be difficult especially if they have holidays booked, not as straight forward as you make out.

HirstWhoScoredIt Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Chansiri inherited a fortune from his Dad. He is no business genius. All his key staff keep leaving or get sacked. The new COO will be gone by Xmas. he hasn't got a clue on pricing. his treatment of the box holders and reneging on contracts is absolutely disgusting. He made an inspired managerial appointment and threw some money at it. This is covering up the cracks. if it starts going wrong on the pitch it will all fall apart.

mozzy85 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I was expecting the price to be the same for tickets really but to put the membership up by £20 is flipping cheeky. Not particularly happy but what can we do apart from boycott games which I don't really want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was me. He still wants as many as he can though doesn't he, we are gonna set a low limit. He needs a few free seats for the tourist fans when we reach the big time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baz9209 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 That's me priced out now as an armed forces member, normally get membership but as I am away for four months this year min no point, POTG as least allowd me 6-7 games per season min, but now it will not be worth it just have to get a season ticket when I retire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 As someone who's unlikely to be in a position to take advantage of a season ticket for the foreseeable future due to work and family commitments, I'm at the mercy of the match day prices and membership offers, and I just have to accept that or stop attending. It cost me £411 to attend 12 matches in the South Stand last season, but I got cheap tickets for the Arsenal game as well as a certain level of priority for the playoff games. If it averages out at about the same this season, then I'll be happy enough; if it averages out to be too much more, then I'll probably start picking and choosing my matches rather than simply attending every game I can get to. One thing I'd really like the club to look into is a Saturday / weekend season ticket, as I'm sure there must be plenty like me who would snap them up given the opportunity.

If this was wembley or even villa in the premier league no one would bat an eyelid Complete wee pipe head coment really. I'm sorry I don't normally have a go at any one but that is a stupid suggestion. These prices are putting people off. I've already booked day off work for villa game but I'm seriously thinking about not bothering for that one. And I went to 16+ games last year. You expect to pay more for a trip to playoff final thats a given but for just a sunday game in the championship when it's on sky is ludicrous!
