BigBlueDan Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 £35 seemed to be the new norm last season. Surely they can't milk it any higher. Talking north stand here by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could also be why we have had the 2 best, back to back seasons in more than 2 decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were poor in a few, Rotherham and Burton off top of my head, we were simply beaten by better side in a few, Brighton and Reading off top of my head and we average to good in a lot of others, 3 I've already mentioned Norwich, Newcastle and Villa plus Bristol, Derby, Forest, Barnsley, Birmingham... Even Brentford where we lost we played some great attacking football in second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you just started supporting us??? Prices are 1 thing but anybody saying the football was crap either has the memory of a goldfish or didn't bother with us under Jewell, Yorath, Irvine etc as that was crap although wasn't as stressful due to turning up expecting to lose anyway so any of good performance, draw or win was a bonus.

I don't think they could have remotely considered increasing it again , sadly its not as valuable as it once was because there are so more season ticket holders now members are a lot further down the pecking list and cant get tickets for many of the away games. the club gets £50 a year for effectively thin air. In the not so distant past I think I paid £10 per year. Not many peoples wages have gone up by 500% in the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I do wonder what he would charge if there were no FFP rules. We can all have our say about prices but if attendances increase as they did last year and we make more money on the turnstiles he isn't going to change them. If we were only getting 17,000 a match then something would have to change. Its the same with the shirts. Last season people complained about the lack of stripes and the price increase but we still sold more shirts than ever before. While people are prepared to pay it he will charge it!

Pot to wee wee in or not what's that got to do with the Quality of football on show. Surely Crap is Crap, Average is Average, Good is Good and Brilliant is Brilliant no matter how much money you have? You are whinging at finishing 4th in a league were realistically we were 5th/6th favs, Some people just wont ever be happy with there lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
