Monday 4 September: Season Ticket Holders, Club Members and Owls Foundation Members Why would Season Ticket Holders have the option to buy a ticket? We already have one? Does this mean as a season ticket holder, which I am, I could buy an extra ticket for a friend? If so I'm assuming I get the points for it? Sorry for asking what seems like a stupid question but although I've had a ST for years it's something I've never been sure on. Yes you can buy an extra ticket as a season ticket holder. You won't get priority points for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Ouch. I was was kind of hoping they'd put a bit of a deal on for this game. It's our first Derby for 6 years and it's our 150th. I know we're all programmed to hate the scrubbers, but at the end of the day they're just supporters like us. 42 quid is just eye watering.

Could have helped boost attendance at the 2 midweek games coming up against Brentford and Millwall. £60 for 2 games or £75 for all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for answering my question though You're welcome. Don"t get yourself in the bad books though if it sells out before she can buy her own, or if the nearest seat to you is miles away...okay, that last bit might not be as bad for you.

If I am honest part of me would like it not to be a sell out as a result of these prices. If nobody would pay over £25 for a ticket then the price would be £25. A sell out which it will be shows fans loyalty but also gives a green light to the club to exploit their loyalty again in the future.

owler66 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 In our 150th year would have been nice for the club to give something to the fans £20 all round but still rip the pigs off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFP means you can't have your ar.se wiped every season any more. Huddersfield would suggest otherwise. also as a season ticket holder my price is okay. Over 40 quid to watch mid table second tier football is disgusting . Even a simpleton like you can't deny that out of interest what success have we had since charging through the roof ?

Iv just pulled myself off the floor after crying with laughter Some of our fans on We Love Sheffield Wednesday facebook group have me in stitches, when Butterfield signed last night one reckoned we didn't need anymore central midfielders because we've already got seven and they included Forestieri on list. In seconds Winnall went from one of our strikers who can't score to Lionel Messi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Good God that's steep. Can't defend it in any way. I hope it does sell out as it will make for a bigger occasion and brings in more cash but like said before, green light to charge what they want.

Makes no odds how it's funded at all. Man A spends 37 quid to watch Spurs in National stadium for a premiership game. Man A can also watch a Sheffield Derby in the Championship for 42 quid. I'm a ST holder by the way with no axe to grind, but our prices are crazy high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
