Rebowl Yell Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I’d honestly love to know what the bright spark who came up with this scheme thought we were gonna spend all those ‘vouchers’ on if we can’t even spend it on replica kit. Most people might buy a polo shirt or a key ring but who in their right mind is gonna spend over £50 12 times a season on non replica related items? Do we even sell enough merch to cover this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morley Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Whilst I loiter around this forum regularly I usually restrict my comments to financial matters, but on this particular issue I have no comment. I'm just sat shaking my head in disbelief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Was in the club shop yesterday. I doubt I could find 750 quids worth of hear to buy. There's some nice stuff, but it's all around the 20 to 30 quid mark. I don't need or want 20 polo shirts or hoodies etc. Our season tickets are looking like great value compared to this scheme.

It proves they are completely out of touch with the fan base, the championship and world football in general. It's a business model to generate more and more.....I don't understand how it can happen, when on face value, we have a generous chairman who wants to be friends with everyone and always has time for pictures with fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hack-Abusi Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Dunno about you but increased membership, ticket prices and shirt prices sound like we are sailing very close to the FPP wind or we don't have as much $$$ as we all think we have ... Some of the prices I've seen being charged are ludicrous .. where do they think we all live. Chelsea or Richmond or something! ffs ... I'm absolutely flabbergasted by the increase in MC prices as well as ticket prices and shirt prices .. and very little return on that investment as well. Also excluding the kit and sale items from the spend to get the money off vouchers is a big BIG fail in my eyes. This is what the MC is all about .. discounts off match tickets and our official kit .. not excluding the biggest lure into the club shop (the kit ffs) and having mediocre reduction in ticket prices for most games. Cat A game reduced but still paying over £40. WOW. For all of Chansiri's buzz words; the SWFC family, looking out for the fans, wanting to do what's best for the club, you aren't going to get that with champagne prices and having a mediocre bucks fizz product. 80% increase in MC prices. Absurd. Pricing out many fans, casual, regular, old, young .. heck even season ticket holders that see this as an extra bit to the club for some discounts they may spend won't want to invest. I definitely agree with the poster about the younger fans. Our future is potentially being priced out whether that's through coming here on their own or a parent picking up the tab .. its soon gonna become impossible when we are paying premiership prices but only being dished up a championship product. No signings, players being sold, increased prices in nearly all parts of the club ... not sure this is the right way to go to be honest ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modboy Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 its crazy, honestly dont think i will make any matches this season. Iwas a ST holder last but decided membership route this year would be best due to having a baby, not a chance now im paying that for a membership, nor will i be paying the ludicrous POTG prices (just bought a whole weekend Tramlines ticket for the price of a game at S6). BUT if they had said when STs went first on sale these will be your options, you know what i may well have plumped for an early bird ticket, no one expected such a leap in prices, tbf after last season a reduction might not have been totally unsurprising as the club cant keep riding on the fact we got to Wembley 3 years ago!

Dick_Turpin Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 It’s interesting that not even the people who usually back the owner come what may are coming forward to support this price hike. Hopefully the club will think again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I noticed that those who usually are 100% backing the club no matter what they do are staying out of this one I dont' think they're necessarily critical of out outwardly though.

Some people feel like they are almost criticising a close family member in public by having a go at Wednesday. With the way football is very partisan its not surprising some people feel this way.
