It's a system that worked perfectly well for decades. I wonder if SAG had any involvement in the amount of turnstile tickets we could sell. Don't forget we were prevented from selling any tickets in the North Stand at all for a while, pre-booked or on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been done to death it’s possible to build your points up there are lots of games that don’t sell out. But you can always buy tickets somewhere if you have enough money Jacob.

shezzas left peg Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I wouldn't be surprised if he put prices up knowing just how out of touch and lack of understanding about the local demographic stating we need to be paying higher prices to attract better players to get us straight back up to the championship. He's clueless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Clubs as in plural, could we see a list. I'll start you off. M.K. Dons. Birmingham City but that was before last season. Next ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly can't remember Must be years ago where we did anything other than just open the gates and just sit back and expect people to arrive Zero effort over the years Gets my back up when they do that and then the chairman keeps smashing the prices up for those who DO come Agree but again,for this to stop those people would have to rethink things..? I often walk,or wont pay if things are over priced,or not value for money...in my opinion our current product is ....??? well what would you put in the gap?.............

If he made season tickets £150-£250 for next season, I reckon twice as many people would buy them. This would mean a change in approach from Chansiri though and a move away from stubbornness, so I won’t be holding my breath. He would do the opposite and put the prices up more and say 'we need to raise prices to buy players to get us promoted' as he did a few years ago, with the same statement, we all know how that turned out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say the opposite,POTG ticket pricing has made it a very easy choice,NOT to attend......apart from those who would go irrespective of price....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannofan Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 When, as a fan base, we collectively bent over and let Chansiri shaft us with huge season ticket and POTG increases, we basically demonstrated that we will stand for anything. Attendances remained the same or increased. Ticket prices didn't affect anything. After that Chansiri will correctly assume he doesn't need to give the fans any breaks as far as ticket prices are concerned. If we win a few games and are in the play off places, attendances will be 23 - 25 k , no bother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
