trumbullowl Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 The US financial services industry thinks that European football in general is enormously undervalued and that a great deal more profit can be squeezed from it. That's why we're seeing so much US investment in clubs like Ipswich, QPR, Birmingham and maybe one day Wednesday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post casbahowl Posted April 2 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 2 Also while I’m in full meltdown …….. Talksport have reported that this is the first season in 20 seasons that WBA have not been in the EPL or in receipt of Parachute Pyments! Jim White wished them well & hopes they win the Playoffs for their “fantastic fans“ & what they’ve had to endure! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American hedge funds at their finest Quite eyewatering for the "premium seating", but this seems to be a selective portion of the full document - a potentially Premier League season ticket for adults for £381 in the block or blocks at the top of the page seems quite reasonable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 There you go, as expected if you dig a little deeper and find the full document, the majority of prices aren't bad at all, it's only the "premium" bits that are excessive and they seem more like corporate sections anyway as you get "padded seats, premium views, free matchday programme, hot or soft drinks vouchers, bar access." https://s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/gc-media-assets.gc.ipswichtownfcservices.co.uk/401d19f0-ec4d-11ee-840a-856d30e7c124.pdf 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why we're seeing so much US investment in clubs like Ipswich, QPR, Birmingham and maybe one day Wednesday. Which is perhaps not great for the game going forward in this country. There is an awful lot of criticism for the sport washing oil states (rightfully so), but American venture capitalists buying up more and more English football clubs should get the alarm bells ringing, particularly if they end up being the outright majority in the top flight. They're here to make money and one of the things that hits that balance sheet most is relegation from the lucrative Premier League. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 The majority of prices look reasonable on the full document. Especially if they are playing Premiership football. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post @owlstalk Posted April 2 Popular Post Share Posted April 2 I do think some fans have a tendency to try and defend / excuse Chansiri's absolutely disgusting pricing policy by trying to hunt out a bad price somewhere else and pointing to it going 'there look!! actually we're not that bad are we?' When the answer is YES YES we ARE that bad Just accept it 11 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Here's the rest of their pricing - just for balance Could you imagine Chansiri offering us prices as LOW as this? I couldn't And that's for Championship / League One! But Ipswich Town could actually be paying these prices for PREMIER LEAGUE FOOTBALL Our fans are getting FLEECED 6 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asteener1867 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 There are other clubs that have high prices, but are they such a bloody basket case as ours? Ipswich have a chance of paying similar prices to watch Spurs, liverpool Man City etc...Look where this nutter is taking us... Ipswich are riding a wave of optimism, while we have all on to drag ourselves to Hillsborough even with a ticket thats already paid for FFS! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s absolutely no denying the fact that despite not knowing which division they’re in they’ll have to pay £903 to renew their season ticket in the centre of the Cobold stand if they’re in the championship & a new customer will have to fork out £999 & if they’re in the EPL a new customer Pays £1135. As every other seat in the ground has been renewed already, any one wanting to watch football at Portman Rd will have to pay one of the above prices if they want a season ticket! That is an irrefutable fact! if there’s any POTG being held back I’d be interested to see what they would be set at! Like someone mentioned earlier, the Yanks aren’t in it for the good of ITFC ………. They want a massive return on their investment! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Ipswich Town fans (adults) could watch Premier League football with a season ticket costing £370 next season £370 to watch Man City, Man United, Chelsea, Spurs, LIverpool etc Meanwhile - Our fans are getting fleeced and some fans are STILL trying to tell us we're not 3 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
