Season ticket prices (37 Viewers)

[CharlesMore]

38% price increase is acceptable??? Jog on. The club have shot themselves big time. They'll no way get 7,000 season ticket holders. The money from Maddison has gone where? If they increased to £280 that would be fair but not £345! I heard that match day prices will be £24 which if true will put fans off too. We have a hardcore fan base this latest ploy will only distant the fans who sit on the fence

Couldn't agree more, even the JSB membership has gone up by 25%. Last season I paid £381 for an adult and two JSB season tickets in block 18, this year the current custodians of our club expect to take that support for granted again and it will set me back £510, an increase of 34%.

I always expected blocks 19,20 & 21 to return to a premium pricing one day but what's this standard plus b#llocks for blocks 18 and 22, talk about extracting the urine!

This is a totally wrong step for the club to take in a period of time when most clubs are either freezing or reducing their prices to keep or attract their support.

There is a very real danger that a generation of our support from areas on the edge of our city could be lost to that six fingered lot at the wrong end of the M69.

Its about time the remaining people on this once busy board grew a pair and stopped being sycophants of the club.

Do they charge more to sit in certain parts of the ground? How's our prices compared to theres?

Hope your not in the wheat sheaf I hear the police are planning another raid tonight which again no doubt will never be reported by anyone in the establishment.

What the fuck you on about? I'm on about budgets. Couldn't care about there ticket prices I care about ours. Although I doubt many teams in the country have increased by 38%?

As for the wheatsheaf comment. Clown. It's alright giving it the keyboard warrior on here. You wouldn't say fuck all if you stepped foot in the place

We are the third cheapest in the league still. What's your point?

Thing is they like to think they are super fans and never slag off sisu or the club. The refund ploy is a con. The prices going up by 38% is scandalous. It's yet another kick in the teeth.

 

[italiahorse]

But they aren't taking money out of CCFC revenue which only comes from player sales, tickets and merchandise.

Wonder where the money is coming from then because I can't see it in the Sisu accounts either.
You may be right but it's all smoke an mirrors to me.

 

[The Lurker]

So which other clubs have had a 38% hike in prices?

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

If they are people you know you might want to explain to them there is absolutely zero evidence to suggest that is happening.

Why would he do that when he can keep sowing seeds of doubt in their mind by repeating it?

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Have all clubs even released there ticket prices yet?

You do realise the prices in post #126 are referring to the current season at £250 and not for the 16/17 season?

 

[The Lurker]

My maths isn't great but going from 904 to 5,158 to 6,300 doesn't seem to be a downward trend.

Can you remember why only 904 and then only 5,000? Mowbary appointment increased sales slightly. Look at the figures before sixfields and now. Almost 3,000 less.

Can you post a link to sisu accounts to support your argument?

I would be very surprised if ticket prices were reduced - wouldn't you?

Its around 1,100 less than our first season in this league, but our average crowds were up by 2k on that season.

Don't forget everyone was optimistic and thought it was going to be a cakewalk on our "league one tour".

We are still the third cheapest in the league. The owners actually have been stupidly casual in the ticketing policy and charged far too cheaply. If our supporters value the CCFC brand less than all but 3 other clubs we have a problem.

Stop bleating.

 

[Nathccfc]

Funnily enough, I stumbled across this earlier, but I was going through some old paperwork, it's the season ticket prices for when we were at the Ricoh first season! Normally prices go up over time, yet it has gone down.

Prices seem reasonable to me if I didn't work weekends I would get one. Like others have said, we aren't as expensive as people think when comparing it to other teams in the same league..

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

I would be very surprised if ticket prices were reduced - wouldn't you?

I was expecting the price rise myself

You said we are the third cheapest in the league still, based on the 16/17 price of £299 I'd say we are almost certainly not.

You are talking about taking 3 people to a football match for less than £23 and you are choosing to sit in a higher priced area.

It would cost a shit load more to go bowling or to the cinema. I understand frustration of a price hike, but it's still a reasonable price - especially as I'm assuming your two JSB's are over 13?

Depending on promoted teams from the lower division - and if Bradford are promoted - I'd be amazed if we are not. It's still a very low price.

It isn't a hike, which other clubs had a 38% discount last season? They have just gone back to normal.

JSB is still £25 isn't it?

Sit in the family zone, it's a decent view and kids are free.

It's like the guy moaning on social media his kids are older now so he has to pay more!

Can people not see that last season was a discount, this season it is just a normal price. Still a lot cheaper than other teams in our league.

 

[The Lurker]

Really? You don't believe it's a hike? Deluded. How many other clubs played 30 miles away only 3 years ago?

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Looks to me like we didn't sell enough this season to justify keeping the prices low. We'd have needed to sell at least 6,500 to bring in the same revenue as the season before.

I'd have happily fleeced pay on the day fans and away fans on match day prices to make up the short fall

 

[cov4theprem]

Sheff Utd reduced their prices by 10% and adults start from £286

 

[Nick]

Surely a hike would be a massive increase on other seasons. It has gone back to what it was before, which is still cheaper than Shrewsbury.

If Ccfc valued there supporters we wouldn't have moved to sixfields. You believe we will have more season ticket sales this year compared to last year?

 

[Nick]

They also get 18-19k a week though.

Their kids prices are £11 more.

Watch out for the Somalians on the way home.

 

[no_loyalty]

To purchase a season ticket, do I have to register a new account or can I use my existing CCFC customer number?

38% is a massive increase. The club still need to build bridges with fans after the sixfields fiasco. do you believe we will sell more than last year, on a side note. Many off us were behind the goal. They moved us but didn't increase the price but now they've upped the price but haven't moved us back.

It should work with your number

 

[The Lurker]

You not going to answer the question then?

 

[Grendel]

You not going to answer the question then?

What question? It's reasonable and if you support the club you'd stop moaning and living in your stupid fantasy world. I'd buy one at £400 and still think it value.

Thick twat. I will ask again. Do you think we will sell more season tickets than last year?

 

[SkyBlueHomer]

On the face of it the prices are not bad but people need to remember however you dress it up season tickets have gone up.

For many years we sat in block 29, since then we had the move to Northampton & we have also been 'evicted' from 29. We got settled there & now the prices released today we are faced with a huge rise. So we are looking at having to move yet again.

The problem as I see it is how many people will want to sit in blocks 14-17, not willing to pay up to £345 for central blocks? How many are not prepared to get piss wet through at the front of these blocks so just not bother renewing.

 

[Grendel]

Thick twat. I will ask again. Do you think we will sell more season tickets than last year?

Sadly little man this question has to do with elasticity of demand. A concept that will be well below your single digit IQ.

The question actually is will the price increase adversely impact sales and the answer is no.

Still watch out the Somalians are behind you.

 

[theferret]

I was thinking about having a little moan, but then my wife reminded me that I blow at least 20 quid before every game in the casino and so I should wind my neck in.

These prices are OK. Move on, nothing to see here...

Oh, and I had a mate moaning to me about the increase earlier, until I pointed out that we've just paid 250 quid each to watch the Joshua fight, which will probably last about 3 minutes. Perspective needed.
