I’ll still get one one but I doubt he’ll get one now. That’s £400 the clubs most likely lost just now.

My boy is 4 and have bought him a ST for the past 2 seasons, only for him not to use it yet, but at £25 it was never a problem. Also allowed a mate to buy a ticket and sit in the spare seat with us. He’s becoming mildly interested so I thought next year may be the year he begins joining me regularly, but I’m not going to pay £200 for it to be used sparingly.

I’m equally as annoyed that my seat is unavailable. Somewhere I’d never look to move from to be honest. I seriously hope they consider a U-turn on this.

As I’ve said prices were always going to go up, if we want to compete for top players, convince our better players to stay we have to pay top wages and be able to afford it if we go up it’s then a whole different ball game. What I will say is hats off to Doug King he’s acted before any promotion that might happen, cards on the table, there were always going to be belly aching but look at the packages, it ain’t too bad.

Riddle me this, no matter how many over priced tickets we sell - we'll still have a bottom 6 budget.

Coventry City reveal 2009-2010 season tickets prices

COVENTRY CITY have revealed their season ticket prices for next season, boasting that they are cheaper than their Midland rivals, if not the whole of the Championship.
www.coventrytelegraph.net www.coventrytelegraph.net

2009/10 was £420 on the halfway line.

That would be £650+ adjusted for inflation.

Very true. It all seems a bit trying to take advantage of play off fever and the 30,000 plus v Birmingham rather than a thought out strategy over next 5 years?

I suspect this has been the plan for a while.

Yeah which is my point, they weren't free unless you were in the JSB zone / blocks. It changed a couple of years back so they were free anywhere in the ground. (with JSB membership).

I suspect that move lead to shit loads of abuse of them...

club haven’t read the room at all and very short sighted in this. Record season ticket sales when sisu were still here back in august. Instead of using that and just slightly increasing prices, they’ve gone down the route of Doug king is god he can do no wrong. If sisu had pulled this same stunt be more up roar.

But people aren't whinging because they aren't free, they are whinging because their kids seats have gone massively up undless they move to a part of the ground they don't want to be in.

No,.they were free, you just had to pay the £25 membership fee which you had to pay in the JSB section also. I did this for my son in block 16. What is it you're not getting?

Even if what you were saying was true, which it isn't, you're going back 8 years anyway. People don't won't to move from their current seats, it's an entirely different matchday experience now.

Season ticket for a JSB in the Premium Zone would have been £140 with a membership from what I can work out.

Obviously a lot more next season but it wasn't necessarily cheap then, especially for League 1 football.

I’m so confused 🤯 I sit in block 36 with my two kids 5 and 7
Before I had £25 membership for the kids each and I paid mine.
So now I’m paying £200 for each kids and then my £400?
been a long day sorry. I’m guessing the JSB membership you won’t get a season ticket with it?

They weren't free, that's the point I am making. I don't think they were £200 though, more like £30 for under 13 or something if they were a JSB. (may have changed when the zones have come in and out)

Is there any limit on how many additional adult tickets you can buy in the JSB zone? Is there anything stopping 10 adults getting a £250 season ticket with just 1 U14 JSB?

If the price rises lead to a negligible increase in revenue, but a noticeable decline in atmosphere, are they a success? For me it’s a no.

People moaning about paying for their kids. Kids that are sat there playing on a £600 games console that's plugged into a £800 tv - wearing a fucking stupid tracksuit and trainer combo set that cost £350.......

We need these kids to enjoy it and keep coming back, in the words of Whitney Houston, 'I believe the children are our future!'.

Try block 1, 2 & 3. I've sat there previous years. Smaller stand so far fewer people. Also less crowded in the concourse.

The absolute vast majority will be paying slightly more though and there's possible thousands paying LESS.

Didn't Doug say we have 3000 JSB season tickets?

If you guess that we had 8000 adult season tickets, all but 3 blocks are paying £345 (early bird) or £399 (standard).

With the £399 standard price next season, I'd imagine possibly 3000-4000 fans are paying just £1 more and another 4000 are paying £55 more.


The thing people aren't seeing are that a 14 year old JSB and his dad can go for £300. Last season that would have been £440.

Tbf this might be due to the new lease agreement. I imagine Ashley drives a hard bargain and he holds all the cards.

Yes BUT

If you move to block 34, it would cost you just £350 all in, including the memberships!
