Which season ticket holders are calling for that?
I am in block 20 and thought it worked out at around £22 a game for shelling out £460 in May/June
Now first dibs at away tickets has gone,what incentives have I got if I can pick and choose my games for little or no more.

Did you have to pay it all up front or are you paying over 10 months ?

Exactly, £7-£8 a game more is perfectly reasonable. I was responding to a post and other comments suggesting £35 for every game would be justified and I was saying that was excessive and penalised those who cannot commit to a ST (exiled fans for example) more than was reasonable.

I dont care if they pay the same, all these people crying about incentives should wipe their eyes and stop moaning.
I'm a st holder will miss the first 2 games and know will miss more so it means I am paying more per game, but hey that's life.
I get a ST to sit in the same row as my friends and dont have to bother with the shitty web site.

Find this weird as fuck

Weve sold the season tickets were going to sell now.

Release match ticket prices and stop dawdling

I’d guess it’s try and incentivise a few more season ticket sales which is steady income.

Yea but why? Anyone who wanted one has one. No ones going to turn round now, 3 days before the season and say ' yea go on then'

Whereas match tickets go on sale now, off the back of Wright being revealed for example, would have about 3000 people snapping them up at £30 a pop, way more monmey than the potential handful that will get an ST at this point

I don’t work in sales and marketing so I’ve no idea really, just seemed the likely explanation.

Match day prices are out now anyway.

The club clearly feel that with limited availability they can price at this level because of supply/demand.

If we're mid table in November when we play Stoke, if more than 500 pay £37, I will be amazed.

Obviously prices were going up, but hoped the movement would be more confined to cat C and B. Those Cat A prices (for families) are out of reach for many.

Notice they have also only give Boro 2000 initially, so I think we maybe cap at 3000 away fans, happy with that.

Maybe offer a family match ticket (2 adults +2 kids) for a decent discount.

I think they will retain the option, but I'm not sure they will as a matter of course. Boro capped at 3K.

Are boro capped at 3k ? initial ticket allocation often has nothing to do with the full allocation..

If they can sell 4.5k they will get 4.5 k tickets like everybody else surely

They have set the game as cat B so perhaps are confident of a home end sell out for this one so retaining the option to split the end.

I mean I get that on the grand scheme fans are OK with the pricing , should we be made to pay these prices away from home , we'd be outraged on here .
Strange how that works

Good point. I imagine we'll pay more than £37 only once all season away from home.
