Feels like the fact that our owner decided to announce a season ticket price hike with a video that begins with him getting out of bed in his underwear should be a bigger story than it currently is among our fanbase imo.This makes me cringe.
Doug is getting more like him too with things like that video
Wow, you really miss the point don't you.
Do they have to all sit in the same stand?
But, they can sit where they like for the same price.
Not quite, Watford are charging 4 year olds £144 in their premium seats.
You are limited to certain areas, just not one large area like we are.
But people don't want to move to the North Stand, it's a ridiculous argument.
People like the match day experience where they are.
What can't you grasp about this?
It doesn't appear so at the moment. all that are on sale is the premier league packages.
To do they above you'd have to buy the premier package and then wait until 3pm on the 8th to buy the normal kids one
what is your fascination in comparing to other teams. Other teams haven’t been through the shit we have. Now we have some potential success the club are now charging extortionate prices for kids to sit in seats they have done for years
Yeah they will sell loads more if they make it so you can buy a premier one for the adults but normal for the kids.The thing is i dont think that is possible because you cant buy a child ST by itself. Im sure there will be a way to manage it but cant be unique soni was hoping someone else might have discussed with the ticket office already.
Still the King family are clearly taking it seriously
One poster described the song as ‘legendary on the terraces’
I’m sure last season you could only buy a jsb with a adult season ticket. so unsure how so many managed to get season ticket with Jsb on its own
Blackpool away especially, people were going mad for it.
At the other clubs? Really?To get the cheapest ticket as seen above, yes!
At 5 year old kid would pay £144 in their premium seats.
I get your point David, £144 is still less than £200-£300.
But then £480 is less than the £524 Watford charge in their middle blocks.
At the other clubs? Really?
no fucking point with youWhat do you mean?
no fucking point with you
NoDoes anybody know if the instalment payments will be available before 8th May
I wonder if King thinks that reducing the balance of season tickets vs matchday tickets is something worth doing? Season tickets good to support cashflow but there is established consistent demand for overall about 18k average home tickets to be sold every week.
Overall, is there an argument to say that season tickets should make up a small part of that figure than they do currently?
Because that's nor the point people are making is it?
I keep hearing people saying about other clubs charging peanuts but not acknowledging that they too have certain areas cheaper than others.

all you keep saying is "people can move"I'm trying to listen to what you're saying David and you keep saying stuff like this.
I'm offering an alternative to your view and you don't like it. Fair enough.
massive risk to that. If we don’t go up, we could easily do a Huddersfield next season. That’s when you need bums on seats. cov are fickle fans, they wouldn’t turn up if we are mid table or lower
all you keep saying is "people can move"
which isn't the point
There is a risk but there is also a risk (as King has pointed out) that you effectively limit your earnings by punting cheap season tickets out.

That's the point Doug has made clear though.
He hasn't priced anyone out of the ground but he's priced people (kids) out of premium areas.
The comment that one in four are £25 clearly shows the revenue from it is much lower than you’d assume
FFS, this last time I say this to you.That's the point Doug has made clear though.
