22 quid is too much imo
the ricoh prices are shit
oh to be a student again.
Not sure that's an argument to be honest.
Agreed (on both counts).
Not just us either, football at this level shouldn't cost anything like that.
What gets me is the average ticket cost was £9.50. Maybe the best thing would be no freebies, no concessions, everyone is £10 in.
How do you mean shmmeee?

Never accepted "everyone else does it" as an argument for anything really. As I said in a previous post I think all the teams at this level are overpriced.

There isnt any F&b , but apparantly we get more money from sponsors than before , dont know what that means tbhIf there is a percentage of F@B going to the club, then a good incentive to keep ticket prices down, and crowd sizes up.

Yeah but you are an OAP ??!!I paid £207. That's £9 a game.

Not really, though nice try. Of course the club having money is always good, but not really relevant here. You'd only have to drop ticket prices by about 50p to wipe out any F&B profit (even at 100% of profit going to the club).
Personally I think a large crowd is it's own reward and pays for itself in other ways (not least more success on the pitch) that far outweigh the paltry amount the club could make with F&B.
I want to go on Saturday with my 14yo son and his mate plus I was going to take my partner and her 2 kids aged 5 and 6 - so that 6 of us in the Family area. Went online and prices are £18 per adult and £9 per child which makes that £72. Couple on top of that travelling from Stratford then parking and food I don't think I will see any change out of £100.
My personal view is that the club need to offer Gillingham prices for the entire season as a way of apology for putting the fans and the City of Coventry through so much trauma over the past year.
The up-side to that would be larger crowds pushing the players on plus the build up of a shed-load of goodwill not to mention a rebuilding of a new younger generation of fan base (attracting tomorrows fans today).
Now I'm not sure if we can afford to take everyone this weekend and have decided not to buy online and make a decision on the day instead - I was poised with my debit card but the prices made me log off.
Funny how cost was never an issue whilst we were in Northampton- thought everyone was desperate just to get back. Now suddenly we are overpriced? You want the bloody moon on a stick you lot.

I dont understand the club , they could make the same money by charging 15 a match for adults 8-10 for kids , with an attendance average of 16000 no doubt at them prices , as they will getting 10k at 22-27 pound , surely they can work out the margins and make the tickets cheaper than they are
Think there has to be a compromise. I don't think anyone has said we are over priced. I just think people have said it's expensive when taking a family and if prices were lowered a touch you would see other benefits. It's a forum. It's all debatable.
When you put a nimber inside somebodys head lets say 27 pound , then put the number 18 in their head , which one will make them more likely to buy , some people will do anything to save 50p let alone 3-9 poundWhat evidence is there to back this up? Gillingham was a one-off. Isn't it £18 in the cheap parts of the stadium now? How will charging £3 less suddenly mean another 6,000 (based on avg attendance in 13/14) fairweather fans will suddenly be rushing to the Ricoh? It just wouldn't happen.
This club has massive potential in terms of the size of the city but the only way to turn the part-time fans into full-time ones is success on the pitch. We'd sell well in excess of 20K every game if we were at the top of this league, irrespective of price.
