I can imagine the meeting that took place.

Ok, we've just had our worst season in the clubs History. 9 defeats on the trot. Relegated by February. Crowds are declining, the board has just walked out, we have no manager and the players are openly hated because of their lack of desire and effort and we will be playing in a lower division for the first time in a generation.

What do you think we can do to stem the tide and try and keep crowds up and them on side a little?

I know, let's knock a tenner off, that should do the trick.

On the official site now, no change a chance missed by the misguided fools running the club.

Standard price tickets reduced by £10

Wow.... a whole tenner. Well, thank you kind sir, I doff my cap to you sir.

Piss is indeed being taken as expected

Only stating a fact -no need to take the piss out of me, mate.

And as for your question about the red areas - they're not closed - they're the prices in the red column. The only places not available for ST's is the away section and the Upper Trinity

They are never going to win on the pricing, but fuck me the most depressing part of it is that is now all so real.

They are, the original graphic I posted was from last year. I later updated it

So our big push to fill the place out and "roar them on to promotion" is to charge the same price for an inferior product and close parts of the ground? Fucking brilliant.

Ah, my bad - apologies for the misinterpretation on my part. Blame it on over-sensitivity because of the shit storm we're in!

What a load of crap. Why not do a proper reduction, like 10 or 20%, not £10! Could have thrown in all Cup games for free for ST holders.

Also shows that as we already feared the fans have no power, including the likes of AVST who wrote a letter campaigning for a proper reduction and innovative marketing.

A tenner off !!??

Another nail in the coffin for a lot of people .

If the arseholes at the club had a fucking clue - and sacked Gabby - saving his £3M a year salary , they could knock £150 off each season ticket for 20,000 people .

But that would make too much sense .

Those prices are a disgrace and an insult to us supporters who have stuck with the club again this season.

So pissed off when I saw them I knocked a cup of tea over - which went into a draw and soaked my Watford tickets.

Well that is fucking shite.

It is, but I suppose they would argue that as it is more games the pro rata reduction is greater. Never mind that we are getting an inferior product.

I just feel it's just another show of contempt for the fans.
