Also North Stand ticket prices have been released, so I wonder what’s happening with the development, to bring it back on topic.

Nothing until summer 2024. Prices in the upper have gone up to bring it in line with the Holte.

The last 5 rows of the North (where I sit) were cheaper before this season, so with the further rise it's going to be almost double what we were paying last season.

It feels like mine has doubled in a couple of seasons after being about the same price for over 10 years! I started at just under £300 I think, and it hung around just over £300, rising slowly through the £300s….Then bam! £600! It isn’t quite like this in reality, but it feels like this.
Nonetheless, I’m hanging on to the fact that they didn’t seem to go up for ages and maybe it’s levelling up time.

15% is an enormous hike and some will be even more.

If I remember correctly Upper North was one of the lowest  increases last year.

Maybe the people sat up there should have kept quiet about how good the view is.

Legroom is blooming awful up there though. The redevelopment will sort this I expect

The current North Stand ST holder will no doubt have first dibs on STs in the new stand where the facilities will probably be the best in the ground, but no doubt a significant amount more expensive. I think they may be trying to get people used to the new North Stand prices in instalments, so that the eventual price doesn’t seem as big a hike. If you went straight from current prices to the new ones I reckon the drop out rate would be bigger than if you have 2 biggish but smaller rises.

I don’t even know if I have managed to put this in a way that makes sense, and I’m not offering any opinion on whether this is a good or bad thing, just business.

Made sense to me Amfy.  Like adding hot water slowly to a bath, instead of jumping from the cold into scalding hot water.

I found it here, there’s no detail just the headline news

These details have not been released by the club so you have not missed anything

Is there some counter that shows you how close you are to the top of the waiting-list queue?

I’m pretty sure if you phone up they can tell you what number you are on the list, it may also be on your online account.
