Season Tickets

[AV82EC]

I'm sure the usual rumours of 20% hikes will be leaked to some itk on twit etc causing meltdown then we'll all heavy a collective sigh of releif when the club announce "only" 10%

So exactly like last season and it turned out to be 5%. Still I’m sure the usual suspects will be in full on Cry Wolf mode.

I just hope concessions are kept reasonable.  There seems to be a worrying trend in the PL for OAP tickets to priced similar to full paying adults

Out of interest at what age does the OAP discount kick in?

There will be the brinksmanship about CL qualification like there was last year. Leaving it until the very last minute.

True but I don't understand it.  Villa Season tickets are the absolute definition of inelastic demand so give us a clue how much they are so we can save etc.

I’d be surprised if they arent further aligned towards adult prices, football clubs don’t really want concessions, guess the investment in kids is that they keep going into adulthood, the OAP ones they’ll have a perception that OAPs don’t go to the shop, don’t really partake in the stunning fayre provided in the stands so the match day spend with the club is ticket price only.

It’s a horrible viewpoint but seems more and more clubs are going that way, edging up the concession age and closing the gap on how much a concession saves price wise

The club don't care if you need to save, as they'll just replace you with someone who has the money the moment they demand it.

In fact they'd probably prefer it's somebody who doesn't need to save as some sort of analysis has proven they spend more in the club shop.
