Quote from: exigo on May 05, 2022, 12:39:36 PMAs someone in L3, I knew I was going to get clobbered with a 10+% increase. Bit annoyed by the 18% hit in the end, but that's still around £35.60 per game if we don't get a home cup game (as is tradition), or £33.85 if we do. Which is pretty comparable to the £30 away ticket cap.But what does grind my gears is that the bloke sitting two seats to my right in L2 now pays £140 less – two price zones cheaper, rather than £70 less – one zone cheaper. It's really hard to justify why I'm paying that much more for essentially the same view, with the same lack of service on the concourse and endless queues at half time. Even if the club had come out and said 'this is the new 16 pint pouring machines we're installing', it would have made it a bit more palatable. I'd much rather cough up extra cash for *my* matchday experience, than feel I'm just helping the club through FFP while paying the players an absolute barrowful of cash every week for another crap performance.Just for info - the first home cup game is included.I also wish for a multi pint pourer - I know they’re expensive as an outlay, but they do enough business to justify it, or could do if they had one.

The club have to do their part and deliver. We have to have success or at least be on a clear pathway to it or competing for it, to sustain demand at high prices.Or perhaps higher prices, as they're not high in context of our peers, who are also doing the same thing with the same ambitions. "What difference does an extra £4m make?", well taken singularly, not a lot. But when your closet rival is doing it, then its the possibility to gild wages for 2 more players that we may not have the budget for.I'd love it to be cheap, Bayern Munich style. But we're not the 1 horse in the 1 horse show like they are. Suck it up we must.
To avoid a quotathon. Andy & PGW - the disabled question has not to my knowledge been raised at an FCG.
There is a small section of padded seats in the Upper North , does anybody know if these are open to anyone or are they hospitality seats only ?
The relocation window is 13th to 16th June.
A bit OT, but can anyone explain to me or point me in the right direction on how to re-assign an existing season ticket to another person for one match (tonight) online, because I've already been on hold on the telephone to the ticket office for what seems like forever.
