Season Tickets - 2022/23

[cdbearsfan]

That would obviously be preferable to me from a selfish point of view but still very harsh on the zone 5 and 6ers. I'd be tempted to hold fire on major price changes until we are getting 55,000 every week and even then bring the other levels up on a more gradual basis rather than £100+ in one go.

If there's no safe-standing for the new North Stand, when/where? Would it be much of a job to make 25% of the Holte safe-standing?

Also, he didn't exactly proffer much opinion on our on-field performances this season, did he?!

I paid £483, just checked. What tier is that, please?

2021-22 Prices

Thanks. I'm looking at a £150 increase, then. Not good. Do I really need two kidneys?

Are you sure your Zone is moving up one?  It hasn't been announced yet exactly which Zone are changing has it?

My thought is that it’s 10% for zones 1-4. Zones 5 and 6 will become zone 4, so they will have the bigger increase.
I’m zone 6, so mine will increase by £150.
Those in zone 5 will be about £100

My zone is 6, so that '£370 or have I got that wrong

Those are this seasons prices, so next season the talk is that zones 5 and 6 are going so your £370 ticket will become £483 + 10% so £531.

So a 43% rise for those in current zone 6?
purslow appears to be throwing Nicola Ibbetson and her team under the bus for that one, if it's the case. Great ceo he is!
Also the starstruck one appears not so convinced with his star judging by his absence of an onfield report for the 1st team.

Correct. That’s why I said ‘the talk is’ that their going to do that. Nothing confirmed as yet.

I don't like using facts and figures to change people's minds, because they're not very persuasive - but they will help to highlight the logical fallacy in your position regarding the waiting list.

This season we are ranked 4th in terms of sold tickets to ground capacity.  Our average attendance is 98.1% of capacity.  Only Norwich, Arsenal and Leicester have a higher percentage than that.  Leicester are highest, at 99.1% 

No one fills the ground every single game.  No one.

No. One.  It is not a thing that happens.

Manchester United claim a season ticket waiting list of 100,000 people (or did a couple of years ago), and yet they average only 97.5% capacity.
Arsenal have a waiting list in excess of 40,000, and their attendances are 98.2%, basically the same as ours.

It's almost as if the very fact of having a season ticket waiting list doesn't automatically mean you will fill the ground to capacity for every single match.
Funny that.
As for those Christmas fixtures that fell just short of capacity, I can't speak for anyone else, but I know that personally, I chose not to do ANYTHING in December so I could guarantee Christmas with the family I'd not seen in a long time.  That meant in the few weeks before Christmas, no pubs, no socialising, no Christmas party, and no football.  I can't speak for others, obviously, but it's just one explanation of why we might have been a couple of hundred short of 42k.

You're very persuasive, Smithy. Top debating!

I'm in this bracket, deep joy. As it stands, I'll be thinking twice about it.

Email the club and make your feelings known. They don't get away with this on the continent.

Pick up a season ticket behind the goals for 300€ at most European Clubs.  They're taking your support for granted. The more emails the better chance we have of retaining those vital price zone categories. With the cost of living and wages stalling it's an insult to either consider putting up season passes just to pay for some under achiever on the bench

Make a stand!

So are we feeling ‘simplify concession prices’ = kids prices rising dramatically?

Not only kids.

[Drummond]

Simplifying makes sense, though it's all smoke and mirrors. Why not just say 'We are putting prices up to raise more money to pay Coutinho because so many of you said he as worth the ticket price on his own'. Or, 'We're aiming high, and that means more cost, we need to increase revenue and I'm afraid you lot are going to pay for it'. p.s. We'll improve the shit facilities so that you can spend more instead of waiting in queues and missing what you've already paid to see.
