These are the old Zones 2021-22



The main changes are lower North and middle of lower Holte, with a few others - back few rows of upper North, L1, L8 and part of K1 in the Holte and a small section of B7 in the Trinity.

I've gone from zone 3 to zone 2. A jump of 18%, or over a hundred quid. I now have to give renewal some thought.

Same for us, £102 rise seems excessive.

It's a big rise, but they are some of the best seats in the ground.

K2 & K6 now seem to be the only Zone 3 seats left in the ground so I reckon there will be more shuffling next season.

My rise is £333 to £531!!!

Which kidney do I sell to renew???

[astonvilla82]

The waiting list is never genuine
There is one but there's no way 24,000 who would pay up. They have used this tactic to up the prices.

No early purchase discount, no zone 5/6.

Never expected it to be this bad but the club has simply lost touch with reality

Yeah, they are also telling lies about the stadium update too eh? Jeez!

I'm as guilty of this as anybody, but he's just an ultra tedious troll who is best ignored.

  kept contacting son and me last year saying as he was on the list he could apply for season ticket,by this time he already had one

I've a feeling the 24,000 season ticket waiting list won't be 24,000 next season.

I note the Website doesnt have last seasons prices on it, probably for the best as I’ve changed zones and the kids one is also more expensive. Ah well, I’d only be found jobs around the house to do if I didn’t renew.

It will be higher, just to annoy Wilma.

Season ticket prices for this season for PeterWithe:

I just noticed that my now-to-be zone 2 seat will cost only seven quid less than last season's zone 1 full price ticket.

They have said that anyone who is hit by more than one increase (e.g. zone change and concession change) would have the increase capped at 50%. I am not sure what this means in real life.

Apparently 1161 fans are affected by these ‘multiple hits’ & they looked at these in detail at th me request if the FCG

[Abbeyfealeavfc]

£161 increase for me (43.5% rise following a meh season!)
I'm not really bothered what other clubs are charging. A 43% increase along with other cost of living rises is huge.
I'm guessing this is just the start and that zones 3 & 4 will be merged with zones 1 and 2 in future years with equally hefty increases. All in the pursuit of the so-called top 6 clubs and the "tourist" fans they attract leaving some real supporters out priced and beyond reach of live football at the ground.

I do feel for people with the biggest price hike from 5/6 to 4.  I wonder, how doe our cheapest non-concession adult ticket (£531) compares to other PL clubs?

I haven't checked many, but for example
Everton is £535 (or £465 for an adult in the family enclosure)
West Ham - £299 in band 6 and £335 in band 5
Wolves - £549 (in 21/22)
Crystal Palace £495
Chelsea - £750 (in 21/22) and £595 in family stand
Brighton - £545
Newcastle - £600 (in 21/22) and £417 in family stand
Spurs - £807

So it's pretty clear we are towards the lower end of the spectrum.  Not much consolation for those hardest hit I know but if we want to be competitive I guess this was inevitable at some point.

This is very much the basis on which they feel they need to raise the prices as they have - to pull into line with the bottom end of the Premier League pricing structure. Our concessions were also generally about 10% more than other clubs and this has been reduced to about 5% better - still better, but not as far out.
when we get into silly money for players and from sky, it gets easy to think a few million doesn’t really matter, but of course it has to.

My wife asked me about the prices for next season's season ticket (I sit in the lower Holte) i mentioned it will be £600+, she just gave me the look.

As every summer for the past 40 years, i am undecided?

After 40 years of marriage it's probably best to stick with her.

Boom boom

I have massive sympathy with the situation, but it's easy to say you're not really bothered what other clubs are charging - I guess you are bothered about us competing with them on the pitch for league places and trophys, for securing the best talent both in the academy and for the first team etc etc. 

Our prices are still cheaper than Wolves, Brighton and Newcastle let alone the elite clubs we're hoping to catch. 

There's definitely a valid argument that the PL has ruined English football - it's one I subscribe to myself.  But notwithstanding this it's where most fans want us to compete and unfortuantely this is the cost of that.  It's a bit shit, but it's the way it is.
