Season Tickets - 2022/23

[astonvilla82]

As 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.

Perhaps now it will cost alot more fans might not accept crappy performances so much

My rise is £333 to £531!!!

Which kidney do I sell to renew???

Where were you sat?
I thought cheapest last season were £370

I'm in L1 Lower Holte in the corner with a restricted view. The previous price was also based on early birding while in the Championship, I think. I need to double check: I only saw the new season price plan for the whole ground before I went into shock.

BTW, that's shocking about the PIP change PGW, it's hard enough to get an award for that in the first place, despite what the media say. I wonder if the club has looked at the Disability Discrimination Act.

I in L1, restricted view from 333 to 470?,

Even with a multi pint pourer they would get it wrong. If they want to 'simplify' things start with the catering.  Stop pouring bottles/cans into PLASTIC cups. Just give the can out or a plastic bottle like before it's absolutely ridiculous

Or better still, give you an intravenous drip.

To avoid a quotathon.

Andy & PGW - the disabled question has not to my knowledge been raised at an FCG.

Just an extra £185 for me, ho hum. I'll pay it, but it will take some sweet talking and lots of extra odd jobs and tasks as a result.

Maybe I'm a scaredy-cat but there's absolutely no way I'll be telling SWMBO that my season ticket is going up by more than a ton!

Re: Disabled fans and PA tickets! As far as I am aware most clubs in the PL and EFL are moving to you needing the higher rate of PIP to be eligible for a free ticket for your assistant.

Absolute disgrace
Imagine if Doug Ellis pulled a stunt like this sitting 13th in the table. Be absolute uproar.

I remember the protest days and people gathering in sports halls to protest when we were sitting 8th with very reasonably priced season tickets.

Huge backlash across social media but the club won't care, purslow is like our current Tory Government,it's like they enjoy seeing the working class suffer

You haven't got one anyway, you told us last year, so why are you bothered?

He's probably wanking into a mug and having an emotional moment whilst watching the Rangers match at the moment.

The club’s responses have been pathetic though. All we need is honesty like, we know we’ll sell out of season tickets no matter how much we put them up by. Suck it up suckers!!

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.

And we're still one of the cheapest in the PL.  The increases are a bad look in the cuttent climate, but it's a product of how cheap ST have been for the last few seasons.

We are still cheaper than Wolves, Brighton and Crystal Palace.  So yes, it's a bit shit, but I don't see how it's a disgrace.

Well we may well be relatively "cheap" in the current standings but to ask another ton for my seat is sadly a bridge too far.I think the club are misreading the climate and would have been better advised to freeze prices.
