I liked Sendo who at least pretended to like us before bitching about us back home.

You're boring us now. Get some new material.

Withington Red remains my favourite troll.
In fairness he's answering my post.

Flin - I know for a fact that there were loads of people in the cheapest seats who were not the poorest fans.  The % increase is of course huge and I agree they could probably have staggered it, but I don't necessarily disagree with bring more balance to the pricing structure.

I guess they wanted to do it in one go as the optics of kicking people out the North for the redev and then asking for a huge increase on their tickkets at the same time would have been bad, so they decided to take the pain now.

Have some decency about you, mocking the working class and families who were PUSHED OUT by Purslow and our Billionaire owners

And those of you celebrating selling out season tickets have some bloody respect for those that won't see us live who were there in the Championship. I never said we would not sell out I said the 'waiting list' was hyped up to bring in their elimination of those in zone 6 . l

Hi Flin - just my regular reminder that we have the 10th cheapest season tickets in the Premier League. 

Playing devil’s advocate more than agreeing with Flin, but we are charging top 10 Premier League season ticket prices yet we haven’t finished top 10 in the Premier League for over a decade.

Our expectations are top ten. If they consistently fail to deliver then they'd have more of a case to answer. Personally, I'd rather they'd resisted major changes to the price structure until we are filling 50,000 on a regular basis, but you can see that they've thought we shouldn't have some of the cheapest seats in the league when we are splurging £100 million every summer.

When we got relegated, I moved to the cheapest seats out of spite.

That's true, but we've spent like a top 4 club tbf.  I also think we'll be addressing this point this season.

I went and sat in the director's box. It was always empty that year for some reason.

They were also priced affordable because you had a poor view/got wet/poor leg room etc


My zone 4 season ticket seat is literally 3 seats along from the old zone 6. I’ve stood in L8 & the view is fine, the leg room the same as the rest of the Holte, & the shape of the roof means that the whole of the front of the Lower Holte gets wet when it rains..

Me too! ….but when the General was here & I suggested we extended that partition across the outside of the Lower Holte for better shelter, everyone told me he had more important things to think about! (Like ours and stuff)

Yeah, like letters from Siralex.

I'm one of the zone 6 'survivors', as we'd like to be known going forward, that our friend is so vociferously campaigning for. My seat is on the back row of the North Stand, has a fantastic view and also a back parcel shelf behind it to place coats, food and drink, undocumented migrants etc.

My row and the four rows in front were categorised as such, and I've no idea what the motivation for the policy was unless it was designed by someone with cardiovasculour issues, as I see no disadvantage in sitting there from anywhere else in the stand.

And I'm absolutely guaranteed not to get wet.

Do season ticket holders also purchase a membership, is there any point to that?

The reason I ask is that I managed to get a season ticket this year after being on the waiting list, but unbeknown to me my membership was on auto renew so they have took another £42 out today so now I have both.

Is it worth emailing them to request a refund for the membership you think or is there any advantage for having both?
I used to have 'Claret Membership' in order to get the (limited) priority on tickets. I was also on the ST waiting list.

The Claret Membership renewed automatically last summer and then a few days later I was advised that I could apply for a ST - which I did. I emailed to cancel the Claret Membership and they refunded me in a few days. Actually decent service. UTV.

From looking at the seat map it seems there was a 60% survival rate in some Zone 6 areas.

I guess category A games in the Trinity Road central could well be priced at £65 next season

Now this is done and dusted could a moderator lock it then spend the next 9 months moving the dates on a year so we can have the same nonsense all over again when they put the 23-24 season tickets on sale.

Power to the proletariat.

But it's really nice for about 15 seconds.
