I’m getting a bit lost with all this politics stuff.

Surely Heck is bang in line with 2 tier Kier in expecting those with the broadest shoulders to pay GA+ to subside the rest?

Who are 'the rest' given my ticket for Bayern would have cost £70 odd if I wasn't refusing to pay it?

It’s not to subsidise ‘the rest’ at all it’s to replace the GA plebs with the nirvana of a GA+ price paying only stadium. 

Nobody in GA should get carried with the thought that they want us there…we should be grateful they let us use their league one facilities stadium to watch ‘their’ wonderful team.

Now i get it, the GA crew subsidised the pish lapping around my feet at the Arsenal game.

Man U tickets were announced on X 12 minutes before they went on sale. I got an email 1 minute before they went on sale.

To be fair, the date has been in the diary for ages.

Visited Whitby today, in the grim north. Outside the toilets was a short, thick set man wearing a Make America Great Again baseball hat on back to front and a Stars and Stripes waistcoat.
As he made copious notes watching the punters pay 50p per piss I heard him muttering “this will work well in the Holte”.

I see a bit humour is lost on here.

But if you want a serious debate about strategic marketing and pricing then bring it on.

Heck isn’t a football parasite, he’s simply trying to get to a target income.  The more he gets from GA+, the cheaper he can price the ‘normal’ tickets.   

It’s not a difficult concept to get your head around - after all it’s always been cheaper to stand on the holte than sit in the upper trinity.

I think this is probably bollocks to be honest. The everyday tickets arent getting any cheaper whether more corporate is sold or not.

Correct and he is reducing the number of GA seats! Yes, he is reducing our capacity so he can squeeze more GA + in.  We are headed towards being an Arsenal or a Chelsea.

That maybe however, they hadn’t announced when they would be on sale and they’re now sold out unless you fork out for hospitality!

It’s called price gouging which is not a difficult concept to get your head around.
