king canary 7,603 Posted November 16, 2017 Ha!It does tie into a more serious question that I have asked before though- if we''re going with this self funding model and it leads to a few years of mid-table Championship football then how can we can continue to justify our prices?According to the BBC survey our cheapest season ticket is the most expensive in the division, despite being frozen for a few years. That can''t last if we stay at this level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other clubs who have a lower % will set their prices accordingly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted November 16, 2017 It will be justified by the take up ie the market will determine pricing and I''m sure the club is well able to adjust prices to adapt to (and stimulate) demand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,603 Posted November 16, 2017 It''ll be a tough balancing act though- our revenue is quite reliant on ticket sales so any drop off will be felt keenly. I''m just not as certain as others that our support will hold up through a lean spell. Could obviously be wrong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThorpeCanary 71 Posted November 16, 2017 I feel a comparison of the median adult season price would be more interesting. Not trying to make excuses but aside from having obstructed views in the corners you get a decent view of the match and unlike some clubs there’s no seats high in the sky or in wooden stands either.That said. Ipswich’s cheapest being the third most expensive while half filling their stadium each week is superb! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SwindonCanary 455 Posted November 16, 2017 It''s so high due to the demand and needing the income, It would be nice if they gave those same fans a discount when back in the Premiership. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDD In The Fine City 1 Posted November 16, 2017 Not only the highest cheapest ticket in the championship but also the 8th highest in the country, are you getting value for money? I''ve got a bastard great pillar in my view, I''d love to see Deliar dare raise prices after the crap served up this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted November 16, 2017 Just think of all that money we would now be getting if the club had had a bit more ''hambition'' and increased the ground to 35,0008000 more tickets at £500 a pop..... that''s £4m or so a year, knock off bit for discounts and it''s still plenty of moneywho needs an ''hinvestor'' when you can build you way to success Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
