Google Bot 3,351 Posted July 7, 2023 Anyone else see this floating around? £59 for Cat A home tickets in their South Stand. I wonder what they'll charge our travelling supporters, and if we'd be classed as cat A or it's limited to Leeds, Leicester etc. Either way, that's quite some price considering many people are trying to watch their spending.

essex canary 515 Posted July 7, 2023 Perhaps NCFC will confirm that they have taken our crown as the most expensive? Their accounts are far from clear in that they haven't specifically reported Broadcasting Income. Overall Turnover is low compared to ours in the non-parachute 2019 environment. Gate money per head could still be up there with ours in the recent past and likely to surpass it if, as seems to be the case, they are likely to exploit their upward curve.

Why would Norwich City confirm, i presume by way of an official statement that Sheffield Wednesday are the most expensive in the Championship ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We will probably retain our title anyway. Whilst Wednesday's casual prices are high, there is nothing to match our Lounge Season Ticket Prices and their range of Season Ticket concessions is clearly wider than ours.

As i pointed out those prices are not their final deadline day prices. The prices above increased to what they describe as ' the next phase ' on 26th June. I am sure you will pass comment also on the £50 membership.Good dicounts i will admit but £50 upfront is a tad steep don't you think ?

shefcanary 2,503 Posted July 7, 2023 Those casual ticket prices for the Owls have got the Wendies well and truly up in arms There go their chances of sell outs, not that the chairman gives a ****! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's crazy when you think it's one of their strengths with the size of stadium, and it would be far better to fill it than rinse home supporters. Do they close areas off and sell it to advertising instead, perhaps? Also there was talk a number of years ago of them pushing for world cup matches and increasing capacity, I guess all of that is on the back burner now(?).

Also there was talk a number of years ago of them pushing for world cup matches and increasing capacity, I guess all of that is on the back burner now(?). I've always hated Hillsborough, probably because of the predominance of blue (which I strangely have an aversion to), as it makes it soulless when the stadium is half full and that depressing colour dominates. The owner is a bit mad tbf, any advertising at the ground is for his own "companies" (in inverted commas because they tend to be corporate shells rather than real operating ones). He seems to be more interested in building his own cult than improving the team. In reality, after '89, the club should either have rebuilt the whole ground or relocated. With climate change it is susceptible to flooding which means the pitch is very difficult to maintain. The Kop and its facilities is a joke of a stand, only diehards who have tanked up elsewhere sit there, so it can only ever generate ticket revenue. The chairman is taking that knowledge to the extreme it seems. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Top corner 230 Posted July 8, 2023 Bramall Lane & Hillsborough are really outdated, I’m all for old school grounds, but certainly in the away ends at these two grounds they don’t keep up with the maintenance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
