essex canary 504 Posted April 22 That is a liberty too. At least note though their baseline ST price even with the increase is about 25% less than NCFC and Leicester is a reasonably thriving City. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wikipedia GVA by English County - Leicestershire 35,172 dollars, Norfolk 31,806 dollars. Convert to £ sterling. Minimum season ticket price 1.4 pence in the pound for Leicester compared to 2.1 pence in the pound for Norwich. That is why NCFC have to rely on so many out of county ST holders and why the Norfolk public won't hoover up casual seats at even more expensive prices for run of the mill matches.

TIL 1010 4,776 Posted April 23 (edited) Interesting to note that Nottingham Forest are increasing their cheapest season ticket from £465 to £550 which is an increase of 18%. Now that is what you call a stick to wave around. Edited April 23 by TIL 1010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't remember off the top of my head, but it was on one of the tabs in the Excel file. I think Leicester was line 66 and Norwich was line 95. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At County level though you would need to include row 67 for Leics which reads far more favourably than rows 96 & 97 which would need to be included for Norfolk.

JonnyJonnyRowe 451 Posted April 23 18 hours ago, essex canary said: @Well b back FYi Leicestershire GDP is around 10% higher than Norfolk GDP Since when has the ONS published GDP by county? Region, yes, but not county. Anyway, with your only business turning over just £7710 in 2023 and just £11130 in 2022, you might want to consider increasing your GHP (Gross Household Product) rather than trolling on forums all day. Perhaps gives us an insight into why you are so desperate to see that mythical £100 share price and why you are worried about whether you'll be leaving your son enough money for him to be able to afford a season ticket.
