IPSWICH awayday rip off £38.50

[Rupethebear 0]

Just picked up the tickey application form today and noticed the tickets in Area E are £38.50. This is a complete rip off, why are these so much? Are these the most expensive seats in the Championship?

Anybody know where Area E is in relation to the rest of the away end as we have tickets in E as well as V1/V2 and the family area below.

Because they know people will want to go? And will sell out, so they can charge a bit more...

I believe some away fans have complained about our prices...

Checked the scum website and we appear to have half of block E which is in the upper tier adjacent to the blocks we already have. Can only assume the price hike is because they''re central seats. Obscene price though,

Didn''t get a form today, what''s the deadline for applications to be in?

Thanks for the update, we have until 2nd April to get the applications in.......just think the price is a joke, we should have told them we didn''t want the tickets at that price......they can''t sell them to their own fans!

Don''t want to pay £38.50 don''t go then, the Celtic v Rangers cup game was £40 with no concessions and they still got 57,847 through the gate.

......what a silly comment, thats like saying we are the biggest club in England, for comaparison that''s like Man U v Liverpool.

This is the Championship, its the principal of it, they want us to help pay Bullard''s wages!

For those who are querying the different ticket prices its £33 for the majority of the seats V1/V2 ( 1300 seats ) £38.50 for Block E ( central seats - 500) and £28 for the lower tier family seats ( 500 )

I do agree £38.50 is a rip off, we charged them £33, maybe we should have done the same ?

[/quote]Maybe Hull City should charge us the £31 we charged them for tickets instead the £23 they are charging us? Yes Ipswich are ripping us off, but NCFC are just as guilty of overcharging away fans.

just posted this on 606,disgusting price.I wouldnt mind if it was in a decent stand but the Cobbold stand is awful.They should hang their heads in shame for this.

[GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,734]

I dont blame Ipswich at all for this . This is the one game of their season that they know they will sell out their ground, and with it not being on sky , they know people will pay. If your not someone who wants to pay this amount , there will be hundreds of people behind you who will..........especially if there is anything riding on the game!

[grantroederdisaster 0]

Yes its a rip off but they know they''ll sell the tickets for this game!

The large admission prices at Portakabin Road are a reason why they get 6000 less than us on average!

I hope that Mcna(st)lly looks at the S cum and realise that over the top casual ticket prices you can get away with in a good season but not if the team are struggling!

Stop complaining and let someone else go if you dont want to pay the price

Charge what they want because english football fans will pay almost any price for big games.I admire the germans. Dortmund vs Schalke. Fans not happy at the prices. Refused to pay, empty away end and they wont be trying that again.Unfortunatly english fans are selfish and dont see the long term. Not a chance I will pay £38 for a ticket.

Concessions £60

U16 £65

U20 £100

Perhaps we get a match day programme and a cup of tea at half time included in our package!! However they are offering free escort service before and after the game!!

I have written to ITFC and asked them why their prices are so high. Like others have commented, it''s hardly like The Jarrold Stand, we spoil away fans, the one at Portmand Road is years old and you don''t even get free cushions.

......however I must say 3 points at Portman Road is priceless!!!

I quite agree we over charge away fans and our own fans for matchday tickets, especially kids in full time education or students who are 16 and over and have to pay full adult prices.

Most clubs have special prices for students and 16-18 year olds which is where we are sadly lacking.

[Bradwell Yellow 0]

It''s because us students are seen as the scroungers! When infact a lot of us pay our taxes like the rest.

Shocking prices though, yes we are as guilty but they''ve chucked another £5.50 on top. Something has to pay Bullard''s wages i suppose.

Does anyone know if they will put the application online? as I''m currently in Nottingham so can''t collect one

[paul moy 235]

Boycott it.  Paying these pices only encourages them. [:@]

thank you

When do they stop taking applications? Does my chance of getting a ticket depend on how close to the deadline I give my application in?What''s the different between Area E and Area V1/V2?Thanks!

[e10_yellow 0]

Applications open until April 2nd, doesn''t make a difference when you give in the form. Area E is the block next to V1/V2, closer to the halfway line hence the ''premium'' price for central seats.

[e10_yellow 0]

Applying for more than 1 ticket shouldn''t make a difference - just make sure that none of the customer numbers are in a lower priority group than you, for example if you had four people on your form, three group 3 and one group 4, the whole application would be treated as group 4.Don''t know about your other question.
