Season ticket prices

And rightly so imo. We took an almighty leap in prices when we got promoted to the PL and although the club makes out its doing the honourable thing by keeping them frozen for the past 5 seasons we are paying PL prices for championship football.

Aren't we paying the same prices as we did in the Championship promotion season? It was frozen when we went into the PL I thought but obviously more expensive per game as it drops from 23 to 19 games.

A good proportion of our ST holders are over 65 and as such are paying considerably less than the amounts quoted.

indeed. And also, supply and demand. Lots of things are more expensive down here. Houses, parking….. all for the same economic reason of demand exceeding supply. Up to the punter to decide if it’s value or price gouging.

Yes, basically prices have been frozen for 7 years. Be interesting to see what we pay for away games. Back in that promotion season quite a number of games were over £40 - Ipswich and Norwich to name a couple I recall.
 
Kings Lynn are getting stick on the Twitter for being the most expensive in the National League at £420. By contrast Eastleigh charge £180 and kids get in for nothing.

£18 per game to watch Premier League football and some of the best players in the world seems like pretty good value for money to me.
Ditto £15 per game to watch entertaining Championship football. How much do you pay to watch a 2 hour concert these days?
 
One point being missed is the size of DC.All our seats could be considered 'pitchside',whereas bigger grounds will have stands further away from the pitch and therefore a 'worse view'.
Seats 'pitchside ' will obviously be more costly than seats further away from the pitch.
 
We get rinsed for tickets.

There's only a handful of clubs whose most expensive ticket is more than our cheapest.

Not sure why so many jump in to defend it.

Not sure how your maths works there 550/19=£29 550/23=£24
 
...I guess we all have an opinion on ST prices but I do have some sympathies with another season of Championship football and with the quality of the team...but still having to pay PL prices...but all the parachute money goes to players and none of it is apportioned to the fans expenses...we just have to suck on it apparently, still nice to get a few words welcoming us back (and the money!)
