It’s simple…
We all know STs need to go up with inflation as it is and the Tories continuing to destroy our economy, but just decide a percentage and put all STs up by that percentage. If it’s 10% then every single season ticket goes up by 10%
The increases announced mean the premium adult season ticket in the (your company’s name here) Upper Stand has gone up from £375 to £395. That’s an increase of 5.33%
Accompanied Junior season tickets in the “non-premium” areas of the ground have gone up from £50 to £70. That’s an increase of 40%.
How are these increases fair when compared to each other?
It is good to see the club finally selling STs before the current season has finished even if it’s only a few days.
I agree with your point, but I guess the club see it as losing money for every junior ticket sold that could have gone to a full paying adult. Not saying that I agree with that and young fans are the adult fans of the future, so need to be encouraged. |

Any details on match day prices for comparison?
Standard Upper ST works out at almost £21 a game so presumambly a bit north of that.

Seems to be a fair few people gleefully claiming that we won't sell as many as this season and using that as a bit of a stick to beat the manager/owners with.
And they'll probably be right, seeing as it's very common to sell more season tickets on the back of a promotion and to see a bit of a decline the following season when in the same league.
Happened after 2016, it'll happen again. Totally normal.
No glee from me Sam just realism , I hope we sell more tickets and more than happy with 1878. |

17 quid a game if you get an early bird ST. I would imagine it will be 23 quid match day price in the upper. |

Our junior pricing is a function of an inadequate stadium that has lacked any meaningful positive investment since about 1982. The conversion to all-seater was forced upon the club but the club knew it was coming. It’s shite and we are paying for it now. There is no option but to increase accompanied junior tickets by a higher percentage. The price is still less than 4 walk-ups.
One innovation would be to allow a junior ticket to be upgraded to an adult for a discounted sum (a tenner) for all Tuesday night games.

I did say that the prices was for comparison and for the main stand but the Kop and family stand are lower,i will buy one if we get promoted but won't if in non league purley due to the standard of clubs that will be at ML
But don’t you go to see YOUR team rather than the opposition? |

Absolutely Woz but I don't really want to pay for a ticket in advance to watch Notts v Dorking or whoever on a cold November night,it's all about how many games that I think that I will attend and every one that I miss makes the season ticket less attractive to shell out all at once |

Good luck in the play-offs Chalky. I hope you make it up as it would be a travesty if you didn't, after the season you have just had. Just make sure your players play right through til the final whistle this season.  I know we make it up last season having finished 6th, but we were nowhere near as far behind in the table as the 6th team will be this season. |

County will reach 109 points if they win their final game at home to York, which they probably will. Absolutely mind blowing to think you could achieve such a total and still not win the league. They will be comfortably the best ever team in any play-off campaign in terms of points finished ahead of their rivals (currently almost 40 points clear of the last play-off position and nearly 30 clear of 3rd). Psychologically though, how will missing out on automatic promotion with such an incredible record, on the back of what we did to them 11 months ago, affect them? They’ve got the footballing ability to win the play-offs at a canter, it would seem. Have they got the mental resilience? |

They're getting beaten by a scrappy goal bundled in from a Jordan Cropper throw-in. Barnet promoted despite finishing 30 points behind them. It's so inevitable I don't know why we're pretending otherwise.
