maybe they are going to play in a different part of the country every week. get people in for one game before they realise how shit it is and stop going.

yep the alarm bells should be sounding for Charlton. what happen to Wasps state of the art new stadium in Sevenoaks? Oh wait, no fucker wants them there. someone should send them a map. rugby seems more morally bankrupt than football and that's saying something

The worst part is how much better we have it than they do in the US. Over there on top of everything else they control the own the radio stations as well!

They could also have added the extra dates immediately while people were still queuing. Not like they wouldn't have all been booked in with the venues. Seems to be the thing now to not do enough dates / venues to satisfy demand. Not just with huge shows like this, happens on much smaller tours...

can't lie, I'd be more than happy to be paying a pound a minute to watch us in the Champions League in the next 12 months

Do they really expect anyone to believe that? Whoever actually wrote it could have at least attempted to make it sound vaguely like something they might say

Maybe Doug can get us set up with this https://news.sky.com/story/english-football-will-face-enormous-opposition-over-dynamic-pricing-as-two-spanish-sides-adopt-controversial-system-13209461#:~:text=English%20football%20clubs%20are%20being%20warned

Must have been some big promises from pensioners around productivity improvements to get an above inflation raise!

I'd prefer it to be as cheap as possible but we have to be realistic. Are people really expecting a game against Spurs to be the game they decide to implement discounted tickets?

made it back to cov about 2am so the alarm going off for work this morning wasn't fun

Pretty sure Swift has used dynamic pricing in the past. She's also used what they call slow ticketing, which is setting face value of tickets so high shows only sell out right before the event, often when some of the tickets are discounted. This is going to be the problem with any sort of...

Looks more like its an idea from the Estonian side. There's older articles from a couple of weeks ago where one of their ministers talks about offering out their spare prison capacity to generate income. Can't imagine it would be cheap but something has to be done. Not sure how long we can run...

How would that work, wouldn't you have to staff them with British prison officers? We hardly have loads of those spare.

we were talking about that. general consensus was its now so expensive at home its not really a noticeable difference anymore when you go to 'expensive' places.

about £4 a pint at the arena

Ticketmaster have never given ticket pricing information in the queue whether dynamic pricing is in place or not. Always pissed me off as for a lot of tours there's zero pricing released before hand. Helps them jack the prices up and have people panic buy. Would be nice to see some changes, and...

That’s useful, will have to do some digging when I’m back. Just kind of seems common sense that if they say they can’t get you home on the day you’ve booked and paid for then they should have to cover the cost of someone else doing it but things are never that straightforward
