Good Idea in principle but how do they offset it?Just seen this on the Forest Website. I think its a brilliant idea and would love to see Coventry go this far to help secure the next generation of supporters. If the club takes away the excuses, i'm sure fans will slowly return.
In a move to make top-class football in Nottingham more affordable for young fans, the club are introducing new pricing for supporters from the ages of four to 23. For the 2018-19 season, season cards for 4-11-year-olds will be just £10 – a £15 reduction from the current campaign. This will include entry into the young fans membership scheme, giving supporters exclusive access to a series of special events.
Prices for 12-17-year-olds will be just £50 – a £100 reduction on this season. The club are also introducing a new price band that will cover 18-23-year-olds. Priced at just £100 for the season, this will represent a £150 to £230 reduction for supporters depending on their age.
If we done this, it's only our U21s that would benefit from it really. As this season's prices, U13s were free and Forrest are charging a reduced rate of £10, U16s were less than £50 in the early bird. I think it's really the 18-21 bracket that this season were charged around £230ish from memory that would benefit!

Forgot about paying for JSB. Although I've never counted that as paying for JSB is worth it alone for the benefits. Kids Christmas party and Mascot alone are worth there weight in gold and he loves them so in my eyes, the ST is an added bonus on top of the aboveUnder 13s were only free with £25 JSB and £4.50 booking fee. Forest are charging a tenner, so effectively pay for one match and get the season free.
They need to come up with more offers for regular season ticket holders 30% off new shirts and things like that.
The other thing they need to look at is senior season ticket holders prices they start to early at 60 people who are using that deal are either still working or retired early so should be paying full price until 65 at least
Yes put it up for over 60's that should get more to come.
Some people think that they can charge what they like and people will still turn up.
Well there will be a surprise if we are still in L2 next season as a lot like me are unlikely to go.

Why does the multi millionaire who sits near me get a reduced price
So everybody over 60 is a millionaire?
I bet a lot have retired due to ill health.
There's plenty who aren't TGP.Why does the multi millionaire who sits near me get a reduced price
And your turn will come.There's plenty who aren't TGP.

Not all torch and I'm not sure I'm a baby boomer tbf.Good idea. Baby boomers get too much as it is. I would charge the over 60s double.
Not entirely stupid you know... although given our admin, we'd be thoroughly incapable of processing the simplest of efforts.That's it then
Let's means test it
In all seriousness, reducing the prices if enough sign up probably is a sensible thing to do. Sure it can't be beyond the wit of even us to work out how much you can reduce it by compared to getting the massive 4k at normal prices.What the club should do is announce s pricng policy but at the same time offer £120 if the club sell 25,000 season tickets. Allow a maximum of 3.000 under 16 at £50 on top of it. If it doesn’t happen revert to the original price. It’s £5 a game and announce £30 match day walk ups if the number is achieved.

I'd do more staggered efforts than yours though. Let's be honest, whatever we sell them at, we're not likely to get 25k sign up. Offer incentivised reductions at, say, 6k, 9k, 15k, 20k, 25k though and you might build some momentum, while also not looking deluded. Might also stand a better chance of actually getting to the 25k if you poke people a bit, and get a bit of a run on.It’s about what I’ve said. But there has to be a number achieved. The only thing the Ricoh offeres is huge capacity. Sell tickets from next month until May 31. If it’s not achieved revert to normal pricing and refund those who don’t want it. If you went to 5 games you’d break even from this season.
:emoji_thermometer_face:
They could pay the same they watch the same match and sit in the same seats.
As an alternative anybody that sits in block 20 over 18 pays full price if you want cheaper tickets they are in the corner ( have an oldies area:emoji_older_man::emoji_older_woman
We already pay full price in blocks 18 to 22.
Who the over 60’s
They need to review what they charge for kids as its not working.
I guess it's more emphasised for me as kids are in abundance at the rugby.
Not sure though if it's the sport or the culture of being more family friendly.
