was looking on hotdeals uk and noticed blackburn are doing there season tickets for £225,to me it just goes to show how little they rely on gate receipts in the premier league,wigan are also doing theirs for £250.. got to be a good way to get a decent crowd

In short......no. we lose enough money as it is! And considerin Paul Clouty's history, he left both Ipwich and Derby charging much higher prices than they did when he started there. Cant be coincidence can it?? Probably a good job he wasnt here before our prices were decided!!

Not a criticism of him though as he seems a decent and genuine guy!

QPR have put their prices up today, can't remember the exact figure but its gone up by something like £14 a game.

If we ever got to the prem again, the board would rub their hands together in glee.

there is no way the board would drop season ticket prices, they are here to make the most money they can.

I have no doubt prices would go up by about a tenner.

Obviously the market would have more appeal, is more expensive to be in, requires more money spent by the club to be in and cost are higher all over the place so yes of course the price would increase and rightly so. how much is another story. QPR have ravaged the fans and raised them 40% on average. They know that even in the big league they will still not get a full house week in week out so they will grab what they can. A boutique club? Hmm I see what they mean by that. perhaps we can name a few others who are boutique clubs in the premiership?

Wigan? Blackburn? Bolton? I'm sure you can think of one or two more...

You have to remember there are less games so clubs amounts per game would go up even if they charge the same. I would think about £350 would be fair if we got up.

With the fan base and the people in the town who would come week in week out to watch us in the prem' - I think the ticket prices would rise marginally.

It's a case of this massive if. We can't hope or pray or even consider what we will do in coming seasons - Baby steps, one step at a time.

I'll worry about the price when we achieve the promotion.
