Any game not on a Saturday is B or C, except West Brom, penultimate game on a Friday night. That's probably sensible. First game against Oxford should be C to fill the place.

Norwich Cat A is baffling. Am I missing something?

Luton and Burnley, despite being in the PL last season, should never be a Cat A game. Two of the smallest clubs in the division.

I don't agree with whole concept.

If you legitimise concept, how are Burnley and Luton considered A?

Norwich category A also baffling but more understandable than Burnley or Luton.

Stoke charging 25 against Coventry, whereas Coventry charging 37 against Luton or Burnley.

because they’ve just come down from the prem and are likely to be top 6 this season, so will probably be big games? Not very hard to understand.

I may have missed it, but no reference to ticket prices in the family zone made available through the ticket exchange? I can't imagine they will be at full price? Perhaps they'll announce that later.

Wasn't a fan of this structure last season and view hasn't changed, especially as we're really scraping the cat A barrell this season. I get we need to maximise revenues, and ST prices are fine, but these are a bit out. Just my view, but if people pay it then can't argue too much.

They're the same as last year. See there's already people complaining, were they genuinely expecting prices to go down?

No, but there's doesn't need to be so many Cat A games, especially with the TV fixtures.

6.30 a pint now in the CBS too.

I'm pretty certain is was around £5.50 last season? Possibly slightly lower?

As good as could be expected given prices are the same as last year. Still too high IMO though, especially as it's highly likely hardly any of the games will be a 3pm Sat KO

Mad that they have made Plymouth Argyle on Boxing Day a Cat A. Blatant cash in. Have to feel for Plymouth fans.
Click to expand...

Boxing Day will always be a Cat A game as it’s generally one of the highest attended games of the season. £37 isn’t unreasonable and given that we have around 22k STHs, it’s impacting an ever smaller % of fans. Frankly, we’re getting less reliant on day trippers and walk ups. At some point, I believe there’ll be waiting lists get STs.

I do feel for Plymouth fans because of the travel time on a family holiday. Going to football games is an expensive hobby.

We’ve frozen season tickets and the clubs will pass on as much of those ‘costs’ to the more ‘casual’ fans - this is how. Don’t like it? Commit to a ST where the product is still underpriced.

Yeah it's calender dictates, whether you want can imply it for the rest, probably not until it's an event in itself!!

Received an email yesterday saying Oxford home tickets are to be posted due to requiring further testing for e-tickets

Worked fine for me at the Everton game last week

£200 and the rest. A standard seat in the lower tier at Wembley to see Taylor Swift was £350 no concessions. Its a joke.

I’d expect either a personal show or personal services for that!
My lads into F1 just the practice days over £100 he and the grandson then paid over 60 for baseball hats not just the PL but all over the celeb world it’s a rip off

Exactly. No fan would turn promotion down. But perhaps we need to appreciate what we have actually got more?

Competitive in a very competitive league, which provides a decent level of football. Great atmosphere and a chance of winning most weeks.

Oh OK - i haven't figured out when Easter is yet. But it doesn't really make much difference - it would be A no matter what day it was on, and rightly so.

Why would you not increase it when people not literally, actually queue up for it?
It's madness to pay it but given the demand, would be madness not to increase it and even consider another hike half way through the season. And make the containers smaller.

Don’t think it will come to the championship, some clubs would not be able to afford it. And if it did come in all grounds would have to comply. Hope not anyway, kills the spontaneous celebration

Just for reference, Norwich are charging A+ (whatever that is) at £40, £30 and £25.
"A" games are £36, £25 and £21 , I guess it's all.more or less the same unless you are Leeds of course.

I thought I read somewhere that Leeds are adopting the one rate £30 max for all away supporters. Home fans are pissed off because they still have to pay the higher rate. Happy to be corrected if I dreamt this lol

Nor should they or other concessions, I hope the Gov't pass some legislation to deal with this treating them like a bloody commodity!
