Silly little marketing ploy saying season tickets are capped at 18,500. Basically sales have bottomed out and they are trying to suck another load in before Hamer is announced as going.

By co-incidence we are limiting those and there are less than a 1,000 left to buy...

Very odd. I guess with their being less available for those who dont have season tickets, DK expects the rise in demand for walk ups to make up for the increase in price. I reckon walk ups will probably sell out most games.

So in short for me and the Mrs,
Cat A £74 per game
CatB £60
Cat C £48
These are for seats away from the decent atmosphere .
Add on Petrol, parking F&B, it makes for an expensive afternoon for 8/10 games a season.

If you attended 10 games you would be better getting a season ticker wouldn't you especially as only Cat C games are midweek

Most clubs cap STs , Ipswich for example at 21000

Ours would appear to be 20,000 if the next 1000 sell

I guess he is trying to get a few more to buy now before the season starts so they are locked in

I reckon most games will hit that. I'd be surprised if we didn't get around 4/5k most games walk up

I think we will average about 23,000 /24,000 which imo will be brilliant

Unless we storm the league from the start that is

If they count the ST every match, would we not be close to that anyway as a minimum with an average 3k away following?
Click to expand...
If we do sell the next 1000 you'd imagine that's 20,000 including premium ST sales minimum before anything .. I'd be interested to see how many away fans attended games at the arena last season, then we'd have to account for there being a couple of bigger clubs this year ..

Probably financially, it’s a close run thing but knowing we will be out of the country for maybe 13 games we didn’t want to leave two empty seats unused.

Either way , I believe we will have our highest average attendance since the 1979/1980 this season - 44 years

I'm a non season ticket holder for various non football reasons and tbh pricing is much as I expected. My only gripe is that senior concession age has now risen to 65 . My only consolation for reaching the 60 age milestone last November was cheaper football tickets . Thanks Doug.

I think they've always brought a half decent following here, it's relatively local and piss easy to get to

I’ve always had deep pockets and short arms. I’m happy I have a fixed price for the next 5 years. Looking forward to this season.

If anyone thinks Cov tickets are expensive it's pretty shit if you are a Sheffield Wednesday fan.

Going to brilliant next season with the stadium full most weeks, get the atmosphere going like usual and we'll win 18+ home games imo. I can't wait for the season to start now.

Why on earth do they have 7 different categories, are they playing in a different Championship to the rest of us?

[/QUOTE]
Very good question. They are well supported and do have a big catchment area ( I live in Sheffield). But the supporters I've spoken too are pissed off at the prices (£595 for the cheapest season ticket ) for a club who are most likely to be shit and in a relegation dogfight

If you can only go to half a dozen games with a couple of youngsters, jsb membership (which went up by quite a bit), is not worth it, which is a shame.
Looks like I will get the adult and under 18 tickets when I can.
Hopefully they make single tickets available for all fixtures out soon, as I already know which weekends I can attend.

Are they still doing the match packages, if they are that will be the cheaper option

We didn't get that sort of walk up last season when we had 5000 fewer ST holders and prices were cheaper. Many of those walk ups will now have season tickets anyway. For the odd game perhaps, but not often.

I assume were well past the £5 tickets to try and fill the stadium again?

Feel like £35 would've been fair for genuinely big games from the fan's perspective.

Think £37 looks and feels sh*t. JSB tickets are what I expected. Cat B and C feel about right.

I haven't seen anything advertised . I might be wrong but I recall reading somewhere that they were scrapping these.
