Means Some Away Fans at the CBS will be paying £45 too, way over the top in my opinion, I couldn't afford me and my 17 year old daughter to pay them prices at an away game £80 !!!

It'll be interesting to see how many A+ and D matches there are. A-B are only marginally higher than last year and C is the same.

this catagory based pricing is really starting to annoy me, many families will only be able to afford a lower cat game, and the rich ones can see the bigger names, shame really.

I can see some away games being expensive especially the teams that are being charged £45 at the CBS, doesn't Doug realise there is a cost of living crisis !!!

I would love to hear his rationale for these prices - they are simply too high and. It sustenance- it will lose a couple of thousand on the grounds at those A+ games

This is the bigger issue for me.

An away fan having to pay £35 to bring an U14 alongside paying £45 for an adult is absolutely disgusting.

A+ games....

Birmingham, Leicester, Boxing Day and last game of the season (depending where we are in the table you'd like to think)

D games....

Midweek league games until end of Feb you'd hope

Obscene pricing.

Put the few hundred season ticket left back on sale and they would be snapped up in mins.

Be interesting to see games fall into which category.

Thats 500 less on average on our gates right away.

Isn’t there a £30 cap on premier league away tickets as well?

I would love to say it doesn't affect me, but I can see other clubs reciprocating and with three of us to pay for that's a chunk of money. Yes we're not forced to go before anyone says it, but it's what we do as a family and choose as our 'entertainment'.

Lots of these will be moved too for TV so less convenient times for other fans to travel to us and I can see a few trying to boycott it, especially those with long distances who have played us before recently.

Shame.

Hull and QPR at Cat B is just naughty. Clearly some special start of season pricing there because they certainly are not in the second tier of clubs that would be an attractive fixture

I suspect its simple supply and demand. If we've sold a fuckton of season tickets and have a minimal number of tickets left for matchday sales, and sold out games last season, then you ramp the price up. They have only announced categories for the first few games so if the top categories don't sell they won't use them again.

Its a tough one as instinct is to go 'that's way too much' but a few years back football tickets would be pretty much in line with concert tickets. And now if you see a gig at Brum Academy and it's 'only' £60 people refer to it as cheap. So I guess the argument is should the price of football tickets move with the market or be artificially supressed and I can see arguments on both sides.

Absurd prices.

We will get punished by other clubs charging our away fans the same.

We kicked off at Leeds and now have done the same.

While now off sale, purchasing a Season Ticket remains the best value way for Sky Blues supporters to back their team in the 2025/26 campaign.

Block B and E - the few rows in front of the hospitality areas that used to be covered in banners. Good view but no hospitality- just the poor service in the west stands tiny bar. Oh and you get soaked there when it rains.
