Matchday Ticket Prices (11 Viewers)

[pusbccfc]

Im suprised how many of our fans will just back the club no matter what , only until it effects them though i imagine

We have an odd fanbase

There's a lot on twitter that would be the first to moan when Ipswich charge us £42 to sit in the top tier.

Maybe they do .. i dont actually care

Thing is you talk like the club is profiteering when it’s actually making a significant loss

 

[wingy]

Somebody should tell derby they are missing a trick

They'll cotton on once they have the product on the pitch I think, you see I think there should be protection in place for children, and even their folks but society is not of this opinion anymore, but football will adopt all of the civilities needed to meld a community required to keep feeding the monster?

If the clubs only way of making money is through me and you on matchday , then they need to rethink their business model .

 

[bigfatronssba]

So thankyou , its too expensive

Not arsed about your weird anti child comment because kids are our future , end of story

If you can’t afford something, don’t buy it. It’s as simple as that.

Kids are our future, which is why there are around 18 home games this season where these high prices won’t apply. Anyone who can’t afford the A+ games can take their kids to these instead

They are losing money because players are being paid obscene amounts of money.

That's another debate though...

Ah thats kind

It's the price we're willing to pay for acting like little boys in adult bodies

If you wanted to squeeze profit out the club you’d sell the likes of Rudoni/Wright etc and pocket the cash. Is that what you’d prefer?

 

[bigfatronssba]

I think people need to decide if they want a competitive team or not.

If you’re expecting Doug to fund all the costs associated with a decent team, whilst you pay 3 farthings for your ticket then you’re delusional

Id prefer the club to not try and squeeze supporters on matchday for as much as they can afford

 

[bigfatronssba]

Ah thats kind

What’s kind? Expecting people to manage their own finances to suit their circumstances?

 

[SkyBlueChris]

What about the clubs who have decent season ticket prices and decent matchday prices ?

They are further down the league

The team has been competitive for several years what you on about

This goes for merchandise too I reckon. £90 for a shirt with printing is utterly ridiculous in my opinion but apparently the going rate.

 

[Evo1883]

Prices are determined pre season , nobody saw us being top like this

 

[bigfatronssba]

The team has been competitive for several years what you on about

People have been moaning about ticket prices for several years

 

[Evo1883]

What’s kind? Expecting people to manage their own finances to suit their circumstances?

Most people already do that

 

[Evo1883]

We can argue all day


The prices are too expensive imho , kids prices are appalling

@David O'Day told you people are saying this

 

[bigfatronssba]

Most people already do that

So they buy the tickets that they can afford.

I have absolutely no problem with that principle

We're now back to asking why the pints are £3.60 if it's about making money for our successful team

 

[mmttww]

so if I'm following, if we charge £35 for a kid to go to a game at Xmas vs. f*cking Swansea, we're more likely to get promoted? Got it.

 

[bigfatronssba]

To get people into the habit of drinking at the ground.
Then the prices will go up

You got it.

That extra money pays for a week of Simms wages!

 

[SkyBlueChris]

Very true! but having a well run club thats maximising revenue surely helps us achieve this?

 

[Evo1883]

Then people will fuck back off again

Why stop at 45 , keep going

 

[bigfatronssba]

No we’re just less likely to end up back in f*cking Northampton.

You know we’re still a loss making club?

 

[David O'Day]

@David O'Day told you people are saying this

doesn't count if someone says it afterwards does it

the desperation from you today is ripe

 

[pusbccfc]

The concourses and fan zones were already busy. They'll be back to their old stomping grounds when they return to £6.20.

 

[Evo1883]

Ah right , so now we are going back to northampton if we dont charge a fortune for kids

 

[David O'Day]

We're now back to asking why the pints are £3.60 if it's about making money for our successful team

do you know the finances behind this and how much money we make?

 

[pusbccfc]

the desperation from you today is ripe

If I was that desperate, I would have quoted the two posts from yesterday saying a similar thing.

Cheer up mate!

 

[bigfatronssba]

Then people will fuck back off again

Except they won’t.

Why would they “fuck back off” to somewhere charging the same amount?
