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.

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

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 .

So thankyou , its too expensive

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

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...

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?

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

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

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

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.

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

You know we’re still a loss making club?

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

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

Cheer up mate!

Except they won’t.

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