Say they were put on sale Monday, so no one knows what league we'd be in.

it really needs to be tiered - Corners 350 , ends 400 then 450 to 500 along the sides

Anything over £4-500 will absolutely kill it. If we don't go up we need to attract numbers, if we do then the marginal difference in revenue with £100m tv money isn't worth the short term gain. If anything I'd have them cheaper in Prem to pack the place out but I doubt we will.

Has to start with a 3 for me even £395 and psychologically better. Release them asap while everyone wants a ticket. It’s the perfect time after beating blues Saturday

Also guarantee a home playoff and Wembley ticket if we get there. Maybe get a few new ones sold

That's a nice idea. Could even charge an extra £100 and include the tickets, then if they don't get to Wembley a hidden premium. If they do the club will make plenty regardless. That could be early bird and then the same price without the tickets after early bird. Doubt our marketing are that forward thinking though.

If (when) we win on Saturday, they should be on sale ASAP with a guaranteed play off final ticket included in the price.
Pressuming we get to the final of course (which we will)

There has to be a balance that it will be value for money compared to paying every week.

£400 is what they were after Early Bird last year and £17.40 a ticket.
£500 for 23 games would make it just under £22 a ticket.
£600 is £26 a ticket.

Got to be careful not to kill the numbers. Over charging, particularly with the cost of living, will backfire. I noticed when we were at Blackburn the other week they were advertising their prices, £379 for adults and £89 for U18s. The club know we're not going to go anywhere else, so we will have to end up paying whatever figure they decide on. I just hope they are sensible.

Indeed, I was looking at a list of Premiership ST prices and many of course are tiered according to area, which is probably fair enough, plus some reflect affluence of the vicinity . Make them reasonable and most will renew and many others buy one.
Let’s not price out fans who can’t merit an ST either for match tickets.

There should also be a system introduced next year whereby ST seats can be recirculated and sold again if seats are not going to be used. I really suspect people are tying up prime seats by buying kids seats for next to nothing and then half the time they are not being used.

I have a feeling many people in the central blocks will qualify for senior discount anyway.

Will need a few more of you to be kind and donate a little bit of money otherwise won’t be able to help many out this year as fund is below £1,500 so far.

Hopefully when prices are set and people know what division then we may get a few more donations.

Links to nominate and donate in the pinned thread above.

We have a good healthy support now. It would be madness to try and squeeze us for too much cash, especially in the current climate.

Bet they do though.

Blackburn's start at £379. They were advertising the prices during the game the other week. £89 for under 18s. Sensible pricing.

I don’t think it’s going to be the 15% muted but I suspect the JSB tickets are hiked. Dump the tiered pricing as well hopefully

I can’t help thinking the JSB approach needs thinking through. There are empty seats in block 16 that are for kids who mostly don’t go. I understand not everyone wants to sit in the family zone though.

I think it's more that Doug King is looking at getting the clubs price position more in line with the market. Which is fair enough. We're not a L1 club anymore and the new prices should rightly reflect the club's position accordingly.
