Last time I looked about 2 days ago, there were only 2 seats taken in the Mahou section

I wonder what their plan is with that. Either they're looking to majorly adjust price or close the Mahou Bar, give a refund to those two which purchased tickets and recommended they relocate into the Balcony Bar.

I cant understand why the Mahou Lounge has been such a cock up

Is it price? Is the food shit? Is the experience shit?

Has to be something because its never been successful since it was made

The value isn't there across a full season really.

£3500 inc VAT per person is around £150 per game.

Which isn't necessarily not too bad on a Saturday for a one off or a couple of occasions across a season but paying that every single home game isn't worth it.

Also it's the night matches where you lose a lot of the value as inevitably people will be getting there later due to work and will be driving so can't take advantage of the free drinks.

The price needs dropping by probably at least £700-£800 - probably more like a grand.

What's the price of a box these days? Would imagine if you have a group that a box may offer similar or better value.

New prices are £27.5k. Around £2.3k per person.

Package is a bit subpar.

Main meal, dessert and welcome drinks and two (used to be three) parking spots.

Personally I think the boxes need gutting and redesigning and there should be more drinks on offer at request in order to justify the current price but that's not going to happen.

Reason they don't want more free drinks...to stop the idiots going in there

My mate went in for the Boro game and said it was actually really good value for money as all drinks are thrown in - Obviously to make the most of it you are gonna have to drink a lot to justify the price

It is definitely one of those things you do as a one off as opposed to committing for a season for though and is pretty pointless for a midweek game, as who is going to drink 200 quids worth of ale on a work night

I had a season ticket for two years when it was a private box , they took it away without offering it as a box for any price., to convert it to the Mahou lounge , it hasn’t worked and they lost revenue on it , think the corporate side of things has been the only sub par mark on things, a lot of empty boxes for first seasons of Doug’s tenure but hopefully that’s turning round too with steady top end of the table finishes

The corporate side of things in my view is actually worse under the current regime than it was under Boddy and SISU.

The packages are ill thought out and the pricing relative to the GDP of Coventry remains well off the mark.
