Which is still in the stadium, with a perfect view like the entire stadium has.

It would be an issue if he was charging kids £200 for the entire stadium. He's not. Up to 20% of seats in the stadium are £50/£100 for kids.

FFS, this last time I say this to you.

People shouldn't have to move and you saying "look how cheap it is" has fuck all to do with that

As I said last night you'd defend anything they did
Click to expand...

No, they shouldn't but they shouldn't be giving tickets away for free in extremely busy areas of the ground.

I agree with you that they should have charged kids no more than £125 in the corner, but if they did that, they'd never be able to offer the deal behind the goal that we have.

I disagree with it, but I don't think it's fair to miss key points which plenty on here, CWR and twitter are.

Not really sure it's an appropriate comparison as for the first 3 ticket sales will represent a far lower % of turnover than it does for us. Celtic and Rangers it's a high % though not sure what the prices are or indeed how price sensitive their average ST holder is.

If they want the North Stand to build, sticking folks in the corner is a cock up. Make it a Family Stand, open blocks behind the goal instead to start with. And provide poker style visors for the b*stard sun!

Doug has a summer to show his intentions - this could go sour very quickly if Gyokeres and Hamer are sold and the money isn’t reinvested.

1m each on replacements isn’t going to cut it. Said it the other day - I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt, but we need to be cautious with him

Said this the other day, that's where his big test is on if they are sold what happens then.

He did say earlier "watch what happens in the summer" so he seems confident.

It's much better to judge on that rather than how he claps a goal.

i meant that someone will have their matchday experience significantly reduced because of a poor decision by someone who lacks experience in this field.

I think it's morally wrong that someone has to move or not come

I have to move, it's really not a big deal?

Is it really going to ruin games so much people won't go?

That's the point Doug has made clear though.

He hasn't priced anyone out of the ground but he's priced people (kids) out of premium areas.

Which I’m sorry , is hard on those parents , Grandparents who took their youngsters regularly but sadly people snapped up those next to nothing tickets and they were not being used, whereas supporters like me and the wife doing 10 games a season couldn’t get a ticket together in blocks 14-19…..but buying ( at top dollar prices ) as we still did we almost always managed to find empty seats in those areas not being used
I can see why it’s been done , there are always going to be winners and losers

I meant more the JSB issue.

I can see the club doing a U turn on the North Stand stuff by extending the Family Zone out.

Plus, lots of people say they won't be going but will be there (I'm not saying Hill's dad either as he explained it's a slightly different situation)

As has been said, they should of charged people like me more to help mitigate any potential price increases in concessions tickets and they should of incrementally increased the Overs concession age so elderly people with not much money aren't suddenly hit by 100's in price increases

Yeah, As I have said i know some people with older kids who's kids don't want to move to a family stand that they see as been aimed at younger kids but can't afford the new prices in the seats they have now.

My issue isn’t price. It will cost be a fair bit more. But they’ve closed the block I’m in to season tickets. We are there specifically because it’s where my dad chose. He has anxiety and mobility issues and now he’s said he won’t be going next season.

Take a look at block 1, 2 & 3. Smaller stands, concourse generally much less crowded. You do have to walk down the concourse from the north stand but it's a relatively easy walk with no real crowding. Few tickets showing there at the moment but suspect more will open up once seats are released from people moving or not renewing.

It's not like the seats are painted primary colours....

Guess it depends how it's approached with the kids, making the best of it or making the decision for them.

It isn't really "aimed" as it's not like you have to do anything "kiddy". If anything, it's aimed at anybody who has a kid under 18 now the pricing has changed.

Fair enough if you tried to take them to the JSB stuff before where they do colouring in and stuff.
