These prices are pretty much par for the division (but not amongst cheapest). They do represent quite a hike for us though and it might put a few off.
Just wish the Forest game wasn't cat A. And Stoke City, a cat A game? One week before Xmas too, that's batshit tbf.
Anyhow, hopefully encourages a few more ST holders.
Not really. It'll probably sell a shit load of tickets still if not sell out. If it sells out is it a dumb move?Having the first game back after years away be the most expensive price folks have probably ever been asked to pay for a CCFC home game is a dumb move.

So you work out the optionsThey do though Nick, same logic with football fans.
I used to go to 10/15 matches a year before I eventually got a season ticket .
Many people are the same
So you work out the options
Match package
Season ticket etc
Don’t complain about the ticket prices if you’re also going to complain about the budget. This is around what most teams in the league charge, we need to keep up income wise.
Cat A games have been chosen on either:
A. How interested our fans will be - teams that have just been in the premier league, local rivals etc.
B. How likely the away team are to bring a good following - If Stoke, for example, would bring 6,000 if we charge £20 or £30 we may as well make an extra £60,00
That is exactly how they categorise games of course, but if Stoke bring more than 1500 one week before Xmas at £30 I'll eat my own shoe.

My £299 works out £13 a game.....absolute bargain
Maybe they cant afford the initial outlay!Again.. why not just get a match package or season ticket?
Why do people get bus passes rather than pay every day?
Very few clubs have released matchday pricing, but by comparison Barnsley very steep, with a £2 increase on the day too.
Mad how people expect to watch Championship football for league 2 prices, Fulham charge 45 quid to sit in their main stand, think yourself lucky its 30 quid wherever you sit for a handful of games.
Higher prices doesn't necessarily mean higher budget. Will likely decrease gates for those games from what they would be if £5/£10 cheaper.
See above, you'd then have to bank on the walk-up attendance being at least 20-33% greater. Given that many of them will be away fans who would willingly pay, you'd have to bank on 50% plus additional walk-up from City fans. Again, the club will have done its analyses.
Until we are back in lockdown come SeptemberI have a season ticket anyway .
So whatever .. low crowds aren't my problem
It's a problem with the English game that we've just come to accept it. £45 is ludicrous.

Fulham isn't all that expensive in most of the ground, members get £5 off making their ticket prices the same as ours in each category. They also have £20 tickets available for families.
Again, our prices are about right for the division, but sometimes its the clubs you least expect that charge the most. Clubs in Yorkshire known for fleecing fans, Bradford being an exception.
Bradford charged £25 a game in league 2 didn’t they?

They sold 18,000 season tickets I think it was in League 1, very impressive whatever the price
