All the money the club pissed away over the years and still people think spending a weeks wage on a season ticket is a fair price.
The club wouldn't even give discount to season ticket holders for new kit at start of season.
Loyalty my arse, 150 to 200 for Adult and kids 50 quid and ill be back. Untill then I will buy merchandise in the sale and will be a 5 or 6 game pay as you go fan.

Affordable but at what cost ? We are currently close to ffp limits reducing ST is not a garauntee of big enough crowds to surpass income we have now so in reality it could cost us dearly! Think of what a successful season could do next season with our present prices and increased crowds? Could lose £100s k a game if reduced ST prices

Wez people think slashing ST prices getting more fans in is going to help? But in reality it could cost us financially a lot of money because it is big part of our income I suspect , we need more money in not the same or less.

The opposite side of the argument though is that people like me who have to fork out for four (in my case possibly five) season tickets will be waiting for the price to be announced before deciding to renew. If it is a fair and affordable price, the club will get many hundreds of pounds off me (tickets, merchandise, programmes etc). If I think the price is too high and will affect my ability to afford household bills etc., then the club will not get a penny from me. Not out of choice, more necessity. I hope to be purchasing four season tickets depending on cost, if I can't that is probably equivalent to two or three new season ticket sales the club needs to find to make up for what they won't be getting from me. If you replicate this scenario many times over, it makes for an interesting debate.

I may be wrong but I don't think refreshments will have any bearing on the club's finances. As far as Warnock is concerned, if he is not backed he has already said what will happen so that is up to Tan to decide. Not sure if anyone has said season tickets should be reduced by 33%, have'nt read all the comments but I don't think I've heard that suggested. I was under the impression that Tan was the person who has said he intends converting the debt to equity, so perhaps it is him who is mental rather than us posters.

exactly the same can be said if you take your family and pay for them to the cinema, or to a restaurant , on hols. or wezs chippy. i bought 4 for many years and tbh could always have found something else to spend 1200 quid on. but 25 quid a week for 23 days out with the kids doing something that was a shared interest that we all enjoyed. a bargain .
and 300 quid is amongst the lowest in our division.

Your right. Its the belief that Warnock has brought to the club that should reverse the year on year decline in season ticket sales. An adult starting price around £ 15 per game has to be a bargain. They need to market it a whole lot better though. Although nowadays large attendances are pretty much season ticket based they need to also target match day sales. Simplify the pricing structure and scrap these match day price rises, which I'm convinced act as a real deterrent to attending.

To suggest £150 a season ticket to ridiculous and would be about six or seven quid a match!
Unfortunately it's the way of the world and football is no different that if you can't afford something, you don't buy it. Or if you think it's too expensive don't go.
It's tough if you want to take four or five kids/grandkids with you as that's a great family day out.
