What percentage was the price increase on season tickets this year? Some of the individual tickets look like theyve gone up more then 10 percent. 😳 Nothing like helping your fans out when theres a massive cost of living crisis going on..

The difference is shocking.

 

My Season Ticket in SK3 is £435 which makes it £22.90 a match ticket. On the assumption there is 10 Cat A and 9 Cat B games if i was to buy individual tickets it would cost me £838 and that's before booking fees / postage. So probably looking at £850. 

 

 So you can basically miss half of the games a season and it STILL works out cheaper to get a season ticket. 

 

Just mad really I feel sorry for the fans that have had to give their season tickets up as i am sure they will now also find it hard to justify buying an individual match day ticket. 

 

People are better to find 3 or 4 mates or family members and splitting the games on a season ticket! 

 

 

 

I would say there will be 7 Cat A fixtures “the big six” & Forest. The rest should all be Cat B.

I have a Senior concession so my son and I split the difference and pay the same, I hate the thought that I'm getting in cheaper than him.

Think what good we do on season tickets is cancelled out by this. I had no idea if I bought a standard ticket for a game it was £42 where I go (in a relatively cheap area, for the smaller games). That's about double what I pay. It's ridiculous money.

Think we usually have more than that don't we? Haven't teams like WHU & Villa been classed as a CAT A fixture in previous seasons? 8 or 9 Cat A fixtures sounds about right.

I do tonnes of our games, probably 90% home and away but that's definitely because of a season ticket. I actually look at last season, the second half of it in particular, I don't think I can point to a single home game in the league where I'd have paid £42 to go to it.

Not sure you can greed when the club lost 120m over the last 2 seasons.

 

The main issue is the lack of football governing bodies will to make football sustainable by tackling agent's fees and player wages. 

That agent fees and player wages increase has been directly led by the football clubs rather than an actual decision by the governing bodies. In fact FFP in UEFA comps is one of the few examples of an association actually getting involved a bit with wages to turnover ratios etc

But they could have done it years ago, and with a level playing field.

 

All the new FFP doesn't is ensure the status quo.

 

It'd not about sustainable, its about keep the elite safe.

 

It will encourage clubs to increase prices to maximise revenue.

 

No one need to be earning 300k a week, whilst fans pay £50 a ticket.

Twitter has been interesting today. 

 

King Power FC out in force backing the pricing 😂

There’s been a lot of moaners out as well if one of the group chats I’m in is anything to go by! Thank goodness I’m off twitter. It’s absolute poison at times.

The Under 22 prices and the age groups below are staggering. £48 for a 19 year old to watch a Cat B game in a certain part of the ground.

 

And they wonder why youngsters are turning away from the game.

What's the difference between this season and last season?

Up by about 10% across the board I think.

 

So the gap between season ticket and match day ticket has increased.

Some of the comments are just very typical of people at the minute. The everything else is going up so not surprised attitude and if you don't like it don't go.

 

Imagine the majority on their don't have a mortgage, family to feed or bills to pay though. 

 

The worst comment is if we don't put the prices up we can't compete and buy players! Just ridiculous. 

 

It will result in the club getting approx £1.3 to £1.5 mil additional ticketing money. At the same time the TV money for next season is at least £10 mil more. 
 

I feel for people who may have young families; their kids getting interested in football etc

How much did we pay in agent fees last year?! They are the first parasites in the game that need regulating!

Well there’s lots of areas in the accounts we can pick on that regard. A number of shitty signings and poor contractural decisions

Oh absolutely there are but agents for me could be regulated, play miss out of moves becasue agents are happy about the money they make? How can that be right ? 

 

Let's hope that these football regulators will hopefully change. I'm not holding out much hope though.

1st one should be an agent works for the player therefore gets paid by the player, be the a lump sum or a percentage of the monthly wage.

 

But it's a joke clubs are paying agents as well.

This is absolutely criminal. Do they really think they would fill a stadium when it’s increasing in size and watching the dross we were served last season?

To go to elite level AFL football at the MCG (Melbourne cricket ground)...

Who sets the ticket prices?
The home club sets the prices for all 2021 Toyota AFL Premiership Season matches.
The Melbourne venues general entry price will remain the same with $27 (approx 15 pounds)for adults, $18 for concession and juniors remain at $5. (3 Pounds)
