In todays Argus interview with Barber he confirms that the price of season tickets will go up next season. How much more are you prepare to pay ?

15 million / 25,000 = 600 pounds.

Don't mind - so long as we start scoring some goals!

5-10% for me, we're in this together and all need to shoulder the burden. A price rise of 5% in reality will be less than a pound extra a week.

6%. I don't think they dare ask for more than that.

Difficult one. It is already expensive to watch the Albion - and football in general in this country.
What happens on the pitch isn't a massive deciding factor for me. I go because I want to see the Albion.
That said, I am feeling more and more apathetic towards football in general. I don't blame the Albion for the high prices etc - its a problem with football. But being able to afford an increase and being able to justify it are not necessarily the same thing.
Probably will renew though. Just losing a bit of love for football more each season. Again, not the Albion's fault. Not blaming Barber et al. Just modern football in general.

Anything over £50 is going to cause angst. It will get to a point where some people will not renew, start to pay per match and go less to keep costs down. There seems to be plenty of spare seats already.

As a caveat; I likely won't be renewing next season regardless due to a necessary belt tightening exercise (first child and house move being the most prominent reasons among several).
That being said, I honestly don't know what I'd pay in terms of an increase, somewhere around the 5% mark probably wouldn't make me shy away but higher would make me think.
Now, this has got nothing to do with the football on display, the Albion will always be the Albion regardless of the players, its more about my growing apathy towards football as a whole.
Clubs everywhere are being run unsustainably (many worse than BHA as we all know) and are ratcheting up the costs for fans to watch them in action. This then makes the supporters expect more from the 'experience' that they're now paying more for, so, to keep people happy, the prices get ratcheted up again. It's a self-sustaining circle and beyond a club hitting the wall there really doesn't seem to be an end in sight to it.
It could just be the sheen of youth falling away from my eyes but I'm sure that 'back in the day' not every football conversation would have to include finances as a constant theme.
*sigh* Flame away.

Hopefully in line with my pay "rise".
i.e. 1%.

Pretty similar to how I feel at the moment.
I think to be fair to the club they want to keep rises to a minimum, and increase it from other avenues rather than ticketing. Expect to hear about the prices sooner rather than later!
