Almost as expensive as our tickets.

Sometimes the journey is greater than the destination.

What a rip off!

HAA HAHAHAHHAHAHAA! Plus they announced yesterday that they wouldn't be looking to extend/improve the stadium, and that funds would be going to improve the squad instead. So happy they are going to go the QPR route and hopefully plummit back down the leagues to their two bob rightful place.

I really don't like Bournemouth. Basically founded on jealousy.

Now we know what Paul Barber means by PLR :ohmy:

Five paragraphs before they kick in with the bad news :lolol:

A minimum of 550 quid for 19 games!

That's hard to justify given the huge amount of TV money they'll get. I read somewhere that the increase in TV revenue alone in the Prem this year (or maybe next) was enough to cover the cost of every season ticket for every team. I might be wrong.

My point is though, that ticket revenue is a rapidly decreasing part of the Premier League income, and Muff could have at very least frozen the prices, and there's a strong case that they should have reduced them.

Drop in the Ocean compared to what will happen here if we ever go up.

Not that it's likely for a while.

Depends on how they use the money I guess, if they use it to build s training ground/improve ground/playing squad then fair enough.

If they do a Blackpool that is where the issue is

Shame they haven't put them up more.

True - they do a lot of new infrastructure.

From Bournemouth's point of view the additional ticket revenue could be very short term so they might as well grab it while they can.

I did like this bit:

'Their reward is to compete in the nation’s elite division and welcome the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal to the south coast'

Oh well, that's five glam games then. They forgot to mention Stoke, Hull, Watford, Palace, West Brom, Sunderland, Leicester, Swansea, Norwich or Boro...

West Ham are trying to make all the other clubs look like worse by lowering the cost of tickets, they got given a stadium for free to do this, not only was it free we are paying for it.

Yep 40% rise on our prices and we will competing with the big boys. Well in the cost of tickets that is.

It highlights the significance of us getting promotion next season , the 5 year 1901 deals are up for renewal and this is the ideal opportunity to "ethnically cleanse" the best seats at The Amex to mop up on the corporate hospitality profit margins.

Do you honestly think that if we had been in Bournemouth's position we would have done anything differently as far as ticket pricing is concerned?

No, neither do l.
