Only £35

[kingcole]

Are you joking? Already Brighton one of championships highest gate prices, 50% il be pay £74 for my st seat..

Must be if north or south to be so cheap

I didn't think any seats cost £49 at the mo - not even the central ones behind gus? Even 1901 isnt this much is it?

I was originally going to write along the lines of, FFS it's a football match, not a night at the Opera. Then I had a look at the price of a night at the Opera. La boheme Royal Opera House.

I know we need the youngsters now as future adult fans, but I have been thinking for a while that the 70% reduction for under 10s is generous. Am I being unfair?

As someone who brings an u10 to games even I think the discount the kids get is low. Half price is a fair rate for juniors.

I was shocked when I saw how cheap my lad's ticket was for next round. I wouldn't have hesitated buying the tickets if his has been £14 instead of £7.
The £2 "fee" still f*cks me off though. Internet sales and smart card entry, there shouldn't be a fee at all! The fee doesn't seem to fit with the club ethos which gives us interest fee payments on the ST, yet screws the "customers" over for a couple of quid unjustifiably.

At the Opera the tickets start from as little as £8 with well over half being under £50-£60. if you are quick off the mark it can be a very cheap evening out indeed. I have a ticket to see Placido Domingo later on this year it cost me £15.

But isn't opera subsidised by the taxpayer through grants?

Not entirely, but I'm sure some Arts Council money finds its to the ROH. The cheaper seats tend to be subsidised by the eye-wateringly expensive ones. I rarely pay more than £40, and normally get the £12-15 tickets if I can. I really like it as a night out and something that is always better experienced live than on tv/radio.

The club could and should look at the people abusing the u10discounts. when i was a season ticket holder in the family stand there were 2 groups right near me every week consisting of adults only. If you buy a cheaper u10 ticket you can also buy 2 cheap adult tickets and not bother with the kids. You can also upgrade the u10 ticket if you want, or just scan in with kids ticket no one seems to mind. I experimented a few times, using my sons card and no one said anything.

I think the north stand seats need increasing in price! Everyone that sits there says they're the best seats and best stand etc. lets double the north stand price as a starter

I stand as I'm in the back row of the north stand so don't use My seat. If prices double do you think I could rent My seat out to cover some of the cost ?

Just weighed in with another £35, for the club, most happy with that.

When you use a childs ticket through the scanner at the turnstile, a different coloured light flashes on the turnstile, this is done to stop adults using a kids ticket without upgrading

Compared to WSL ( no concessions ) it is good value. I still feel that the club have to very careful in their pricing policy. There is a narrow dividing line between value for money and over priced. Those of us paying £600 for our ST,the best part of £40 for Cup games and over £30 for high profile friendlies in WSL are already right at the upper limit of value for money. Yes, thats our issue for choosing seats there but every fan has his financial tipping point. Most STH want to sit in their normal seats for Cup games and wherever that is, they hope for value for money.
I didn't do Newcastle. Moderate opposition ( already seen them last season )lunchtime, on TV, overpriced ( £39 ) That game was my tipping point. I am doing Swansea/Arsenal. More interesting proposition. Not on TV. 3pm k.o. Still a lot of money but comes into category of ' must see '

If your ST is £600, that works out Pro Rata at £26.09 per match, including local travel and or P&R parking.

If you add in 2 cup games at £39 each, your pro rata match ticket price goes up to £27.12.
