And their issue is what. I'm sure many of us on here don't give a dam what other teams are charging for next season. The main thing is the season ticket prices for us next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) I don’t know about the % increase etc, but the prices themselves seem more than reasonable to me. Cheapest adult anywhere is a little bit more, but otherwise no more expensive than ours. Edited March 25, 2023 by italian dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) I keep hearing stories of how the Prem teams get so much money from TV rights they don't really need much from gate revenue, but that doesn't seem to apply in reality.

Hxj Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Actually getting a ticket to see Forest play for the last two seasons has been difficult.

That’s it in a nutshell….squeeze out the “young adult” band paying fans to create opportunity for full price payers.. I hope City never do this. As for their Chairman’s message: Those third and fourth paras really are Corporate bollax…and will piss off the fans. It’s basically, thanks for your support, but we are big time now, so eff you.

Whilst it would be wryly amusing to see Leeds, Leicester or even Everton go down, I have a sort of soft spot for Sean Dyche and the other two have probably just been a bit unfortunate. My ‘tip’ a few months ago was for Southampton, Bournemouth and Forest, and I am sticking with that. Incidentally, I had a brief look at Forest’s remaining fixtures a few days ago, and thought it was quite conceivable they could lose all their remaining games except one; a home match against someone, although I have forgotten who.

1960maaan Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) So just looking at the first price rise; "The cheapest adult season ticket will cost £465, compared with £385 for the current campaign." £80 is a bit of a jump, £4 a game. The scrapping of the 18-23 discount is a massive jump for anyone in that category . *One fan said the switch meant he would have to pay £640 to renew for next season - a sharp rise from £150 this season. Stuart Clarkson, who has supported the club for 45 years, said his student son's season ticket would be increasing from £150 to £480. They should surely introduce it slowly. I get that it is a bracket that would be earning and have money to pay, but a jump of *£490 a season is a pisstake even if they had been in the higher priced seats, . There's no way I would put up with that and it could mean losing a lot of fans , some for good. Just to compare to my experience. After our relegation 98/99 we had the pick of seats, we got centre Williams , couple of rows from the front . Great view that we got because no one wanted a season ticket after an awful season. Roll on a few years and the Club realised they could make more money if those seats were corporate. They said we could have our seats, but they would be about double what we had paid , something like £230 to £500+ . I didn't get another season ticket until the ground was redeveloped, I still went but chose my games. If that was someone just starting to watch the club they may never have come back, it was too late for me, but it can be easier to lose fans than win new ones.

spudski Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 It's only going to continue rising for all clubs. If we were to go up, I think ours would rise massively. You've only got to look at the prices of season tickets at all the Prem Clubs this season, to see how much it costs to watch your team. https://fanbanter.co.uk/every-premier-league-clubs-2022-23-season-ticket-prices-with-most-expensive-and-cheapest/ It's not so much the cost of a season ticket, but the additional costs it takes to attend...and the complete ball ache of it all. Unless you live within walking distance of the stadium, or on a bus route that goes to the ground, the costs, time and planning needed to attend are often what makes it prohibitive for some. And it's only going to get worse. With the net zero green City initiative of the Government and council's by 2030, restrictions on travel will become even worse. Travel, parking, public transport, times, restrictions, and the extra costs involved in that are imo the biggest turn off on buying a season ticket, not the price of the ticket itself. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me though all this extra money from the tv companies always seems to end up in the pockets of the players , if surely the amount of monies being quoted coming into football from these tv deals is the amount they say it is ( and I believe it is ) why can’t a percentage of it go some way to subsidising ticket sales or food & drink on the concourses . All we get are constant increases , a lot of them the clubs seem to overlook , travel , food & drink , parking ,time off work to attend games ( away games evening games etc. The money players earn in the premiership is nothing short of a disgrace tbh , £350,000+ for top earners how the hell to you spend or need that .

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 It is not the overall cost of the Forest STs, they are comparable with most teams price structure, but the shock at the abolition of a category which means people of that age group see a rise in cost in excess of 200%. If STs were a true commodity or service such a rise would be price gouging. However, there is nothing to stop football clubs charging what they like for a ST other than supporter protest by not buying the tickets and not showing up. It's not unlike the housing rental market where many have seen a rise in their rent of over 60% in the last year because their is no fair rent scheme in operation.

Yeh the general prices are par with many teams. It's that very early 20s age bracket they are hitting right now though. Full price at Forest, £165 in the SS for our under-22s. Maybe they're not that bothered. Look at our figures and you see 2,000 u19 tickets turns into just 600 u22 tickets. A 70% drop off if my maths is correct. If they're fanbase mirrors ours then you can see some logic behind protecting u19 prices and hitting those at - frankly - university age.

Although we’re both University towns and you’d have thought that, at the right price, there’s a market there? No idea really! They must have their rationale. I don’t know when they put their STs on sale this time last year. If it was about now maybe they didn’t expect to go up and priced them accordingly. Certainly, if the prices for next season represent a big % increase, as suggested, then they’ve been bloody cheap for the PL. Maybe they’re just looking to recoup some of that.

My entirely anecdotal and now depressingly out of date personal evidence is that for season tickets there isn't a market in local students that come to your club's city. Single match day tickets yes. Me and other football fan mates at Exeter in 2008 would go to St James Park at least once a term. But we'd have never bought a season ticket, whatever the price. Firstly, we were/are City, Villa, Man Utd, Chelsea etc fans and would have seen buying an Exeter season ticket as a bit wrong. Secondly, that would have been £100 less to spend on cider. Thirdly, we were busy most weekends anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And resigned to giving up watching football for a while. But the first two City home games I missed were 4-0 then 6-0 wins, in the season we got promoted to Div 1. So I quickly settled instead into a routine of travelling to City matches! And then, at the same time, Brighton decided to have one of their most successful times to date - Peter Ward scoring record numbers of goals, players like Mark Lawrenson, and successive promotions. So I ended up watching more football than ever!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with that is half the League don't have relegation clauses. Relegation for Everton, perhaps Leicester, West Ham actually do seem to have them, unsure about others but relegation for a host of clubs could be an FFP catastrophe at the very least. That's fully the fault of the clubs in q for no or few relegation clauses and running up major losses on a regular basis. The model has some serious issues.

ChippenhamRed Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Scrapping the 18-23 bracket is awful. Young people getting screwed over again by our society. All we hear about in the media is poor pensioners all the time, but these are student age people faced with little hope of buying a house, extortionate rent costs if they don’t, the cost of living crisis, lower salaries than people later in their careers and massive student debts if they’re coming out of university. They’re also the fans of the future who clubs should be encouraging. If they scrapped OAP discount there’d be outrage. But it would be no more outrageous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From anecdotal experience it is good fun...but lots arrive with their own teams already. Who studied in Bristol at a recent workplace of mine I knew Ipswich fan, Real Madrid fan, Aston Villa fan from one workplace alone. Probably many more besides...all still support their original team and bizarrely maybe it's a location of the city thing but one seems to have a preference for that other side in Bristol, maybe more do. There would be loads more I'm sure, if I think back. Fans with an interest in football but no firm team as such maybe they are easier to entice. It's a potential big untapped market on paper but I wonder about the reality. Edited March 26, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
