[Jam The Man]

Guaranteed a rise this year I reckon, with two sets of prices depending on whatever division we are in

 

[clippedgull]

Could be a double whammy of a price rise for less games if we 'do it'

I hope the board won't be too brutal!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Happy with a moderate ST increase, just so long as the wise-guys who hedged their bets and finally bought a half-season ticket a month ago get royally SHAFTED

 

[amexer]

If we go up with less games and £100 m plus increase in revenue there can be no justification to increase season ticket prices.
I also think will be a mistake to increase even if we stay in championship. We are already dearer then so many clubs. As far as pay on day people are already paying £35/42. There has to be a limit and dont think people will pay more.
In addition if no promotion you cant blame players for moving on and it will be a big rebuilding job.

There's no reason to increase the season ticket prices. It will hardly be worth it against the millions they will receive from being in the Premier league.

...and added to that we would have FOUR fewer games in Division One.

 

[BBassic]

I'll be amazed if prices don't go up, whichever division we end up in next season.

 

[Eggmundo]

We don't get the money til the end of the season though. Who's going to pay for the massive rise in wages

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Bearing in mind what they said last year, I am not anticipating TOO big a rise.

 

[Silverhatch]

IF we do get promotion the bloody season tickets and all prices should go DOWN. Absolutely no justification for price rises. The money for the TV Chinese Rights alone for the Premier League is more than we generate through gate receipts.

This.

 

[Miximate]

Reckon they will stay the same which, pro-rata, is a price rise due to less games being played

Well for the past two or three seasons the club stated that existing season ticket holders, would not be charged more if we were promoted to the Premier League, so why should things change this time around?

To be picky, I think it's about the same. Last accounts say we generated £9.4m from tickets, and the China deal (assuming all of it's split evenly among all clubs) is about the same each year for the three years of the deal. It also doesn't kick in till the 2019/20 season.

They will go up if we get promoted. That is 99% nailed on

 

[studio150]

Look on the bright side with the £30 cap on away ticket prices all visiting fans could be paying less than all the Amex home fans

Disagree. Tony Bloom's been heftily subbing us for five plus years. Should the P word happen, first dibs goes to TB starting to recoup some of those subs.

To new season ticket holders yes. I'm hoping though, that as in previous seasons, the club won't penalise existing season ticket holders if we achieve our dream.

Granted. But the sentiment remains the same. TV and other commercial rights should be used (in comparatively very small part) to subsidise ticket prices in a downward fashion - NOT bloody upwards.
