For me and the 2 lads its £60 a game
JR does realise were still in league 2 right?
Im sorry but £16 for a 7 year old is ludicrous
And people on here wonder why IPTV/piracy use is rife amongst us poor people!

We're not trying to attract the young/Floating fans are we.
I wonder how many people would of taken the early bird season ticket deal if they knew the prices would be this high on a matchday?

Myself, I respect that the club have crunched the numbers accordingly to ensure it’s viability. Though as I often take friends and relatives as guests I can see both sides of the season ticket / ‘day ticket’ arguments. As for ‘twenty is plenty’, would those paying twenty be happy to pay additional fees for food and drink to offset the reduction in ticket prices?

I would say that £45 for a 7-12 year old season ticket is definitely an attempt to attract the young fans. They only have to go 4 times and they are in profit.
When my stepson was that age nearly 20 years ago it was £60 for a Junior ST and the matchday price was about £8 back then. He couldn't go to every game because sometimes he was at his Dad's when we were at home, but it still made sense to get him an ST as we were in profit after 8 games out of 23.
Sometimes people don't look at the bigger picture - I can usually make about 15/16 games a season so some years I win and others I lose, but I know people who normally do about 19/20 home matches and don't buy a ST because "I can't make it to every game".

Personally, I think £20 is plenty for this level of football. When you factor in snap from the kiosk, pint before and or after. that's £30 from just me.
However... I fully appreciate if we dropped to £20 we wouldn't get the extra revenue in ticket sales. Our fan base wouldn't increase by 1/3rd (ish) to cover that £6 per loss per match. Couple with peoples ambition expectation that we should walk the league... that isn't free.
if the club was doing better off the field, commercially etc then maybe a price reduction, but at the moment the hospitality of it all is dead.
There will always be an excuse.

Good point
But I just feel we would of sold more early bird tickets if they announced the match day prices a the same time.
When you have it in writing, in the same article, £45 for a season or £16 pound a match day, it will make people think of the bigger picture.
