    renewed on Friday - haven't renewed my boys - they're 19 and 22 now and both at work - reckon its time to see how much they really want to go - might be the kindest thing i do if they get out of the habit

    Moaned a bit and then renewed. Don't want some other bugger taking our seats when we are in the Prem in a couple of years! 

  • Renewed- next season has to be better.

    Renewed both ours - £260 for 23 matches ain't bad! And I am hopeful as usual the season will be a good one ....................................................................................
  • I know I will renew I always do, but as my zone 2 price actually reduces after early bird there was no incentive to rush into the purchase.
    In fact I will probably hold back until I'm about to lose my seat.

    The zone 1 pricing is comical to be honest

    £150-200 more than the person the other side of the aisle 

    I know people love their seat and all that but it’s a joke to have that differential

    Site's down saying I have nothing to renew and have missed the deadline because of it

    Holding out on renewing until I see what the plans are for next season. I can't sit and watch the shit served up last season again. I'll spend my time on something else

    Anyone know how many sold so far ?
    Radio silence on that from the club. Last summer the club were doing updates on how many sold every 500. 
    Be patient, I’ve heard we’ve reached 487, so probably just under a week until we reach the first update 👍🏻

    Didn't do it today - how long until I might lose my seat?

    There's zero chance of someone new coming in and paying the increased £625 in Zone 1, especially in the Curbs stand, surrounded by the reduced price Zone 2 seats. Madness pricing.

    The club possibly aren't too bothered, as they can sell the highest price seats on a one off match day basis.

    I too was going to re-new this evening and had to send my son's student ID tot he club during the day today.  Went on just after 6 to renew the sytem is down and remains down.  I don't think it said renew by 5pm on 09/05 but perhaps I missed that.  Annoyed a bit really.

    I mean this is how you market season tickets (not that they’ll sell many either bless ‘em)

    If that logic made sense it would apply to all seats - not too bothered about season tickets because they can get more for that particular seat on a matchday. In practice the benefit of the season ticket is that it ties people in - you are still paying for Morecambe and Fleetwood in midweek in February when no bugger is buying match tickets at any price.

    The real point of the £625 is to charge everyone in those blocks that price next spring. Good luck with that if we are facing another season in L1.

    My thoughts exactly, and there will be the same "we're freezing prices" bullsh*t. I will certainly be raising this the next time there's a Q&A session

    This was my general moan about the earlybird approach. It’s just a largely unnoticeable way of pricing in an increase for 12 months time as a base position

    Should hopefully hear something today from the club now they are off sale until tomorrow. 

    No reason why not to tell

    When I mentioned our prices in the feedback form, I got a reply telling me that we are the cheapest of the top 14 London clubs.

    Of which I guess we are 12th in the London League Table ahead of Orient & Wimbledon?

    I suspect lower north is pretty much the cheapest, but elsewhere we are dearer than Brentford in a lot of instances.

    Having one section of very good value seating (CE lower) is being used to mask the expensive prices elsewhere

    Brentford can afford to price at lower rates for most of its seats, due the revenue from TV payments and higher revenue from sponsorship and advertising.
  • Apropos of nothing, I was pleased to see at the last home game that new seat number stickers had been affixed to the seats in the upper west.
    Of course I know my own seat, but the amount of times last season when late arrival day trippers would be standing looking around blankly for their seat because not a single one had a whole readable number left on it.

    Love that this is always mentioned, jus like us needing to cover expenses of the lower league. I very much look forward to season tickets being cheap if we ever reach the Premier league again... although I won't bet on it.

    All complaints to the Director of Operations.
    Numbers sticky for the use of, fall under his remit. ;)
