At forty notes a go I can’t see those adult memberships going like hot cakes.
The sort of thing that should have been offer in May, not 5 months later.4 -
So unless we go on a good run in the next 13 league games for the rest of this calendar year, will they seriously put the prices back up again, or use a little bit of common sense and leave them as they are from today until the end of the season0

The price should drop if anything the closer to kick off. They should be open to bids / offers to get any sales.I only partly jest.On a serious note do I recall some vague explanation of this fee / the print at home fee something to do with paying the vendor for the system we use? Maybe I am conflating issues.0

The online booking fee is there because RD paid out for a new ticketing system that wasn't fit for purpose (as they had been advised) and was quickly replaced. I believe we are paying for it.valleynick66 said:The price should drop if anything the closer to kick off.

I can't see them going back up again this season. It's just by doing it this way perhaps Tommy boy doesn't look like he's made a total u turn on a really poor error of judgement in the summer.shirty5 said:So unless we go on a good run in the next 13 league games for the rest of this calendar year, will they seriously put the prices back up again, or use a little bit of common sense and leave them as they are from today until the end of the season1 -

The club's hands on this are slightly tied, because the season ticket prices (outside the lower CE and family section) were overpriced, and it's ST prices which set a baseline for matchday tickets.0

Don’t totally agree with that. There is plenty of headroom in the middle pricing band and even against the highest price at this point, not least because we’ve played five games at the higher match prices.killerandflash said:The club's hands on this are slightly tied, because the season ticket prices (outside the lower CE and family section) were overpriced, and it's ST prices which set a baseline for matchday tickets.
Bigger problem is that the pricing is now incoherent and confused against the 3-pack, as well as previous advance sales, while the membership offer adds a further layer of confusion - two different Meire tax cut-off times, for example.1 - Sponsored links:

There’s now a ‘J’ S too? Who the fcuk is that? Which department do they work in?

I think the damage has been done. Cheaper prices will help when, ok if, the team goes on a half decent run. Then people will start getting back into habits.0

I assume it’s Joachim Sandgaard who occasionally posts in the big Facebook group. Don’t believe he has a role at the club.Pavoren007 said:There’s now a ‘J’ S too? Who the fcuk is that? Which department do they work in?2 -

Is that genuinely a Sandgaard?Scoham said:
Pretty obvious the problem was ticket prices and shite football.0 -
It is indeed Joachim Sandgaard, another of Thomas’ sons.
Very concerning to see such angling to blame fans.3 -
they are quite a vocal family aren't they..0
-
If we were to lose today they could reduce it to £5 a head for Tuesday and still it wouldn’t make a difference.4
-
They need to see it as maintaining current levels of spectators not increasing it until the football improves. Too many cost of living issues to be enough on its own.2

Wow. Is that Twitter comment for real, or just someone on a wind up?0

Surely a modern ticketing system with electronic point of sale and electronic point of entry would generate high quality data that could very easily profile ticket sales for all matches. I'd think that after a couple of years in operation such a system would be able to generate accurate estimates of how many tickets will be bought, by what means, in what areas and at what times. Such data could be used by the stadium manager to properly plan their staffing for every match.Covered End said:I dislike the £3 charge as much as anyone, but if it's removed it may lead to loads more buying on the day prior to kick off and they won't have the staff to cope, leading to loads of queuing.
Of course the real problem the club has now, is that that prices have been up and down more often than a whore's drawers, so there'll be precious little consistent data to base models on. The one thing we can say with some accuracy is that the product is currently so poor that the elastic in any price elasticity has probably snapped. I'm pleased they dropped prices, if for no other reason than it was the right thing to do. I think the club would be completely wrong though if there was an expectation that this will lead to any great surge in attendance. Product and price need to be right, not one or the other.8 -
Too little & far too late IMO, Stig.2

Are they still got the ridiculous increase a day before a game, putting off walk ups?1

I haven't read this in detail but how and when will season ticket holders be rewarded?Lots of free and reduced tickets over the last two seasons but no reward for is mugs Who turn up every week5

Club put itself in an impossible position with its initial bonkers pricing strategy. Good that they have now reduced prices/bowed to the inevitable (delete as appropriate) but inevitably peed off season ticket holders in the process. Yet another example of the basket case we have become. PS good work by the fan advisers. They are on a hiding to nothing.2

Provided that no season ticket holders have been under cut, then the club can crack on with it.Sillybilly said:Club put itself in an impossible position with its initial bonkers pricing strategy.
