Thread: Season Ticket Price Hike.

I fail to understand the logic, it's a PR disaster, they will certainly lose some young fans and for what ? I imagine the extra revenue generated will be negligible in the grand scheme of things, less than £1 million on a turnover of well over £120 million.

    One aspect as well is that they've priced them up per game as well, and the increased number of games in the Championship means some tickets are cheaper on a per game basis and the increase not so onerous on others. Does this mean they've given up on survival and as far as Mr Pace and his colleagues are concerned we're down, no way are Vinni and the players going to get us out of this. Not really a good message to send to the dressing room is it.
    We have had football on the cheap for ten years now. I'm renewing whatever happens. UTC#

    You're not getting it as cheap as Mr Pace and the Board members are.

    I support the on-the-field Burnley players mon ami, not the Fat Cats in the boxes.

    We were due a price hike but why pick on kids and us oldies?

For clarity if you are under 12, under 18 or under 22 on the 1st August this will be your age category for the entire season. Equally if you are under 65 on the 1st August you will be unable to qualify for the over 65 category.
    Thanks for your reply PP. I had a feeling that was the case

    Perhaps they want to eliminate concessions mon ami, tidy it all up, it will make it look better to prospective buyers when they come to selling the club.

    They just know that us oldies are involved in the triple lock pension debate and will be able to afford more and t hat we can also pay more for the grandchildren ---give them the benefit of ou rwealth now rather than them having to wait until we snuff it.

    I always thought the kids for a quid scheme was great. They get in for a quid then spend a fortune on soft drinks and snacks, empty seats are filled and future fans are nurtured, it's win win.
