    Prices for Parkhead

    Under 16’s £24, anything older is an adult £34, under 13’s £15, are we missing a trick here, surely we should be charging them the same at Dens, also no student discount

    What prices are we charging Celtic, Rangers and United supporters to attend games at Dens this season.

    Cat A prices Adult £33, Seniors and Students £22, u18s £16 and u12s £8. Presumably that is the walk up price they charge their support and we are charged the same due to SPFL pricing (like for like) rules. By the same time we have to offer the away support the same ticketing prices (like for like, B Cox v B Shankly) that we charge our support. We follow those rules, whether Celtic do who knows. The way round those rules is to offer a multi game package, as we have done in the past, linking our normally poorly supported home old firm game to a 'lesser' fixture.

    So the bottom line is we are missing a trick but only if we charge more to our own support for the same barring the aforementioned multi game discount. You can also be sure a fair few of the great unwashed will be 'chancing their mitt' trying to buy and get in with concessions they are not entitled to.

    There shud be no pensioner ticket, that's been the case for about 20 years.

    I have an adult season tic and paid adult price at Ibrox, rest of away games concession.

    To charge someone that over 16 £34 is a joke

    ****agers subsidising pensioners is something I've long argued against on here.

    Its bad enough subsidising our own wealthy auld folk ( generally the most crabbit at Dens ) without subsidising old firm pensioners.

    Been saying this for years. Pensioners are not poor just because they're pensioners, on the contrary most are pretty well off now, and you don't stop being an adult just because you've turned 65. Discount should be removed from over 65 and youth discount applied to a higher age such as 25.

    I also believe brave ex-servicemen should be given the OAP type discount; let's hope that one day common sense prevails and society realises this.

    Adult season ticket at Dens but OAP discount when I go to away games.

    Totally agree. It's a complete nonsense. Get the discounts all onto the very young and youth market, the future of our support.
