jules_darby Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 While it's not for me LOV is a decent option The reason I won't do it is the wankers who do Cunts to a man Fur coat and no knickers Barely been on recently so missed this LOV is front of ESU or you pay a couple of hundred more for the balcony seats My issue this year is that it's gone up £100 plus they've removed 2 cup games that you got. At £60-£70 per game (depending on the category) in real terms it's approx 22-24% increase As for LOV itself, it's alright but nowt special. It's kept me going to games with my Dad, and he really appreciates the warm lounge before at HT and after while traffic goes down. One of the best bits of being a "corporate" is getting away tkts easily; that's been a godsend third season gone with some of the small capacity ends (only 1 per ST but you get priority) I'll probably renew but the level of increase is out of order IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leef78 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can you get LOV on Direct Debit or do you have to pony up the lot upfront? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radcliffe white Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can do direct debt I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Faustus Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 My issue with the LoV pricing is that 12 yr old kids are charged at the same rate as adults. Aye, a bit cheeky that Fair fucks to those who are prepared to pay it, and as Jules says I imagine they are some things that are priceless that the LOV accomodates... Personally, i couldnt imagine not have flip-flopped drunkard singing over my shoulder in mid winter But each to their own... I never really went to the match with my dad- but did with my mates; that for me will never change, and despite having freebies for a couple of seasons, am still renewing where the majority of my mates are... as long as i can afford to do so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 It's OK, BWFC tweeted me to say U-12's pay just £595. I've asked them if 12 is less than 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyther_Matt Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 My issue with the LoV pricing is that 12 yr old kids are charged at the same rate as adults.In fairness I imagine they'd be eating the same meal as an adult so no cost difference on that front, although the actual season ticket aspect of it should naturally be cheaper in line with an ordinary season ticket.

frank_spencer Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I suppose it keeps that very thin veneer of exclusivity in place. Rather than becoming a whacky warehouse with sprogs running round all over the shop doing knee slides on the dance floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Exactly it keeps the riff raff out. My issue is that there's no discount for kids aged 12+. It's £595 for under-12's, which is plenty high enough to keep riff raff out IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a RIP off is the old Mascot charges. there seems to be no way of getting a kid to be a mascot without paying £300 + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season Tickets are priced at U-12, U-18, U-23 and full price. LoV is priced at U-12 and adult, where are the appropriate bandings? LoV is £959, I think, which is £405 higher than my ST but it's an £884 hike for a 12 yr old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she's 12, so can't get an U-12 ticket. Should be an U-18 price for LoV, just like normal ST. My upgrade is actually £554, not £405. £405 is my ST price, so LoV is an extra £24 a game, which I could live with, but surely you're not suggesting a 12-17 yr old pays £38.50 to upgrade? If you are, then you're a bigger fucking moonman than I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 12 yr old daughter's U-18 season ticket is £75. To go in LoV is £959 for her 959 -75 = 884 884 / 23 = 38.43 38.43 > 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nieces ticket is £600 ish when she is 12 it will be £959 which isn't the same as you are quoting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
