Season Tickets

Before I get lynched here, please note I am buying a ST.

But.. I dont think the prices are particularly fairly priced to be honest, given its L1 football and a third of the home games will have gone before they come into use (Ipswich, Cov, Oxford, Sunderland, Doncaster, Bury) at £278 (where I sit).

If you have been to the first two home games, then purchase Oxford, Sunderland & Doncaster at an average of £20 a ticket, its an extra £100 on top of the season tickets so £378 which is quite steep.

I appreciate the club needs the money etc and there are other factors, but I would have hoped for better, and some kind of reward for people who have purchased the first few games with some discount off their ST's or a similar incentive. 

Just my opinion, not stopped me getting one or an excuse not to, just an observation.

Still cheaper than last season iirc.

Presumably it's been priced so as to help make a little profit, and rightly so, but to be as fair as possible.

Yes of course, the club needs the dosh and it isn't priced so people will be put off... I think i just expected less, so it was a surprise perhaps.

We all had ideas I suppose. I reckon we'll feel it was value if we carry on seeing the level of endeavour we've seen so far.

Anyway, just been down for mine. Approx 45 minute queue, which didn't reduce in size.

Forget the £20 matchday tickets. You either choose to buy those or not.

The season ticket covers 17 games at a lowest cost of £12.70 for an adult per game. I really fail to see what room there is to make that cheaper. Perhaps £10 a game?

How can you just 'forget' those match day tickets.. it's all part of the season expenditure to watch Bolton at home, so would normally be included and built into the seasonal cost.

Like I said im not complaining, just £378 for a season of L1 Football in WSL strikes as expensive & could have been better.

£12.70 is North Stand, not all areas either.

I know what you mean, but haven't FV capped prices at £20 so far since they've been in? Fairly reasonable, even without the senior players. 

I think they probably could have worked faster to get the ST out, but when there's been so much to sort it makes sense to have it starting from a specific date. Gives more time for people to get them, so I wouldn't really count that, but if they announced before International break it would have been good so people can buy them before the Oxford and Sunderland games.

Still, don't think the price is too bad considering what they've had to pay to get the club. The average cost seems more than fair.

I can see your point, if you are attending alone or paying for the Mrs.

The value this season is on the kids prices, under £3.50 per match for under 18's and under £2.50 per match for under 12's.

Keef did say he wanted us to be a family club again.

Yeah, its massive for the kids and that is exactly who we should be targetting... kids bring parents so its 2 season tickets quite easily.

Massively impressed with FV so far with everything so lets hope it is a sign of things to come!

I get the feeling we're in good hands now.

Onwards and upwards.

Because they aren't part of the ST price. Sure it means to watch every game this season will cost more if you choose to. But they are offering a season ticket for 17 games - at £12.70 a game. The fact matchday tickets are more expensive and they were unable to offer ST for all games - clearly is a factor - but the bottom line is that you can watch 17 games for £12.70 a game. If you didn't want to pay the £20 for one offs you don't have to. 

What I'm trying to say is that they are in my view separate entities. The value for those 17 games should be looked at, as is.

It'd be an administrative nightmare so a compete non starter but a discount for folk who have tipped up for all the games not covered by the ST would be nice

Not to be, so let's just get on with it

It still only works out at a touch over £16 per game.

It was £15 to watch Altrincham v Leamington last weekend.

£378?
So, £17.18 a game?
I'd be happy at that.
