February 8, 20188 yr Is there an argument to say those that who only go when it’s £20/£25 are more likely to spend a skin full on beer? And therefore you’d actually make more from total sales at the lower price id need to know the terms of the catering deal last i heard it was contracted out so unlikely to be any use to bwfc
February 8, 20188 yr I think so. £35 is too much end of though. Instead of ballooning on twitter though just don't go if you don't want to pay it though. I have a ceiling on what I think championship games are worth and I wouldn't pay that It is too much for football however folk need to remember it’s what it costs. Nobody balloons at concerts. It’s £18 for Chester these days and they are on the brink of going under. Players wanting big money costs money
February 8, 20188 yr I appreciate that £35 is too much for a championship game, but for them it’s their biggest away day of the season (local, gentry and getting closer to the play offs). I wouldn’t be missing the same for bolton for the sake of £10, assuming most would think £25 is reasonable. Most of them will be on the beers all day and wouldn’t notice if they’ve spent either £80 or £90 - they should just pretend they’ve spent £25 on the game and a tenner more on booze, or buy 2 less drinks.

I put similar on twitter mate. £100 on ale, £80 on Bing, £40 on taxis and train then boot off because your paying £6 extra for your match ticket when it's your only day out of the season
February 8, 20188 yr We can’t moan when Leeds away go on sale course we can then we can either pay it or not
February 8, 20188 yr course we can then we can either pay it or not it’s all good people say fuck em etc But ultimately it’s us the football fans who get the rough end I know we need the cash etc but this may backfire on ken one day and possibly pne may bring a small number I know the sky money subsidies premiership clubs charging £30 for away fans but £35 for bolton v Preston
February 8, 20188 yr We can’t moan when Leeds away go on sale To be fair we only had a little moan last time. I personally just don’t go leeds now

February 8, 20188 yr Doesn’t effect me however plenty out there being priced out of football means i can stretch out
February 8, 20188 yr Leeds are robbing bastards, simple as that. I'm still going to go though because I like the booze up and stopping off at a few stations on the way back for good guzzle Edited February 8, 20188 yr by Biggish Dave

If I'm honest I'd rather buy 5 more drinks and not go if we think about it like that????
February 8, 20188 yr So long as you don't moan at the club when they say they can't afford to pay for good players, or retain our better ones.Aye I'm always moaning about that.
February 8, 20188 yr They've already got a 37 pager on their forum about the prices but it seems something is being done. Following representations by Preston North End to Bolton Wanderers, a change is to be made to the ticketing arrangements for the Gentry Day clash on Saturday 3rd March. After conversations at the highest levels, tickets, that went on sale on Thursday morning, will be withdrawn from sale with immediate effect.Tickets will now be sold for the lower tier first, £5 cheaper than the upper tier, at £30 for an adult.Those who have already purchased for the upper tier can come to Deepdale, exchange their tickets and then receive a refund in the difference in pricing.Bolton have also agreed that if and when the lower tier, of approximately 2,500 tickets, sells out, they will then talk to the club regarding the pricing arrangements for the upper tier.The club hope, that this reduction, along with the subsidised £5 travel opportunity via buses from Deepdale and Leyland, give supporters some savings to allow as many as possible to attend what is always a fantastic day to remember all those that have passed away connected with the club in the last 12 months.Tickets for the lower tier are priced as follows:Adults £30Seniors (aged 65 and over) £24U23s £24U18s £12U12s £10The lower tier tickets are expected to arrive at Deepdale over the weekend and will therefore go on sale from Monday morning at 9am, at which time those with upper tier tickets can exchange their ticket in person at the ticket office at Deepdale and receive any refund they are entitled to, they must bring their upper tier ticket(s) back with them.
February 8, 20188 yr proper twat is kenHa you were just lauding him up for charging £35 further up ????
February 8, 20188 yr like i say, hes a twat still say he should charge whatever he can get away with maybe hes decided he cant get away with 35
February 8, 20188 yr like i say, hes a twat still say he should charge whatever he can get away with maybe hes decided he cant get away with 35 Aye. I wonder if other clubs will boot off now. It obviously works?
February 8, 20188 yr They wouldn’t sell out at £25 I live in Chorley and rarely bump into a preston fan. shite support. Edited February 8, 20188 yr by Mounts Kipper
