Announced today…£40 for Leicester, Leeds and Millwall games.
Good move, £13.33 a game when they’re coming thick and fast, or should that be fast, slow and thick ;)
Good to see the club trying to get bums on seats at the business end of the season. So long as no individual ticket is sold for less than a ST holder has paid per game. I paid £315 for WS4 block 26 games…£12.12. What was the cheapest ST this season?
21 March 2014 at 2:28 am #128843I paid £280 for 26 games which works out at less than £11 a game which is probably cheaper than some teams in the northern premier league .
A good offer but our crowds. Have held up well and are not much different to our premier league days if you just count the home speccies.21 March 2014 at 11:39 am #128849Announced today…£40 for Leicester, Leeds and Millwall games.Good move, £13.33 a game when they’re coming thick and fast, or should that be fast, slow and thick ;)

Why not? You bought a season ticket that gave you your guarenteed seat at a price that you were presumably happy with, along with preferential treatment when it comes to ticket sales for cup and away games, etc. It doesn’t give you the right to dictate how the club should sell tickets for other seats.

Indeed, the decision to purchase a season ticket, on pricing grounds, is taken in comparison with individual ticket prices as announced at the time.
The problem comes if say 6 months down the line, the club sells individual tickets for less than ST holders paid. This offer has it spot on, a good deal for non ST’s but still a bit more expensive than ST’s paid. 3 home games in a week is a lot to pay out when the extras add up.
As you say, there are other advantages to season tickets to take into account. Not forgetting the 10% discount at Sharpys :lol:
I wouldn’t dream of dictating how the club sells tickets…but all ST holders have a choice to renew or not. I will be there next season of course, but ST renewals are likely to drop if we’re still in the Championship.

You’re contradicting yourself! You say you wouldn’t dream of dictating but then say they shouldn’t sell individual tickets less than a season ticket price. Once you choose to buy a seaosn ticket, you exclude yourself from any deals the club may choose to offer down the line. You know they might do that, so you could choose to not buy a season ticket and wait for any such offers, or buy it with all the benefits (how could I have forgotten about Sharpy’s?!) that come with it.
As Tobin Bell would say: “The choice is yours!”
22 March 2014 at 12:03 pm #128871But as Sharpys closed in February have the club failed to honour this potential ‘perk’ for the rest of the season!
