Before I go on, I must just say that the Latics season tickets are fantastic value and the club deserve a massive pat on the back for their ST prices, particularly for families.
But….a mate of mine with two U11 kids, who has been thinking of going to Latics for a while, enquired today about getting three tickets for the Wolves match. It would have been his first trip to DW – he’s a football “fan” in that he follows one of big 4 but priced out of their ground.
He was quoted £50 in total plus booking fee. £20 for him, £15 each for kids. He decided not to bother. I don’t blame him.

……how much do you think he should pay to see Premiership Football?
Seriously…..

I’m sorry but I just don’t get it.
….are you saying that the ‘pick and choosers’ should pay less than those who have purchased Season Tickets?
Do you honestly believe this to be fair (to the ST holders) and a proper price (it’s a premier league fixture for heavens sake)
Its thirteen and a half quid on the door at SeaLife in Blackpool – out in under an hour – and you’re not even allowed to shout at the fish.
In my opinion, the prices reflect good value when looked at nationally.

Yes but were as at SeaLife your only going to go if you actually like fish and all that lark and therefore are pretty much certain you’ll get a good time for your money.
But why pay more money to watch our players pass the ball sideways for 90 minutes and lose?I agree this isn’t fair for season ticket holders (as I am one) work it out though……
£10 for category B games and £20 for A games. Say 10 home games are considered B games and 9 A. That is £280, around the season ticket price now anyway aint it??
But why pay more money to watch our players pass the ball sideways for 90 minutes and lose?
Its called being a fan, how do you know what will happen?

Oh no, I’m not a real fan now because I want more fans in the ground and offered a realistic solution on here for once.
I didnt go to Goole either, I must be a JCL!I didn’t say you weren’t a real fan. I questioned how you would know what is going to happen.
No son i’m not a jcl.

Did you not think of takign your kids to the Sunderland game at £7.50 a go? Or is it easier to pick on a game where you know the prices havent been reduced and gives you the excuse to moan.?

Moan? The guys just said it was £50 for 1 adult and 2 kids, thats disgusting!

Its not me I’m talking about. I’ve got a ST. I’m just posing the question, if you were someone, say on average wage with two kids, thinking about coming along and starting to follow your local team and were quoted £50, would you? I don’t think I would. And neither did he.

£20 adults and £15 for kids is probably over-priced, if the aim is to get more people in.
That said, most Wiganers expect to get in for nothing, a guaranteed win and free travel to the first three Champion’s League away games that the guaranteed win guarantees, if you get my drift.
IMO and put simply, no NON Season Ticket holder should pay less per game than a Season Ticket Holder.
The fact that the club do run offers during the season is firstly, generous on the clubs part and secondly, proof that they are trying to bring in casual fans.
I’m not certain about this but, if his U11’s where to join the Junior Stripes for a £1, they could then get a ticket for a £5. So that would reduce his cost to £32 (including the £2 for Junior Stripes memberships for his 2 U11’s).
Not laughing at this at all !!

If going to more than one game was the plan, Junior Stripes is a very good option. It actually costs £10 per season (free with season ticket £76), but you get into games for £5 per game.

I think a better pricing structure would be £15 and £10 for Cat C though (and they would be for the South Stand), that way it is still better to have a season ticket, but is much more affordable to the casual.
Or maybe have an adult equivalent of Juniior Stripes, for those that can’t go to every game for what ever reason, where a £20 membership guarantees them tickets for a reduced rate. Obviously this would have to be thought out as it could and would be abused, but its another idea on the table.
FA Cup Winners 2013, sounds good that
