New prices already out....(and they've gone up!) on 22:47 - Mar 16 by uefacup81 | What a spectacular PR failure. From an objective point of view, I would posit that their thinking behind the 5% discount is that it would encourage those renewing to harangue those not doing so using the logic of 'I'm paying more because of you'. On what planet did they think that would ever work, given that the fan base is already fairly united in their displeasure with the way the club is being run? |
I think I agree with you regarding the haranguing point; if we assume that, in fact, that is the club's thinking, it's one of the weakest marketing strategies I've ever seen. So, so bad. | |

I'm more annoyed that I forgot my son is now 13 - costing me £75 extra. I might try to make him do a paper round for the extra cash but I know he'll just refuse. | | | |

Fvck off Evans. | |

No, it says 50% discount on the additional increase for one year for senior citizens | | | |

I notice on the Memberships page that the phrase 'Season Ticket holders' has an unnecessary apostrophe (three times!). I find it hard to believe that a professional organisation would use promotional material containing grammatical errors a twelve-year-old would be expected not to make. | | | |

New prices already out....(and they've gone up!) on 22:45 - Mar 16 by DinnernotTea | Harsh to judge it against Prem prices because of TV deal etc as they can easily afford to charge what they like. It's the likes of Bradford, Wigan and Huddersfield fans paying £200 less than me is what posses me off. |
For the Swans the TV money doesn't come into it as they were much cheaper than us in the Championship too (for STs and with £20 on the gate tickets). They could also exploit supply and demand, as they have a waiting list of several thousands but choose not to rip off fans. But even if we restrict comparisons to the Championship, we're very expensive. The shift in senior age threshold is suicide. I think they've messed this up bigly. | |

That's not entirely true is it... "Secondary school, college, or those starting a traineeship or apprenticeship" No sign of university. | |

Me too! Paid all these bloody years at full price and thought that the following season I would have some reward. Well done ITFC | | | |

I mean, I know that marketing the STs for the forthcoming year was going to be a challenge, but they've somehow managed to make it even less appealing. Honestly, who was tasked with this drivel? I am quite cross about this. [Post edited 16 Mar 2017 22:34]

It's a shambles mate They've managed to introduce a good offer for me personally (that new under 19 season ticket) but yet I can't help but just think we have a bunch of money-obsessed d1ckwangs running the club. How the fook can they put the prices up and then add a stimulation which saves money IF we sell more season tickets based on the shambles of this year. Madness | |

New prices already out....(and they've gone up!) on 23:09 - Mar 16 with 972 views | uefacup81 | And what came of the supposed review into increasing away allocations? From the stadium plan the away blocks look to be the same still. Did the club consider it and then just say 'sod it, we'll just try and get the extra income from home supporters instead'? | |

It's just baffling. Absolutely baffling. Evans out. Milne out. | |

BIG WINNERS 21-23 year olds now pay a reduced rate rather than full adult 12-20 year olds pay a lower rate and in some cases are moved into a cheaper price bracket. LOSERS Adults between the age of 24-59 Those who are over 65. BIG LOSERS Those under 12 who see an increase from €10 to €50 Those 60-65 who now have to pay full whack. | |

It wouldn't be too difficult to leave the existing prices in place for ST holders already in that age bracket but not offer reduced prices to any new purchasers aged 60-65. | |
