Super Scotty Murray Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I think as a season ticket holder who already forks out a lot of money to go to City that £39 for a ticket is a bit steep, no matter who the opposition is. Of course I will still pay it but going to moan about it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View from the Dolman Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Aside from not offering the member discounts, they're just regular gold prices. Would be a bit odd if the prices were cheaper than what we charged for the visit of Leeds (as massive as they are). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be returning home on the 19th of Dec for Xmas with the family, so will try my damnedest to get a ticket for this! I think the pricing and priority brackets are on the whole well thought out for this game, but this 'home' ticket purchase history only is a bit off for me. Paying to see this club either home or away should count as the same. It is harsh in cases like yours but I guess the club has no financial benefit from you being at an away ground so they aren't going to priories you. That's how they see it btw, not my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilksi Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I think the ticket prices are steep and twentysplenty, but I fully understand the club wanting to maximise profits for this game. I have a question related to linking season card tickets. I have just added my mates season card details to my friends and family, will I be able to purchase his tickets for him on Monday, or will he need to do something on his account to allow me to buy them? Had a look at the FAQ's on the ticketing site, but it didn't say anything about linking accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastside Moonwalker Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Fair play, shuts a lot of people up who have asked for tickets despite never going down I guess. Glad to know i'll be able to get my seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reading Red UTC Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Pleased that I booked Reading boxing day now. I would like to think that anyone in priority 1 - 3 will get a ticket. Predict that it will get to priority 4 but will sell out from there very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Grim Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 8 minutes ago, BRISTOL86 said: Really? Whilst I’ll still pay it, £33 for the same ticket that was £15 vs Palace seems more than a little steep. I get the maximise revenue thing and I know that they’d have sold it out even at £50 a ticket but is a greater than 100% increase on the prior round really justifiable? Meh maybe it's because I was fearing the worst. Add I think I paid 30 quid with my membership for Leeds. A little extra for a game against one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the quarter final of a major cup competition I don't see it as too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were 600ish fans at that game. It was a Tuesday night in round 2 of the cup against a prem team. It was hardly attractive but surely getting out to Watford in those circumstances to cheer the club onto, ultimately, this match should count for something.

Kingswoodactor Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Already a queue system to get on the ticket section of the Bristol Sport website! People must now be buying up tickets for the upcoming home league games to make sure that they can make priority 2 category!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incentives for members to purchase future match tickets as well as an incentive to purchase a half season ticket. Clubs marketing approach really has improved recently, we are thinking ahead more and seeing the wider opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point being someone could live 10 minutes from their ground could have bought a ticket being their only game, yet giving everyone who went a ticket would give them one too.

My son has a season ticket, he’s 6, he sure as hell isnt going to a game kicking off at 8:00pm, so can I purchase an adult ticket with his season ticket ID? Not that I think I’ll be able to offload it to someone if I get one... Yes you can. Just add an adult ticket to your basket and then allocate to your son. When entering the ground with that ticket, it will flash up green to indicate full payment has been made rather than blue for concession. I have done this with a linked SC before. Good luck finding someone who wants to attend this game though. 4 minutes ago, Wilksi said: I think the ticket prices are steep and twentysplenty, but I fully understand the club wanting to maximise profits for this game.

shelts Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 The club have got it massively wrong . I am a Plus member and am still in the same priority as season ticket holders . Surely plus members could’ve been given an extra ticket ? As for the ticket pricing bumped up after we’ve paid less for two other Premiership teams at home it’s a disgrace And symptomatic of the greed in football and at my own club . Will still buy tickets for myself and family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your point. Give them priority one at least then. TBH we're talking hypotheticals as the club have decided the policy. It's 600 people, many of whom will be STs anyway.

Engvall's Splinter Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Bit of help required. Ive purchased 7 tickets but over 3 games only for Cardiff, Burton and Villa (have been down against Derby, Plymouth and Millwall also - friend bought those so is in the same predicament with 7 tickets over 3 games). We’re both members. Do we apply for Priority 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityfan101 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 whats with people saying its fair pricing. its not at all. its pure greed from a club that never pays back to their fans. huddersfield season ticket for 2017/18 premier league football ..£199 weve made tonnes on our run this year. how about thanking all those that went to an empty watford on a tuesdsy. or plymouth at home. stoke and crystal palace both prem clubs and now its more than doubled. standard bristol city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
