Oldland2 Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) Just saw that you can buy a centre dolman adult ticket for £18 , Bc are taking the Micky out of loyal season ticket holders because their ticket works out at about £ 23 per game Edited March 23, 2022 by Oldland2 Spelling 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHIPLEY RED Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 I guess this is a special promotion for a game unlikely to sell out. The same as quid a kid games. Over the season a season ticket is better value even with the odd special offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until last weekend when I missed due to Covid, I don't think I've missed a home league game in the last 10 years, so I'm getting VFM from the SC (well I would be if .... ). The real issue at City are all those SC sales for this season where the card holders don't turn up. The Gate really did look sparsely populated on the RobinsTV stream v WBA - it's more evident than when you're at the ground becasue the camera looks down on all the seats.

Wiltshire robin Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 Like said above it still works out cheaper with a season ticket . It’s much better than £39 a game for non members no wonder the grounds half empty every game now . Seen a chart the other day with prices for all champ clubs and we were joint most expensive with Fulham I think . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selred Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 One off game. Won't bring overall average anywhere near season ticket cost per game. Hopefully will attract new fans, as right now we are massively overpriced for any casual fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the pandemic has had a real impact here. Firstly there are SC holders who for health reasons don’t feel able to attend on a regular basis. Secondly a number miss a fair few games through either testing positive or having someone else in the household who does. Finally I think the culture of going to every game has been lost with the opportunity to see games online, either legally or not. I know a few SC holders who live some way away who can afford their SC but are infrequent attenders. A bit like the red button decimating midweek away support, this is a cultural shift.

David Brent Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 You’re not paying a one off £23 though..You’re paying for the advantage of a £23 ticket for each and every home game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you've got something there. And if you spend a season where you've attended (say) only half the home games in person, why continue to buy a SC?

An end of season game with nothing to play for was certainly not attractive. At these prices I must admit we’re more likely to attend.

But only if the online payment at the end of the process allow you to pay.... all I get is "ticketing system being updated"..... I'll now give it a raincheck.
