old_eastender Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Wonder when we will find out what the full season charge will be for the forthcoming season? £170, or £140 if you paid early, last season. I'm presuming if your annual pass is active to August, will be able to watch the pre-season games without signing up for £20 package.

So it should be whatever the going rate is - presumably still £170. 4 hours ago, The Constant Rabbit said: Do they show replays for international viewers? 2am starts get tiring if you have to work.

Certainly wouldn’t expect club to go below that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly wouldn’t expect club to go below that. If annual inflation was negative, as it was in 2009, would you expect the club to reduce the price accordingly? Probably not. The current high inflation is mostly on energy and food. The main costs for Robins TV will be salaries which haven't gone up by 10%, NMW being an obvious exception. They can, of course, put the price up by as much as they wish but the aim will be to maximize revenue which comes from hitting the sweet spot on the demand curve. I would hope that the club are more sophisticated in their sales analysis than to routinely apply general inflation to prices. I recently dealt with setting rates on the hire.of a big meeting space which were last set five years ago. In that time competition has increased for hourly hire but decreased for full day hire so we cut the hourly hire rate and increased the daily. We will then monitor outcomes to see if those decisions were correct and change them if not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, my point was that there is no reason for them to do so. It is an easy and obvious course to take as long as your consumers will continue to swallow the increase. I worked somehwere in the 2000s where the standard contract was for an RPI increase in pay every year. After five years I was on over £10k more than my equivalent at a similar company despite the jobs having started at the same point. The RPI increase was ceased. Despite the RPI increase being dropped I continued to work there for several years and also did most others. When a company notes that they have increased their prices by inflation you should question whether it was reasonable for them to have done so rather than assuming that that is the norm and continuing to buy their product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EstoniaTallinnRed Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) I always cancel my audio sub when the season ends and renew just before it starts again. I always pay monthly and use PayPal, why pay for no commentary for 2-3 months.

Last season I had to have a moan to get the friendlies. Yes, I find a monthly payment of £5 for the Radio Bristol commentary instead of paying yearly or for each game, which is £2.50, good value. Sometimes you get five games in a month and I think the RB commentary is very good, especially when Gary Owers is co-commentator. Also, as I said, using PayPal is easier, as you can cancel and recharge anytime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the video (live match for overseas subscribers) RTV on monthly subscription and it auto renews each month, does anyone know if the upcoming friendlies will likely be available...or does the sub only cover EFL games ? Anyone know? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be doing the same if there's an offer this year - thereby avoiding the same fiasco of trying to elicit a response from the club about last season's promo.

Dolman Queen Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Has it been confirmed that current overseas yearly subscribers can watch the friendly games free of charge? DQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DQ My gut feel would be no, the sub covers league games only. Plus they are selling the games as £5 each (£20 for 5). I guess if you login overseas / vpn you’ll see the games for sell or in your package. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbytheriver Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 MY auto-renewal is in november,due to the co-vid situation. When i go to buy the pre-season package i get the following message you already have an active subscription, starting a new subscription will result in you being billed multiple times, if you wish to change the subscription check in My Account to see if you can upgrade your existing subscription. Slightly confused,does it mean i get the friendlies anyway? can someone shine a light on this please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing to do is wait for the first friendly and load up robins tv and see if it works. If not then you may just have to buy separately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazred Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Just bumping this as i only just remembered to take the earlybird offer of £140. Today (1st Sept) is the last day it's on offer. I also had to cancel my existing season pass which was due to expire soon and auto renew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
