stortfordred Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I am surprised that the club has not tried to benefit from the current position by announcing early-bird season ticket offers. Many clubs will encourage early season ticket sales by offering next season's at this season's prices. The gamble for the supporter is that they buy the ticket not knowing which division the club will be in. The gamble for the club is that sufficient extra people will go for the cheaper ticket to offset the lower income.Seems to me like a potentially win-win situation.

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Unless the rumours are true and we are building a new stand to replace the East End, but only if we go up, in which case the club has no knowledge of capacity/what to do with away fans etc for next season.

wesco Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I was thinking the same you would have thought they would have introduced early bird prices with most clubs having already released their details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robins72 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 If you join the city foundation your season ticket is frozen at this seasons prices. So they are doing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid £275 for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bh red Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 if we get promotion their is likely to be a hefty rise in prices across the board, although rises for renewals won't be so bad, rumours of 20% price increase for post early bird prices are going around and are quite possibleagain promotion will determine the east end rebuilding so until that is confirmed one way or another I wouldn't expect any news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fat Controller Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 well it just says prices frozen at this seasons price so I guess if you purchased them at early bird price you will get that price. I paid £275 for mine.I paid Student Price this year, £160??? I don't remember. Would be nice if it was frozen as that as I'm not eligible next season for student ticket.

We all had to pay an extra premium for our seats if I remember right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Lion Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Got my earlybird a month ago £370 although that is the dearest ticket in the ground apart from the Exec boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
