Almost 8500 ST's sold, apparently. Reasonable effort under the circumstances.

That's pretty impressive. Would be great if we could reach the 10000 mark.

I wonder if many have been holding off to see what happened on the manager front? Good move by the club, I say.

Iles and Nixon have just tweeted what a bloody scandal this is. They published a date for all to see and now they're not sticking to it. If they don't stick to the next date, I'm finished I tells ya.

It's an absolute disgrace! If I hadn't already given up on them, I'd be totally giving up on them now. :twisted:

As this is a thread about tickets... the club have announced the match-by-match pricing structure.

• There are four game grades, A down to to D. There’s also two grades of tickets, upper-tier and lower-tier.
• Under-12s get in for £7, any league game.
• It’s also £7 for other concessions (U18, U23, O65) for Grade D games, sneaking up to a Grade-A max of £12 for U18s and £23 for O65/U23.
• Lowest adult ticket is £15 (D, either tier), stepping up through the grades via £23, £26 and £28 (lower tiers) and £26, £28 and £30 (upper tiers).

thirty fvckin quid to watch a division 3 match. It's no wonder at most games we get less people there than ST holders. Who the fvck would buy an individual match ticket at that price to watch us capitulate against Sheff Utd

If we're going to do the graded-games thing, there's no doubt that Sheffield United - biggest crowd-pullers last season, bookies' favourites this season - is a top-rank game. Whether that price should be as high as £30 (or £28 lower tier) is up for discussion.

Prices for the opener:
• Adults £28 (lower tier) / £30 (upper tier)
• Over-65s are £20 / £23
• U18s are £12 (either tier)
• U12s are, as always, £7 (either tier)

FYI a couple of other clubs' ticket prices, for comparison. Haven’t included tickets in family zones.

SHEFFIELD UNITED
Two match grades, three age concessions, all tickets £2 cheaper in advance
Adults £20-29
U18s £10-15

COVENTRY CITY
No match grades but three stadium ‘zones’, four age concessions
Adults £22-26
U18s £10, accompanied U16s £5, accompanied U13s £0

So I'm expected to pay £28 in the Lofthouse Lower plus another £12 for my lad to watch us get beaten by Bury in League fooking 1.

Mouthwatering.

Bury should be £22 for the two of you. :-)

Scrap categories. Adult tickets £20. Kids tickets £5.

Trouble is clubs model this and work out they lose money reducing across board. The argument of more people going at lower prices doesn't hold up in reality.

He didn't tell you that his first house was a shoe box in the middle of the road and his second was a hole in the ground covered by a tarpaulin. Luxury.
