Just posted something similar on another thread.A ticket for Ajax vs Vitesse Arnhem in two weeks, dead centre behind the goal, is 25 Euros. AC Milan vs Udinese, a fortnight later, will cost me about 28 Euros (£20). PSG, for some league games, charge as little as 20 Euros.Yet in this country, most clubs in League One and League Two, have prices set around a similar mark - if not higher.Personally, if I'm planning to go to a random game in this country and I can't sort out a freebie, unless it's a local derby or 'big' game, if the price is higher than £20, I won't go.Game by game ticket prices are scandalous across the board.

That is why my mates are season ticket holders for £149 or buy the 50/50 tickets where you pay £50 for the card and then £10 every time you go.Go to more than six games with a season ticket and you are going for free in comparison to pay on the day.I agree Bradford have a terrific deal for fans but I am sure you would agree they have the stadium capacity to make it work.

Man United charge £28 behind the goal.
I agree in part Viking. The team and performance, coupled with positive results will bring the crowds back, regardless of the £23 ticket. If people are seriously interested, there are ways available to make the ticket price lower.What is paramount is to invest in the squad - we seem to have a manager we can now trust to get things more right than wrong (unlike the previous one). We have to use the performance and crowd support from Saturday and open the throttle up a bit. A new loan or two will only 'up the ante' for all supporters who now must be reconsidering whether to stay away any longer.Over to the Board!
'Investing' in the squad seems to be about the only opinion you ever offer Alan. Ok, so if the manager was to bring in that 'loan or two', who do you suggest gets dropped from the team that played Saturday?
Keep it simple.Season tickets £300 (=£13 per game) + disco at club shop + same seat + no need to buy a ticket for every gameOn the day £15#twentystoomuch#nothingrhymeswithfifteen

Using your figures. Season ticket £300 (miss 3 games in a season, which many do) price £15 per ticket.You want £15 per ticket every game. No commitment come to games you fancy and not to those you don't.Do you still think this is a good idea?

I think they would be. The problem our club has is that we sell a lot of concessionary tickets. So in that figure of 13,000+ the actual return is much lower than the £15 we all paid.I could be wrong, but the last time DBR and myself discussed this with the club I think the average, for league games, was in the region of £7 per ticket.
