The pie i got wasn't even one of the ones on the menu.
So it wasn't just the wrong pie it must have been from another room or the concourse.
Looked like oven chips as well 😂

If we going off forest prices for last season then we have no chance of selling out if we charge £50 cheapest adult ticket and £75 most expensive per game.

I was thinking £100 for the 4 match bundle (£25 a game ) I think that’s reasonable and realistic.

If the club think people will pay £50 a match then they are in for a shock. Sub 30k attendance

Adult SCs in the north stand for premier league games work out at about £29/ match, so I would expect the Europa League games would be the same as that at best, I'm expecting maybe £35 per game.

I doubt it too, but I also dont think it'll be a rip off either, given the universal acknowledgement that the team need the connection with the fans in a heaving SOL.

It surely has to be a priority that they get the pricing right to sell out.

There is definitely a balancing act. The issue the club have is due to UEFA SCR, it puts us at a disadvantage in the PL. They therefore need to maximise revenue from the Europa.

Of course at the same time they need to keep the fans onside and fill the SOL.
 
Much as we laud the club for its achievements but fact is it is owned by billionaire businessmen and run by CEO’s like Burwell
Every home game is worth at least 1m
Does anyone seriously think people like that would forego that sort of dosh

Tommy B legged it round to Greggs.

They had nee steak left, this was about an hour in....I was like, had on, Tommy Banks can get Michelin Stars but can't heat up a load of pies and jockey whips!

The lass asking for the online feedback will have got a message saying "STOP THE SURVEY....I REPEAT.....STOP THE SURVEY!!!"

They’ve got to get it right though, 47000 x £35 is better than 30000 x £50.

I really think the club need to be very careful with the pricing. Games against juventus , Milan benfica etc will sell out but games against MÄLLBY of Sweden & LASK will be very low if they don’t get the pricing spot on

Mine was like lamb mince with peas and veg, didn't match a single pie listed.
Good job I've got no allergies.
And the usual fries weren't fries, they were cold oven chips 😂
 
There's very little money in the Europa compared to the Champions League. The prize for qualifying for the group stage is something like £3.5m but we obviously need a bigger squad of first team players to remain competitive and have to adhere to UEFA's 70% SCR. Where clubs make the money is the matchday and hospitality income from the extra games and the increased profile and sponsorship opportunities further down the line. It's not like the League Cup where you're better off keeping tickets cheap to get people through the door.

Certainly not advocating the club take the piss but anyone expecting £20 will be very disappointed.

It will be significantly more than that.

Could easily be nearer £250 for 4 games if you're in one of the more expensive ST seats.

On a match by match basis I think you'll be looking at around £45-£60 a pop to encourage people to buy the bundle.

If it’s £45-60 a ticket then the offer to buy all 4 won’t be £250??
 
It won't be done on a BCP system as their home games They might open it up to season ticket holders for 48 hours first like.

I also reckon they will give an option to purchase tickets for all four games in one swoop.
