Europa Home Games


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.
A better question would be, will we get BCP for attending these four games. Will it be like cup ties..

That will be a massive incentive into getting it packed out.
 
Priority window for SC holders for 4 match package at say £130 then gen sale for the rest at say £140 should do it. Then they’ll be plenty of returns from the smaller teams closer to the match, also media and sponsors return a fair bit for less favourable games.
 
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
73/74 Season

League Cup 2nd Round Relay v Derby 1-1 Attendance 38975
League Cup 2nd Round Second Replay 2 days later v Derby 3-0 Attendance 38460
Cup WinnersCup v Vasas Budapest 1-0 Attendance 22762

All because the club got greedy and disrespected the fans.
 
And if they sell the tickets as a 4 game package, they'll need to announce soon.
The draw for the league stage is 28th August IIRC, so if they sell the tickets soon, we will be buying blind not knowing who the opponents will be. I'd still probably buy a 4 match package, but I think a fair few would wait and cherry pick the games against bigger opponents.

I suspect the sales will be:

1. SC holders bundle (June/July)
2. non SC seats bundle with a new membership scheme (Aug)
3. Individual SC sale (Sept)
4. Individual membership sale (Sept)
5. General sale if any left

The two phases will almost certainly offer a payment plan

If they offer a payment plan and I’d be shocked if we didn’t shift 30,000 to 35,000 in a matter of days.

My guess is

Season ticket holders get 48 hour window priority with option of all four games

Then general sale

If we progess beyond the first stage. All those season ticket holders who bought in the original first 48 hours get priority for all future matches before general sale again

I would like to think BCP were also given to those who use the 48 hour windows
 
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
be £40 per game minimum i reckon
 
95% of season ticket holders will be buying these tickets like. I imagine it’ll be difficult to get hold of a home ticket and near impossible to get an away ticket.
 
I’d expect to pay £40-£50 per ticket with maybe some kind of discount applied if you buy all four at once. Mad some folk think these should be cheap/free with ST. The idea is that we increase revenue by being in Europe.
Do the club get to keep all the gate money or do they split it with the opposition as in the FA Cup?
