Not renewing?

Me too, but if they continue price rises at the same pace as this time (+28%), mine will be:

25/26 £460
26/27 £590
27/28 £755
28/29 £967
29/30 £1237
30/31 £1584

For the cheapest adult category :eek:

That's completely wrong as they won't be increasing it by 28% each year. If you were a ST from 2022/23 or before then it's been around 20% so you must have bought a ST after August 2022 or one of the fans who've been shown an incorrect renewal price.

They've also increased it by that that to bring it into line with the NEW prices they released after June 2025 when we knew we were in the PL. We've been cheaper overall than many clubs over the years and even the NEW prices aren't that bad when comparing to other PL clubs, especially since we've been out of the PL 10 years so prices haven't gone up like they would have if we'd stayed in the PL.

This is what it looks like when you have the renewal prices in the left columns (for early birds from last season), how much they went up by in the middle column and the percentage increase on the right.

Just interested to gauge specifically if many people have decided not to renew their season ticket for next year due to the price rises? Or if there is a price point where you would say enough is enough?

Obviously other personal circumstances can influence a decision to renew (income/health/moving away), but it would be interesting to discuss specifically around the pricing.

Personally speaking, as long as I'm working and it remains affordable I expect I'll continue to renew but would probably draw the line eventually if they continue compounding far-above-inflation increases year after year (this year mine has gone from £460 to £590, an increase of 28%), and I'm sure many of our ST holders will be even less tolerant of continuous price rises.

I think your renewal price is wrong, mine went from £460 to £550 for North Stand, UBER ticket

Less than £35 a game isn't that bad really.

It's a fifth the price of a top tier gig ticket these days.

That mindsets why a lot of the things cost what they do they do. As people just happily keep on paying.

Top end gigs being that price relative to seeing some of them bands at festivals is ridiculous. So not really a good example.

Them top end gigs the main band set is normally less than a football match these days. Long gone are 2+ hour sets.

Seeing those same artists on the continent being cheaper just like the football.

I don't like it when prices are compared to concert tickets. Concerts are usually one off events for most people not a regular occurrence like the football.

£35 isn't too bad though granted.

It's not a comparison I like to make meself, but it's an event ya pay for.

I'm not sure I follow any kind of logic that might suggest football should be any cheaper because it's more regular.

Don't kid yourself on though.

If we stay in the prem it will get closer and closer to a £1k a season with some going over £1k

Same people saying £35 a game isnt bad will probablt say the same when it's £50(which our most expensive game to game tickets in normal areas are £48.50 already with padded seats without hospitality starting at £99.50)

Making it £35ish a game is nearly thr price of current game to game cheapest tickets of £36.50 So logic tells you they will try to keep doing that in future seasons.

Festivals are a totally different kettle of fish to a touring band's gig.


Things cost what they do because costs are higher. Some people need to get out of the dark ages.

And I've not seen many touring bands do less than 90 minutes mind.
 
Hoping theres a few dont so i can get one!

10 Years of playing rugby on a saturday 3pm have stopped me getting one
 
My season card is £550 which isn’t too bad as it averages less than £30 a match.

If it ever starts to get close to a grand in the South Stand then that will probably be enough for me.
 
All 9 of us have renewed. Thing is, now with 38,500+ Standard season ticket holders and with home games completely sold out, a season ticket waiting list in the thousands and when away clubs send tickets back they are selling out too, if you dont renew you face the proposition of missing out for a long long time unless Stadium is extended. Club is in a win win position at the moment.
