So I have mine and the bairns on separate e mails, had my offer through for mine in one e mail but not the bairns. Can I get his renewal quote by just logging in? Mines gone up to 660. Wondering what his under 18 will be.
Just seen the graphics looks like his will be 180
Have until April don’t we to renew?
Aye you can log in and you should see it (maybe his account) and it should be £180 if you're a pre 2023 in blue section and April 11th is deadline I've seen mentioned.
Does anyone know roughly how much the club generated from season cards this season and what we’ll generate for next season with the increases? I’m sure the money savvy lads have had a look, must be hard to gauge with OAP, Adults, and different kid categories
It's too hard to work out given nobody apart from the club knows what percentage of STs are in which age band or which of the 3 different priced sections in the ground they are.
What exactly are you wanting in the number for? To see how much more we'll generate so we can spend it on players? If that's why then I can tell you now it, the increase in revenue (possibly 25%) won't even be enough to buy another Sadiki priced player that's for sure but probably enough for Roefs. Even the complete match day revenue wouldn't buy a Diarra.
Well if the average season ticket cost 550 (roughly) and multiply it by 38k season tickets we would generate circa 21 million looks like on average we have a 20/25% increase so would generate around an extra 5 million.
It's not £550 average per ST, far from it as we have a large percentage of a younger fan base that drag it down. This is thanks to the size of the SOL and the club not pricing out kids trying to milk the fans for all it's worth like some clubs do.
When last in the PL, it was £370 for adult yellow sections (now £550) and £470 in red section (now £715) most expensive from what I can se. We got £10.8m for 41k fans which worked out roughly £262 per fan. It's that low due to the kids who were £69 and we have 1,000s of them. We were the cheapest per back in the Premier League. We got £14.9m season before from 43k but cup runs also affect match day revenue.
This season I'd have a guess at it being nearer £400 average per fan now so 38,000 would be just over £15m. That won't include the corporate in any way, nor the match day sales. I'd expect us to be well over £20m this season in match day, even nearer £25m and possibly pushing nearer £30m next season.
It's not the huge numbers that will allow us to buy numerous players but it will help in some way. In time prices will increase for sure
For anyone wondering what next season's increase might be like, this is the price and percentage rise if the UBERS had to pay NEW next season and bring prices more into line. The top left table shows how much £'s the increase would be and you can compare it to the right side which shows the increase this season. It's the same with the % with the bottom left being what it would be next season and what it was, bottom right, this season.
I can see the U22s/U18s/U14s are still some distance behind £'s wise when you compare this seasons renewal to NEW, but mainly in the red areas. That's simply because they're premium viewing seats so the club would prefer adults in them pay top dollar and kids in the yellow/blue instead which is understandable.
Will the club just bring the younger generation tickets into line with NEW next season or will the have another loyalty system next season? Increasing the young prices again by a lot may well price many fans out given the comments I've seen from those who were quoted incorrectly (especially the lad with 3 bairns).
The club know that even by increasing the younger generation tickets and losing fans, they've got ST waiting list and those people will be willing to pay the prices. Basically this has happened at many clubs and it's why the expansion is a better as it's keeps the younger generation coming to games. They're the fans who take the place of those who stop going at some point.
make of this what you will. Poor PR.
cheers mate.
