This year i have to pay for my own season ticket for the first time.
I am currently 17. Will this mean i have to pay adult prices? or is there a lower price for 17 and under?
Anyone know what it was last year?

There was last season and as far as I know this season there will be a 'young adult' season ticket, from 17-21.
It cost me £239 in the Seddon. So I am expecting it to be around £280 for this season, when the prices are announced tomorrow.

I think you are right on there Potter basaed on the Sentinel - this is how it all looks with under 21 being 75% of the full price
Well you can see what they have done for Season Tickets.
£344 for Boothen end represents only 27% increase (from £270) since the 2002 season. That is good.
Okay there would be less games in the Premiership but £18 a game to watch Arsenal and the like - okay Fulham/Bolton and the like too - but amazing value.
At that price we have to be looking at 15,000 Season tickets - even if the impossible happens and it is Championship - PC will spend again and we will have an even better season.
I like the 10 monthly payment idea too - it makes it not worth waiting for Match Day prices which are bound to be £25 a match - in the Boothen.
If they have used the same percentages elsewhere in the ground and the 10 month offer is available everywhere then even 20,000 Season Tickets is not out of the Question. It will be far cheaper to pay monthly than pay for each game - sometimes 2 or 3 in a month.
GOOD WORK STOKE.

Happy Days, Mike. That's less than Scholsey promised when we talked about the general rate of increases, over the last three seasons. (Glad to see the 17-21 ST has survived ... Glad to see he kept the "bargain" of no increase if we do go up). The new 10-months payment sounds great too (is there "interest" ... hope not) All in all - Cheers Scholsey, you're a star (and Top-Job ALL concerned) NOTE: Anyone not buying a Season Ticket - at those prices - who moans about the cost of match day tickets ESPECIALLY if we do go up ... Will be taken around the back of the Boothen ... and then Buried Under It  ah |

The ten month installment plan IS interest free apparently. This has to be great news for some of our fans. The 17-21 ticket on interest free terms over 10 months has to be the best deal ever for students. All that and cheap beer in the student's union!

Cheers Forny,
I don't think I could be happier with it then; great to see they stuck to what they said.
I make that £258 for a 17-21 (inclusive) in the Boothen, then?
(Hope you're well, John?)
ah

Yes fine thanks, Andy. Well as fine as I could be after being blown inside out when I took the dog for her walk in the Borrowdale valley this morning.

Yeh, with me turning 18 this time, I will have to pay the under 21 price for the boothen, so I think it will have to be the 10 monthly installments for me, although I do admit that it is good value.

Although the prices for next season look good, the club are putting a little bit of media spin on the prices. It wont cost £2 a match more to watch premier league football, if we get there, it will be £5 a match more due to less games.
2007/08 Boothen End £299 = £13 per match (23 games)
2008/09 Boothen End £344 = £18.11 per match (19 games)
The £2 increase is only applicable if we fail to go up!!! Still not complaining at £18 to watch premier league football though!!

Not sure if the £2 extra per game quote is the club's spin or the Sentinel's typical "in depth" journalism? !!
The cut off date is mid April Andy - the 17th seems to stick in my mind.

I thought I'd get in before the "questions" This is the final year of the-deal on ST pricing. We are now at prices that are competative with the teams who we compete against on the pitch. Prices and links (cheapest Full-Adult Ticket Price Used)Brazil£299 - INCLUDING a discount of £50 if purchased before 01/04 making it £349 after ... well done Baggies PRice ListCharltontinaNot yet announced (well, I can't find 'em!) tickets.cafc.co.uk/main_tickets.inkWatford£365 - INCLUDING (as yet unknown) discount - This IS the Early-Bird Price and for existing ST holders only! Price List(ooooo ... pdf ... look at Watford ... warning, took a week to open on my mahine  ) Brizzle£250 - Read on. Price List(ooooo ... pdf ... look at Brizzle ... and it opened quick on my machine too) Fair play to Bristol City! The £250 is available in one stand only. It is unreserved seating. This has been asked about before on the FF ... and Stoke have a point when they say "Everyone who currently has an ST in the blocks we pick as unreserved will moan and moan and moan and moan and ...". So we don't have this option. As I say, fair play to Brizzle. The Cheapest reserved-seat at Bristol is: £355 (including a £20 discount for "Foundation Members") Hell£355 - Including £30 early bird discount (to 03/05) so £385 after Price List(ooooo ... pdf ... look at Hull ... and it opened reasonably-quick on my machine ...) Palarse£330 - IF You bought before 31/12/07! Is NOW: £460 and that is STILL early-bird (until 15/04). To be fair they do A-Lot of discounts and offers (including "family tickets and so on ...) Price list(HOW painful is that!!!??? sort it out palarse! ... and I have saved you considerable time! ) (Someone should tell Scholsey to look at this lot - Some of it is very clever, and so very cheap for a London club) PlyMuffWHO KNOWS!!! Price listIf you can find anything that looks like it might be a price ( ... all r Season Ticket Prices Linkz is brokenz!) then please let me know ... cos I can't! (If there's no edit-timer on 'ere ... then I might add a few more later ...) The Baggies are cheaper: Yes, but they have been bouncing up and down from the Prem for the last few years. SOMEONE should remember to look what they do next season though, if we do go up, and then tell Scholsey! ah (phew!) |
