I'm in a mess, thought I'd had til may to sort it out. I'd put some aside to renew but has spent it on emergencies and thought I had longer to grab back the missing £500 :( I have to pay for two tickets, and have no income. Staggered along managing til now really, I think this year is d day.. stood in the school pick up queue absolutely gutted. Has those seats since 2003, same view as Maine road. Just need to find it in two weeks. Can't do tye credit option, as no income so fail credit things. I'd ask my sister but at the moment she's a tight arsed bitch. Harsh. But true. Any banks with dodgy locks I can rob ;) :(

You've had some good advice on the 10 monthly payments so that's an option for you, but there is also an option to renew now and pay all in one go in July, which might help if you prefer to pay all at once?1000030161.jpg

Just to put a bit of perspective on it in my mind: this morning I went for my annual eye test and as my vision has changed I’m having to have new glasses.
My season card price for my beloved club? £495
My new glasses? £504

Is that for adult or over 65 though? The price disparity seems alot between adult and over 65. Especially as it's increasing year on year pricing families out.

I’m fortunate to have the full amount to pay it in once. Not the greatest lover of direct debits my dad always instilled in me if you can pay it in one pay it so you don’t have to ever worry about it should something change.


Mines up £75, could cut the platinum but I would deffo fall behind on the aways then.

Personal preference but I’m guessing some will be old school in that way like me.

As you get older you realise not everything your parents taught you was correct.

Interest free S/T instalments is one of the best things City have ever done.

I'm sure you pay lots of stuff on DD as we all do.

Each to their own I suppose but it's a perk you are missing out on.

Did that last season & boy did I regret it! Was high ish in CB1 & was convinced to move to kiddies corner of CB1/FS…I absolutely hate it :)
But did it for the grandson who’s now a bonafide blue & watches highlights of the games when he gets in from nursery school. I’m now demanding level 2 such are the scars :)

Fair enough but if it's a case of going or not because of cost then it's an option.

We got shunted to 115 for the cup game Saturday. Fuckin awful and would never go down there given the choice.
Rows at the back maybe but near the front, waste of time.

Two seasons ago I moved from a corner on level 1 to midway up SS3, I think it gives a better perspective of the game and it saved me £200.

Middle section of SS3 is incredible value. I love it there and moving from ES3 when it opened was the best move ever for me.

Over 65. CBL1 Front row. I love it. Before I chose (when it was easier to get a SC) I tried all 4 stands NSEW and different levels. This was the best as far as I was concerned.

I read on the BBC this morning the inflation rate is now 3.4%. The price is my season ticket has gone up 3.5% so I have no complaints.

I’ve been reading on here recently quite a few comments about how the Club are slowly trying to force the Senior (over 65) season ticket holders out in favour of day trippers or those who pay the full price for their season ticket. I’d have to say the evidence doesnt support that theory.

12% increase on mine..so much higher than inflation rate

So putting it into perspective adult prices in cb1 are nearly double what you're paying. That is a crazy difference to me really.

Edit. I think your price is perfect and is what the majority of people should be paying ideally.

As one of the thoughtfully and sensitively named FOC's on here :-) I have found out that my ticket in South L 2 (219) has apparently gone up to £390 from £350, so an approx 11.5% increase. I think that equates to £20.52 per game. By way of contrast I am in Burton on Trent this weekend and am taking in the Burton v Port Vale game. My FOC standing ticket for that game is costing me £16.00. An OAP season ticket for that area this season was £270 albeit for 23 matches. I could do more maths to calculate costs per game and locations and really bore you to death. Bottom line is that for a few quid more I get to watch the World Champions, however, for those struggling and with multiple tickets to buy I can only offer sympathy about these rises. Without reviewing our latest Accounts I cannot recall what percentage of our income is derived from ticket sales and what it will likely be after the 24/25 rise.

Yeah to be honest I don’t think anyone getting a large discount can complain too much. However, I’m sure the club will be looking at targeting this soon too, particularly in the two corporate areas.
 
I stupidly gave up my season in 2011.
I paid £400 to get into the Sergio game and now have to pay 70-90 for the big games which plus £70 train is on the verge of being too much.
Fact is a ticket for the theatre is 40/50 but we see the very best theatre on the planet fortnightly.I dont think at £50 a game a match ticket is overpriced in 2024.
I may try for a new season in the new stand but enjoy the different views i see but have found in big games recently there are literally no tickets that come up on the site no matter how many times you try so miss out.

I think the number is around 1,000 in total. Those will be split between a few groups, not least those currently on Silver (who get the choice of Gold or Gold+), including matchday members. As the release says, if they are oversubscribed, it will go on the points of the adult.

I'll add to this in a moment, but I'm against the Gold+ product due to the £150 premium - which we achieved some movement on. Particularly given a lack of new "normal" season tickets. I did make that point, but I'm sorry any of you who want a form of season ticket will have to pay that additional amount.

What will happen if I as a junior member have more points than my mum? I have quite a bit more points than my mum so would be a kicker if I'd be left out on this because this.

Forgot there are 4 group games next year although £16 cheaper than the other 22 (although only guaranteed 19) £87 is a bit steep.

The writer of the awful letter asking for your thoughts is a bit creepy. I hope you are honest.

What's this net and gross prices?

Really, that upset you the most!

Not the fact you'd given up something you presumably enjoyed,

I did enjoy it but i gave it up to become a full time carer to my elderly mother for 2 years till she died, still went to games i could when my brother looked after her though. I still go to some games but have gotten used to watching on TV now so my former SC seat goes to a different fan every game and that's something the club want.

A ticket for the theatre can be £160! A ticket for Take That was almost £100 (much to my disgust but it was a present for the missus!).

Nothing is cheap in this country now.

However the club need to be careful and to continue filling the stadium means they have to continue being successful as we are only just attracting this huge number of tourists. To get them to stick in more lean times we will probably need another 10 years of success.
