Seat Counters - 2024/25

[Alex - City Matters]

Whilst that is a benefit to the fans purchasing the £30 tickets, I don't think it helps fill the rest of the stands and possibly discourages it too whole people wait for the cheaper tickets to become available.
Plus, I'd rather have the 3rd tier of the away end empty rather than parts of the rest of the ground purely for aesthetic purposes.

I take your point, but I think a lot of this could be solved if the Club didn’t have incredibly high matchday prices to start with. If Forest had returned the upper tier, for example, there would have been around a £15-20 gap between what City fans were paying in neighbouring blocks in South Level 3. That’s before you consider the £35 membership to begin with.

I think it’s also fair to say that most matchday members don’t have the liberty of waiting for cheaper tickets, given the Club’s All Games on Sale policy. A reversion to the old system, or at least one that released tickets a few months in advance, would probably be much fairer for members.

As I said in an earlier post the individual match day prices don't affect me as I'm a season ticket holder as well as an foc but I took think the match day prices are ridiculous.
The club need to see it from the perspective of our fan base who are predominantly working class people often with families and facing rising cost of living expenses.
I'm sure if they lowered the match day ticket prices and made it much more affordable for parents to take their children to games it would be beneficial in the long term..after all we have a fairly aging fan base and the kids are our fans of the future..the ones who will replace us when we aren't able to go to games anymore because of age/ health etc.
The £35 membership should be lowered to a nominal amount or scrapped altogether.
By the way I'm not having a pop at you Alex..it's the hierarchy who set the ridiculous prices I'm not happy with.

51,764 was the attendance last night....

Yeah that includes season ticket holders that didn't go

I think fans buying last minute tickets across the South Stand for the Brentford game got the £30 tickets too. There’s always going to be pros and cos with every ticket decision that’s made if we scrutinise in very fine detail. If the overall impact is positive that’s good enough for me.

It’s only the tickets in the away section that are reduced to £30. So those in 315/316/317 etc still pay the higher amount.

Thanks for the info Buckshaw Blue. I know most of the SSL3 tickets are resold away from the official ticket exchange so apart from the very biggest games, tickets can be picked up for around £30 on the face value ticket pages.

I don't think the £35 membership is a big deal, it gets you a £5 discount on tickets plus 10% off in the shop and food and drink. I pay it,go to about 6 or 7 games don't buy much from the shop,but probably get a few pounds back through that ,but usually buy a drink sometimes a pie,so I get more than my £35 back,over a season.

Fair enough mate..but if a family of 4 buy a membership it's £140 before they even buy a ticket.
I guess if you go to 7 games it pays for itself but still unfair expecting families to pay for individual membership..maybe £50 for a family of up to four would be fairer

Yes, maybe there should be a familly membership, though think childrens membership is cheaper, From memory which may be off my sons when he was under 18 was £20.
