you're being disingenuous there, and you know it
the prices quoted there are for the Level 2 hospitality suites with access to new bars, food outlets plus they get parking, programmes and three cup games thrown in
not really measuring the same thing are you
in order to accommodate fans that wouldn't want to buy that package a new stand was built and those fans were given first dibs, quite rightly, in the new stand

I doesn't matter what freebies the club has thrown in to justify the increase, people that were in those areas were ordinary season ticket holders until recently, now those areas are corporate lite.
The majority already in those seats will have relocated into existing areas of the ground,
@Ric was one of them. Some might have sacked it off altogether.
The club priced ordinary blues out of those areas, now it's on the suits to ensure that they're not empty this coming season.
It doesn't reflect well though when there are apparently circa 2k people on the waiting list who've declined the option to buy a season ricket because the remaining tickets available are out of their price range.
The new stand was intended to be full of those blues on the waiting list. But it's largely full of existing season ticket holders fleeing from the vast increases in level 2, and likewise blues seeking respite from the longstanding incremental increases in other areas of the ground.
A lad and dad combo I've been next to for almost ten years relocated from our block due to cost this season.
I think that's a reflection of the wider problem.

Did you read the comment I was responding to? I was echoing his sentiment back at him.
