Just released ours this evening, £358 early bird, £380 after. Increase of £33 on last season, be a hard sell after the tripe we endured last season.
Early bird till the end of June, Must be expecting some decent signings to sell those. The proof of the pudding etc
Ours are frozen from last season - £275 early bird for a standing season ticket. Memberships are frozen too, basically a season ticket and some added perks thrown in (mainly shares in the club). I’ve had one of those the past couple of seasons and will do it again for this upcoming season.
Gonna need some at those prices. Extra £33 isn't the biggest hassle for me personally, keep it frozen after last season's shite on display could've been a good step to winning people back over but that increase of £45 on Under 18's is the biggest stinker
It's that time of season where prem/championship fans see our non league prices and say 'could watch my team for an extra £50 a season's not thinking about how our clubs lack the revenue/TV money they do and it's the lifeblood of our beloved clubs
Had that same shite patter from our own, how they could go watch Sunderland for £90 more, go watch them then, cya later.
We'd sold 3642 this time last year, and it seems we're about 1000 down on that this year, so early bird prices have been extended to the end of the month And they are: Adult £320 O65 and 18-21 £220 14-17 £110 7-13 £60 U7 £30 (23/24 early bird was: Adult £286 O65 and 18-21 £175 U18 £75 U13 £25 22/23 early bird: Adult £270 (first 500 sold at £200 to pay an urgent bill) O65 and 18-21 £140 U18 £46 U7 Free)
It's the on the day prices that are the killer. £20-£25 to watch 5th tier football is a fairly hard sell to a casual fan. Our ST prices are going up, they need to. Not confirmed prices yet. But I hope there's some meet in the middle by bringing our OTD prices down.
Ours were £250 before end of April. £270 to mid July. Under22s are £105. Great value compared to so many others
New Season. New Era. A lot cheaper than I thought they'd be. £200/£275/£350 depending on the stand. It'll be interesting to see what the OTD prices are. And how many we sell. I think sales have hovered around 2200-2700 last few years. Problem is they've been so cheap that when we've had a shit run, as has been the case for most of the last 5 years, people just sack it off. Hopefully not a problem next season.
How do Woking pay players 2.5k a week (I think you've said some crocks got that) on c.2000 crowds at those prices? With some teams at this level, can see how they generate revenue elsewhere. I didn't really notice anywhere for that at Woking either.
Braintree are going full time? That’s insane unless they have an owner with deep pockets. 600 at a push hardcore regulars.
I'm sure Braintree have the same owner that was around during the Devonshire/Cowley era? They spent virtually no money then, nor did they the last time they were promoted when they inexplicably lost players mid season to 7 day approaches and signed one of the guys from Rudimental, so he must have had a complete change of heart.
