Following on from Behindus thread it would be very interesting to see what will get fans into the ground given the Sky Tv,likely fringe players from both sides etc
Obviously there are various kid-a- quid packages etc the club may adopt but to keep it simple im looking at a basic adult ticket price.Remember there could be extra time and pens

Up to Â£20, as it does remain a home game against Liverpool. But it is a cup game that even Coppell isn't that bothered about winning, and likely to feature not a lot more than Momo Sissoko and Jon Arne Riise.

Question should be what would you pay to be guaranteed a seat, however they price it the 17k ST holders will get theirs if they so wish, and probably rightly so, I wonder what would happen at Â£18 an adult ticket for member card holders first come first served, similar to the past.

Â£10, and to be absolutley guaranteed that we're gonna try and win.

will pay whatever, as i always do.

totally understand those who wouldnt pay over the odds, each to there own

So that be Â£28 quid then

not going, on tv and seeing liverpool tear us apart at home once this season is enought for me

Up to Â£25 probably. I just hope the club learn from Burnley last season.

I'm sure Liverpool will sell the whole of the South stand regardless of price.

Surely this could be classed as a Platinum category game, so Â£35 a ticket, lets see how loyal the ST holders are at that price for a game they do not have to pay for if they do not wish.

What?

Not sure how if a ST chooses not to go to an additional game at Â£35 (which I doubt it will be) knowing there are more than likely going to be "weaker" line ups show much about loyalty. It may show that they don't have blind loyalty possibly.

The 17 Bus · by **The 17 Bus** » 04 Sep 2007 08:58

Blind loyalty is still loyalty tho

The 17 Bus · by **The 17 Bus** » 04 Sep 2007 09:00

OK heres the plan, make the East stand Â£20, Â£25 in the lower west Â£30 in the upper west and Â£35 in the north and south stands.

Loyal or stupid?!

I would like to see their existing loyalty repaid by significantly lower prices than those charged to non-season ticket holders who wish to attend.

I think it is very unfair when, despite having committed in advance to a whole season of games, season ticket holders are charged a 'single game' rate for cup games etc.

I think we are getting back in the "I'm a better fan than you" thing again.

ST holders mostly have the best seats in the ground, there is an arguement that it should cost more for that privilege., already happens at many grounds, the best seats are way dearer than at the Madstad.

There are 18,000 best seats in the house?

STs have always and should always be cheaper than forking out game by game, it's a thank you for handing over a large wad of cash during the summer.

The 17 Bus · by **The 17 Bus** » 04 Sep 2007 09:25

it also saves massively on admin and staffing costs in the TO.

What we need is a balance, Â£35 a game is a lot of dosh, but of course as they sold 18k ST last season they had to make it look better by upping the price of non st as well, Â£28 is the lowest price for any league game, I would say that they are exploiting the ST holders the most, the rest of us have a choice.

Stranded · by **Stranded** » 04 Sep 2007 09:35

A ST League game is Â£28.70 regardless of whether we play Wigan or Man Utd. I had the choice not to purchase one, I did because I know I'll be at all bar the Derby game as things stand.

I have the choice of whether I then go to any additional cup ties. One free cup game would have been a nice addition but we've not got it - doesn't bother me as I'm unlikely to go to this one as it's on tv and I go away a few days later.

If I want to watch the reserves I can go to Aldershot and see them for nothing.

however that reserve team will not get to Wembley, tho TBH this one prob wont either.

It's a sad day when a cup game against the Mighty Liverpol is thought of like this, is football dying?
