That Friday Feeling I guess I might as well cut up my Barclays Premiership card now :roll: .

Do Coca-Cola have an interest free credit card for buying season tickets with?

I was wondering about this the other day. When I got it I'm sure it said in the legal that ALL FOOTBALL RELATED PURCHASES were covered by the interest free offer... Wouldn't that include all season tickets and away tickets no matter what division or what club? Also, I'd take that to mean stuff from the club shop too.

I believe the Barclays card works with any football clubs (though they market it as a Premier League card, obviously). Basically, any tickets purchased from a company registered as a football club are interest free.

Disclaimer: check with Barclays first before trusting my knowledge!


I'm fairly certain you're right. From what I can remember, the terms just said that the minimum value of the season ticket had to be £250.00. No Premiership clubs selling tickets that cheap!

im really surprised people think the prices are great value. I certainaly wasnt expecting them to be any more than they are.

Season ticket prices UP 42% on North Stand prices from 3 years ago, despite huge TV income and f all spent on players.

Match tickets prices for under 12s have DOUBLED from last seasons silver catagory games.

I think many have people have been brainwashed into thinking they are good value due to 2 seasons of Premiership hype and rip off prices

Having said that, Mr Le Mesmer will be renewing :wink:

Or:

23% on East and Lower West stand prices - not bad considering wages have increased.

Match tickets for 13 to 16's have stayed the same.

Match tickets for under 12's have only increased by £6


That and the rumours of no price cuts actually mean things could have been a whole lot worse.

Whore Jackie Go down, I reckon we're looking at, on average, a £100 reduction.

SpaghettiHoop What's a fair price for twenty three games? I reckon £360.


It will be at least £500.


I actually don't believe prices will even decrease at all.


Merked. :oops:


Really pleased to hear that ticket/season ticket prices have been reduced - fantastic decision and it shows as several people here have already said they will renew having previously thought they wouldn't.

Hopefully this will see attendences be as high as possible next season and try to keep the stadium full.

Just put a Coca Cola sticker over it, It should last one season if you take care of it.

gh7901 I was almost certainly not going to renew but I suspect I probably will now...


Ditto, I was adamant I wouldn't renew, but now I'm wavering.


:roll: I knew I should have put a bet on that, Jezza!


JSC. Murked by RFC.

Again.

Excellent move by the board, very sensibly priced. I was fully expecting no drop at all and waffle about 4 extra games bla bla.. nice to see the Online Ticketing system actually working now as well - funny how they made my password my old 'password reminder' though :shock:

Have to say that the prices are far better than I expected them to be. Good to see that the club have listened and/or recognised the market force realities. Still think they might struggle to achieve whatever their target for season ticket sales is, due to the way people are starting to feel the pinch from general price inflation.

We changed up age brackets at the start of this season so we're got Premiership Memorabilia season tickets. 8)

I do! I lost it on a bus then it got handed in after I replaced my season ticket. I want to be able to use my old battered one with the old phone number for the ticket office again . :lol:

Said at the start of the thread my guess was £430-£450 so wasn't far off. Think we'll see a majority of supporters renew.

:shock: Did you really think that they would reduce prices to those of 3 years ago? Considering all the extra expense that has occurred in that period
