Purslow seems to have stopped turning up in the away end . The novelty must have worn off
It's winter, so wet and cold terraces are not his preferred habitat, just leave it to the peasants.

I was in the 1874 seats against Citeh, and there were loads of empty seats all around the block. Same with the strip of GA+ seats where the boxes used to be in the Doug Ellis, barely any of them occupied.

But we'd probably have 6-7,000 takers for extra GA seats and they might spend a few quid in the club shop on their way in but what do I know.

It needs a major rethink next season on price point, certainly if we don't win anything or qualify for Europe . Demand already seems to be dwindling off .

It's difficult to judge whether a demand for GA+ seats isn't really there, or whether it might be but just not at those kinds of prices.

Tio use the marketing jargon - the mark up simply isn't worth the value on offer.

I pay a total of £65 for me and my lad to go in the Trinity for league games, although getting a ticket for Leicester is proving difficult. I am not paying £200+ so I can have a beer and a few snacks and small queue for a piss

Is that price of £65 correct?

There's plenty of tickets for the Brighton game in the Trinity Upper for the Brighton game, but at £78 I'm not surprized. I wanted to go but I cannot justify paying that especially as my wife and daughters wanted to go. £312 plus the usual add on fees.... no thanks.

I ask myself who really wants it? I go to watch football and have no interest in any level of + Heck is peddling. If he believes that fans want at best, bog standard fast food at an additional £50 per seat he’s off his head.

It's just obviously bad value for money.

It frustrates me that the club was developing and growing quite fast before all this nonsense started.

I still think people are more likely to go the extra mile and pay for something that is premium if it is a genuinely new experience in a purpose built facility.

They have got this arseways.

50 for me and 15 for my lad. That's what I paid for Everton and Soton games

We had to pay membership too so not sure whether that changes price.

I paid more for single ticket for Arsenal game but with better view - maybe 75

Just looked at the Brighton game, £72 to sit on The Holte, blimey! I’m interested in the Leicester game but still around £50 for where I’d normally sit.
I’m being a lot more picky with my games this season.
