Prso's headband 35,340 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 My favourite one in the lower leagues was going to Airdrie, above the turnstile it said adult £15, looked down at my ticket and it was something like £24 if iirc. Mental but aye a cap of £25 is acceptable I think. £34 for yesterday is just ripping it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Supply and demand. A business charges whatever maximises its income. Ibrox sells out for every home game so our board can argue that prices are right. As for the diddy teams would reducing the cost lead to higher attendances. I doubt it.

scottyscott1963 18,208 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 When I saw the "20's plenty" banner at the glitter dome,i thought it was something to do with kerb crawling speeds. Me personally would let the tramps whine about the prices on their tod. Fuck them,next we'll be sharing toilet "cubicles" with the rancid bastards.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Living where I do I don't get to games very often - maybe once every 2 years - but I pay my $299 to RTV every June. Gives me all domestic games home and away. Prices do seem to be high however. The cynic in me wonders if the green tims have been told it's full price from now on. I have nothing to back that up. It's just a thought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking tbh. I don't think you can use teams like that as an example mate. The teams in the EPL could give away every ticket for free the entire season and still make profit due to the TV money. Our existence depends on the Ticket money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissg910 110 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 It only works if every match is £20. Home and away. For every team. That is the only way that is possible. Personally its because the piggery is half empty every match.

andyhrfc 2,242 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 We should be concerned about prices. It needs a collective response from all fanbases. The EPL cap away tickets at £30. This came about after a collective effort from fans of many clubs with the "Twenty is Plenty" campaign. Gate receipts in England contribute a much smaller percentage of clubs' income than in Scotland. Diddy clubs rely on inflated tickets sales to the OF. Problem is that nobody wants to watch a lot of the diddy clubs matches. You could make it free admission and I don't think you would get anywhere near filling StMirrren v Ross County for example. So they need to make the money where they can. Given the standard of Scottish football a "£10 is plenty" campaign might be more appropriate. We should also be concerned about potential ticket prices at Ibrox next season. We have a demand of well over 50000 for most, if not every game. Could be a hike of a few quid for a game next year. So we need to make a case about prices, even if only to prevent further increases. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say every area of Tynecastle had a similar quality of view - pretty good to be honest - but would be very surprised if the home fans paid £34 a head?

folkestoneger 8,084 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 If you want better players then you have to accept higher prices. No big companies are going to pour money into our game in Scotland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gj923 1,457 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Problem you have in Scotland is that we are either the 2nd or 3rd highest league which rely's on income from fans via tickets. Hearts for example in 2017/18 had 43% of their turnover from gate receipts.......you reduce the 4 old firm games and 2 derbies and they could be 600-700k down easily. Motherwell whilst maybe not the best example reduced their ticket prices a good number of years ago with the hope it would encourage more fans to turn up....it never happened.

Ace 3,556 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I think Twenty is plenty for away fans at any ground. Problem is RFC & CFC fill most of the away ground we go to & clubs couldn't afford that lose of revenue. However, the bare minimum should be that away fans NEVER pay more than the hone fans at the same game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
