For anyone struggling to get the prices.



I was an early bird buy last season so first renewal this season so up £15, would be £35 more buying on same basis. Thats not that bad I don’t think.

Didn’t reach too much on it just saw they were doing it.

Really!!

We have 2 guys, willing to invest their well earned own money, and try and get the club upwardly mobile in the process, and at the same time try and make it self sufficient... which to start with has come at some considerable cost to themselves, and all you can do is try and bad mouth them..

Give it a rest, you're outta order.

He’s obviously a Feckwit! Which proves the fact ‘ Care in the community ‘ Is not working

Your having a laugh if you think its a community club. It's in a secure barnacle grip of a select few who are happy to spend other people's money and be largely unaccountable.

Oh f**k , not you again 😡

Correct, I was a mere early bird last season, not a renewal. And, as posted above, W7 have gone up £50 - from £376 to £450.

The early bird renewal this year for W7 is £425. I paid £396 last season in W7, as an early bird but not a renewal.

Just in case anyone wants to make comparisons from last season's prices

Shouldn’t be a problem for TF living in London. Don’t know why he gets so bitter.

Clearly you've managed to misunderstand, I'm not having a go at the Kirks you absolute remedial. I'm against the tactics of those in charge of the community club, they are happy to bring in massive loans from councils and use the Kirk's money to keep themselves clinging onto ownership of the club, even at the cost of having to find extra interest on preference shares rather bring in investment that dilutes their power. Still what more could we expect from people who were on the board when the club was dying a death and they just stood by and did nothing lest it lost them their seat at the table? Seems quite clear to me they cared more about being a board member than the health of the club. Someone with some principles would have resigned.

I'll be delighted when the Kirks own the club outright and we can put the charade of community owners in the bin. It's like Animal Farm at the minute, some community board members are more equal than others. They are of course supported by the usual hangers on who never question anything lest it affects their own gravy train. Absolute Barnacles.

Is the price band on purchase or season start? I have a 16 yo now who’ll be 17 when season begins… big difference for someone still not earning.

My Senior West Stand ticket has gone up £33.
That is less of an increase than expected.

So my being a paying customer for over 65 years is not enough.If I was in receipt of a CEO's pension I would not give it a thought, unfortunately most of us are not.

I think the club is very poor in its timing… why not be clever and promote this at the end of the month….its when people get paid, more likely to spend at that time.

[Rodney's Moustache]

£80 increase for east stand adult in the last two seasons.

[needdm]

Anyone know the cut off date for when a person qualifies for the senior rate. I couldn’t find anything on the clubs website. Normally I would expect it to be just before the season starts, in which case the clubs decision to increase the age at which the senior rate applies is flawed. Many 65 year olds will turn 66 during the coming season and start receiving their pension, but will potentially have to pay the adult rate for a season ticket. In an extreme case someone turning 66 in August just before the first game wouldn’t qualify for the concessionary rate despite becoming a pensioner, whereas if they buy on a match by match basis they would

Why is it cleverer to delay it? How would more be sold and more interest gained?

Or as much notice as pot? Or gives folk a week before they’re paid? Or… Or…?

I think the club off the field deserve lots of criticism but this? This isn’t one of them. It’s not as they go off sale quickly

I believe it's your age when the next season starts. Last season I paid in May at the 65 and over rate and my birthday is in June.

I think when you go online to renew it will show you the rate and so we'll be able to check on Thursday, cheers Paul.

[Fact Checker]

Wow, the increase is far less than I was expecting - really good pricing for the entertainment on offer, I’d say.
