Agree with Lids here like

Think Boro are the third most expensive season ticket in this league?

Considering we're in a deprived area it's fucking shocking

Considering how much more people are having to fork out now just to eat and heat their homes it was amazing how good our crowds were last year.
The season ticket prices are far too high and walk up prices are an absolute disgrace. Cost me for 2 people to go to game last season around £100 with couple of drinks and travel costs. No way will I be going more than a couple of times next season.

The reason why I stopped going was the walk up prices being shite. Some of us that contract and work away for a living can only go to certain games, yet are punished for it. Make the seats a couple of quid more expensive, fair enough but 10-15 more guarentee's stay aways.

Unless you are premier league you lose money full stop in football.

To knock out cheap season tickets to get a few more through the door will rattle the long-term season ticket holders. And they are on a good thing every year. and are the life blood

He has tried all the initiatives over the years.

The one way to fill the stadium as was shown last year is to put a winning team out on the pitch.

unfortunately, in this day and age you can either afford to go or you can not.

Pick and choose if you are on the bones of your arse :katie:

Can't argue with any of that but it could be handled in a way, to explain why some can't buy season tickets and can only attend a percentage of games. I think the original point is, that the ST prices are too high to begin with, given the area where we live and the struggles that follow. The bonus of having a successful team is that you fill the stadium regardless, as folk will always find a way to go. For me though, I lost the buzz a few years ago, and the fear of missing out on big games just doesn't bother me. Don't get me wrong, I go through the emotions of the games like everyone else when we play, but I lost the urge to be physically part of it.

Mackems love to take the piss out of our pricing and no fucking wonder' weve had to put up with failure for years and had to pay through the nose for the privilege.

I can't disagree with your comments. The way/cost through the door for the first year is pricey, the benefits as we all know come in the second year on renewal of the early bird, and thats without the free drink many still get.

it's getting over the first year of expensive spewing up type of price that you pay. Once you are on board the cheap ride starts.

Walk-ups are expensive, but you can not budget beforehand with a walk-up, its performance is related with them. Business as we know is run on cash in the bank beforehand.

Plus if you are doing 10 or more walk-ups you must be nuts not getting a season ticket instead.

In a nutshell.

Walk-ups are and will always be expensive.

Season Tickets are expensive the first year in a cheapish there after.


Its a tough call if you are not working or are skint, but then again if you are on the bread line, then football should be a luxury, not a nessesatiy for families

The walk up prices are too expensive and I say that as a card holder,the club is hostage to the season card holders whining if they drop them,and it's a fallacy that extra crowds would spend on food and drink,I'm sure the commercial dept have data on crowds Vs spending.The generation red family zone is very good value.

Correct in one sense but once the team is playing well and winning like the season just gone,they come out in numbers and pay the walk-up prices which as we all know are top-of-the-shop prices. Proving the money is out there.

It's all about winning or being in the premier league and, Gibson knows that.

the extra 10k season tickets at prem prices in the prem will probably out strip the 20k season ticket cost the championship brings in.

What about trying to buy tickets with my own bank card and it gets rejected?...............

I cannot afford to go. Simple as that. What grates on me is when a fan cannot afford to go the ST holders sneer down at us.

How can my commitment to being a Boro fan be even questioned?
Errr... REDROAR.

Maybe i do it wrong and Nichols has it right.........

What ST holders sneer?,you'll always get the "partimer" jibe,that's as old as the hills. I buy a card for convenience and cost even though I'll miss at least six to eight games a season.Walk up prices should be a £5-7 more than the card price and no more. Next time I have a spare ticket  I'll DM you,pick you up and drop you off all on me.
