no matter where you are the rise is unjustified ofcorse your rite about it not being justified what we are discussing is the thinking behind it and my reasoning is because FSG bought the club because they could exploit the fact we have a high volume of rich tourist fans and while these fans continue to turn up and buy merchandise the Club will continue to increase prices, clubs like Everton and Villa have not got that market to be exploited, this is my point...

I heard a rumour yesterday they are going from £60 to £70 a game next season an increase of 32 times UK inflation. However I have not seen this officially everywhere. Has anyone got any information ?
If true I will have to do some serious thinking woundnt suprise me Stanley, the club would love the ground to be full of out of town day trippers as they spend loads of money in the club shop and will buy sausage rolls for nearly 4 quid a pop... Unfortunately, like you, I'm unable to keep to topic. You continue to turn the emphasis on out of towners, all the clubs woes are down to them. The club does want people to spend, this has no relevance of where you're from.

Its a price thing not where your from thing its a forum and I am entitled to say what I think one of the resons is and I say the loss of the local identity has played a big part. How does sitting next to strangers who you have nothing in common with half the time they don't even speak your language, don't know words of the songs and are only interested in taking pictures of throw ins or corner kicks good for atmosphere, please be sensible... Wait...There are about 25000 (?) season ticket holders, where do they fit in your tale of woe?

The club does want people to spend, this has no relevance of where you're from. ofcorse am going to talk about the negatives as I am a half glass empty person that's how it works the half full people come up with counter arguments which help keep the forum flowing.... I put over a point about the Club targeting rich tourist fans which then has a knock on effect further down the line effecting ticket prices, can't that be s reason, is it that impossible for that not to be the case, do you honestly have that much faith in John Henry to think milking the fans has not crossed his mind when he bought the club... I give full explanations to my thought process unlike others on here who go off topic so counter my opinion, that's what a forum is for, sharing thoughts....

thats ok, I prefer to say they are burying there heads into the sand by refusing to accept that it is now a business and not the football club they once knew...
Good news is that I will not be put off and will continue to post and keep to topic unlike some....

Just seen the prices of the tickets for next season, absolute disgrace, looks like those poor souls in the Main Stand have been hit hardest, can see more locals dropping out with the price nearly 70 quid a ticket. I am sure good old John will of done his marketing homework so can people please tell me again how Out of town day tripping tourists are not driving the prices up, if they never came in the droves the club wouldn't have the demand to charge those prices and even better FSG would not of bought the Club in the first place because there would not be enough profit in it for them.
This is just my opinion by the way before people start getting excited, responses welcome as long as they keep to topic...

You make a valid point then let yourself down by being really stupid.
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.
