FOSUNS's dirtiest trick was to increase the price of a disabled wheelchair user under 21 ST from £211 to £498 - an increase of 131%.
Under 14 tickets in Billy Wright upper are going from £105 to £290 - an increase of 176%

Even ' client journalists ' Liam Keen and Nathan Judah have gone in on them after this dispicable round of increases.

Nice owners at Molineux thesedays :finger: Still, ' one pack ' and all that.

If clubs can still sell tickets at such increases, they will continue to push prices until supporters vote with their feet.

I think a lot of Prem league clubs would prefer to have fewer season ticket holders.

Regulars generally spend less per match on extras whereas if they can sell more tickets to tourist fans they receive a lot more add ons such as shirt sales etc on top of an inflated ticket price. You only have to go into somewhere like the Man United megastore on match day and it’s clear who spends all the match day cash.

Yes, i`m fairly sure some prem clubs withhold st`s in order to provide spare seats for football tourism.

I doubt that such "football tourism" really thrives in the hallowed atmosphere of NLN.
The price of our season tickets depends more on the demographic of potential ST purchasers (premiership is 48 years old) and the close season expectations of the 2,000 hearty souls who take enough interest to attend matches.
In the past 2 seasons I paid £253 and then £276 last season, so Im anticipating £299 next month.

Hereford closing in on 1000 sold and have raised 40k in their crowdfunder.

Interested to see what value we are offered by the club this week.

£357 is the early bird season ticket for that god awful stand Hereford put away fans in, Harriers season ticket at any price is already better value just for the view

Can I infer from that announcement that an East Stand match day ticket is going up to £25 per match?! And North Stand is £23?!

I think that’s just the on the day ticket office price which makes the ST comparison look better. I assume still £20/£18 if bought online.

The above must be correct. They say a freeze on individual prices so 20/18 in advance but the quoted savings do mean it must be 25/23 on the day. This will probably catch a few casual home and away fans out.

Really pleased they’ve reduced the kids ST to £23. Felt short changed last year paying £69 for an 8 yr old only for a load of the games to be kids a quid.

Just followed the instructions to confirm ST reservation and getting an error message.
Same as last year.
I'll try tomorrow.
UPDATE: glitch resolved, season ticket reserved and paid for.

I've just bought my season ticket. Richard Lane's statement about resisting putting up the prices made me smile.
I know statistics can be manipulated to tell their own story. I'm old and quality for for a seniors' standing ST (£230). However, it cost me £57.50 per home win in the league and just over £12 for each Harriers' home goal. Without the Aldershot and Oxford City games, those numbers would look eye-wateringly expensive.
Let's hope for considerably better value in 2024/25

When you factor in just 11 home league wins in the last 46 home games/2 seasons, its even more expensive!! :shock:
