Doesn't make sense. It’s almost like they’ve got nobody in the ticket office that knows what they’re doing, or they do and realise that there’s more money to be made by making level 7 tier 2. Would be interesting to know their thought process on how lower bowl seating is cheaper than inferior seats in level 7 though ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is there are no ST holders in L7 and therefore all seats for sale are one offs and at the new market levels (higher) than the lower bowl where they maybe feel they need to price closer to ST pro rata prices many still on deals this season. Just a guess mind as like you’d think L7 should always be the cheapest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very same happened to me and my daughter for a cup game in the very same section last season. In the run up to the game we were baffled by how the seat Nos suggested we were sat apart but it all became clear when we got in there. Seats were together.

mattypnufc Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Now 2/5 for me in the ballot. City and Burnley games. Applied for PSG. it’s all very random. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Also, an oft forgotten point and another reason to be annoyed. Burnley is £44 a ticket for Cat 2. A similar game last season was £35 for members. An increase in over 25%. Season Ticket holder prices went up 3%. Members are being milked dry and mugged off.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Aye, when Villa was £44 I assumed there would be a lower category of game below it, but looks like it’s the minimum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye with Burnley being £44 for Cat 2 that will definitely be the minimum as they will certainly be in the lowest category of teams. Considering we've played Liverpool, Villa and now Burnley at home I think it would be a reasonable assumption that there are only 2 different price bands that opposition clubs will fall into as Liverpool would definitely be top price band.

Eales and Silverstone are winning They're selling millions of billions of memberships at £37 a pop and have ramped up member ticket prices by 25% but most people are too pissed off by the ballot to have noticed the price rise Figures for commercial uplift from ticketing will look great when they sit sown with PIF for their annual salary reviews and bonus pay outs Next in their sights will be those pesky season ticket holders on their cheap deals Edited September 22, 2023 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
