Nucasol Posted July 25, 2025 Share Posted July 25, 2025 44 minutes ago, Paully said: So £55 cheapest ticket for a league match in the Gallowgate? Jesus £8 rise in a season. I paid £47 for Fulham, £50 for Man Utd and the same for Liverpool. That’s a gentle 15% rise. Silverstone is a fucking cunt and they’ll kill the stadium expansion plan if they carry on like this. It does seem the two most ambitious teams outside the Breakaway Bandits (us and Villa) are also the two teams with the most brutal year on year ticket price increases. That sweet, sweet PSR protecting the clubs… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted July 25, 2025 Share Posted July 25, 2025 Have the Trust made any contact with the club or released a statement regarding these astronomical price rises? Surely this is bread and butter stuff for a Supporters Trust and something they should be all over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing they've publicised that I've seen, just a "Significant price rises from last season!" on Twitter on a post about the Liverpool pricing. Not had an email or anything from them either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaurentRobert Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 (edited) These price increases are astronomical. £72 to sit in the east stand for the Wolves match. What the actual fuck? I wince at the thought of champions league ticket prices this season. If the league games are anything to go by, it wouldn't surprise me if it'll be around £80 for Leases/Gallowgate and north of £100 for tickets in East/Millburn. Disgusting Edited July 26, 2025 by LaurentRobert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 It’s all Silverstone can do is milk the fans. The club is being ran as a ghost ship. PIF need to fire the fucking lot of them and seriously considering the agency they’re using for executive recruitment. Whilst not wanting to kick a man with serious health problems, Eales and co have been a fucking disaster, made worse by the fact they had the nerve to complain about PCP’s running of club.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 Sounds like a couple of new execs are on the way anyway. Not sure it’s fair to say all we can do is milk the fans when we’ve increased our commercial revenue by 30% or whatever. Or does that include ticket sales?

Rich Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 Fairly confident I could have increased our commercial revenue 30% year on year from where it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some 63% Aye, but some were still paying about £15-20 per game until the end of last season ? They should have been expecting a whopping price rise given what everyone else has to pay And even with that whopping rise it’d still mean their tickets were substantially cheaper than what members have to pay Edited July 26, 2025 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteV Posted July 28, 2025 Share Posted July 28, 2025 Just now, Rich said: Better or worse, we reckon? It’s passed me by. In theory, neither really. It should speed the whole process up, which is probably a necessity given the amount of games we’ll have. You will have to be more on the ball with dates and stuff, as you miss the 24 hr application window and you’re knackered basically. And obviously they need to make sure they are transparent with allocation numbers and sell out points, otherwise there’ll be endless accusations of ‘corporate taking all the tickets now’.

bobbydazzla Posted July 28, 2025 Share Posted July 28, 2025 (edited) Would like the chance of going to an away game Got to have a season ticket How do you get a season ticket It's been impossible for 5 seasons Oh well Edited July 28, 2025 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted July 28, 2025 Share Posted July 28, 2025 Actually, one other thing I’ve just realised is that, assuming your application is successful, you get to pick your own seats, which is definitely better. I also think it means away travel groups are now obsolete. Not sure if that means that you have to have linked accounts with people you want to sit next to, so one person can select all the tickets at the same time (assuming you’ve all been successful)?

So there is at least a legitimate way to attend an away game without owning a ST, even if it does depend on ‘knowing someone’. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted July 28, 2025 Share Posted July 28, 2025 Also I find it hard to believe that 50% voted for option 4. Everyone I know who’s voted did not vote for option 4; yet they’re claiming 50% did? It just stinks, dressing up a club decision as fan led one just like they’ve done with ballots and checks.

How hard can it be to say ‘our allocation is X’? Then announce what the cut off was in terms of points it sold out on. Just setting themselves up to get unnecessary aggravation.
