How about we don't waste money on people like Dillion Barnes and Shodipo and look at the prices to get more people through the door The extra money they do make with increasing prices will be offset by pissing off your most loyal fans who will demand a better product on the pitch due to higher prices | | | |

Not saying this in a narky way but if that 2nd paragraph is really how you feel, maybe football is not for you! Some games are great, some are awful - same applies to players and seasons. There are no guarantees handed out in May! | | | |

It's not my view but it's happened at Rangers before when prices have gone up Hoos seems to get a free pass yet frankly he's done nothing to try and increase the fanbase or get more bums on seats [Post edited 30 May 2022 12:30]

The main thing that puts bums on seats is a winning team playing good football. Always has been, always will be. But you need years of that to put significant numbers of bums on seats, preferably without the competition QPR has. We're basically a club of 12,000 regular fans, rising to around 15,000 when we're doing well. | | | |

Absolutely correct, but affordibility is also a key factor. As a senior citizen I can afford whatever price increase they throw at us, but many an adult paying full price that has a family of school ages, will have to consider if they can justify paying the increase. The increases in energy prices, mortgage payments & inflation might stop some renewing. How many people selecting to drop out due to higher prices will reduce the income despite the increase? Tjhis should be a big worry for the club. | | | |

Season ticket help on 15:27 - May 30 with 2155 views | stowmarketrange | So according to their rules I’m 61 and 3/4,but I’m not classed as over 61 for a season ticket.Unless I’m reading it wrong? The original email says on or before 01/08/1960 but that bit above says born on or after 01/08/1960,so I guess everyone is an OAP then? [Post edited 30 May 2022 15:32]

61 and 3/4 would make your age 61 rather than over 61 wouldn't it? | |

Think they have just got the criteria date wrong - it should read 1961. 61 and 1 day is after all OVER 61 - I shall be making that point tomorrow when I go to LR to renew! | | | |

One more thing Stow - it DOES say you have to prove your age for 'new' concessions, this first time, after that we don't have to prove we're not getting younger each year! | | | |

Think that is a £20 increase for Silver renewals, which doesn’t seem unreasonable to me. 4.3% increase after many static years with CPI above 9% and likely to reach 12-15 by the end of the year. Works out at £21 per game. Again, not unreasonable IMO. Gold is obviously more pricy. What’s the increase there? Same GBP increase or same %? | | | |

They've made a bit of a mess of this - it should obviously be those born BEFORE a given date who qualify for senior rate. And it seems you are right it is actually meant to say August 1961 - I was born March 61 and my ticketing account says my renewal is at the over 61s rate. At least there's some benefit in becoming a decrepit old codger. | | | |
Season ticket help on 16:17 - May 30 with 1731 views | Rangersw12 | Renewal prices are reasonable but not exactly going to get many new ST holders at those prices Why can't they just use the lower school end for Blue ST with rail seating and entice younger fans to go. Were sleeping walking to crowds under 10k in years to come if were not getting younger people on board | | | |

I'd like to see that Lower School End brought into use somehow as well. Safe standing, cheap tickets, maybe some new concession levels for late teens early 20s. Improve atmosphere, get some more people into it, and stop the situation we have now where teams are sometimes getting 3,000 tickets down there and taking the place and atmosphere over. Hoos would of course tell you the demand isn't there, policing concerns, and those big away followings are lucrative. | | | |

Agree, need to offer some realistic discounts on lower school end to encourage younger supporters. Special deals for mid week games and lower category matches that do not attract enough away support. | | | |
