yarddog73 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Let's start the match day thread on a nice positive by giving a mention to the weird pricing structure for the game which puts off the casual fan who may of been thinking about making the trip by charging them double. https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2017/october/19102017-carlisle-united-fa-cup-ticket-prices/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics and England Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 What's the issue? They are offering discounted tickets to our ST holders. That's a good thing surely? £7.50 is a cracking offer. If you are a season ticket holder and want to go, get a ticket. If you aren't a season ticket holder then £15 isn't too bad. If you don't fancy it but rethink when you wake up on the day you are still getting change from a score. It makes a refreshing change from the days when their season ticket holders would get the deal and we'd all pay £17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcshuck Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 It's not that bad. £15 is bang average anyway, only a plus to our fans who have a season ticket .... and surely its deserved as they have invested in one. Also I know many season ticket holders who don't venture away, especially not long distance. So I'm sure you could get hold of a spare one somehow.

Pricing is fine, I'm just not paying double the price that Dave sat in front of me did just because he has a season ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckshawlatic Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Every time you go to a home match as a non season ticket holder you are paying more per game than those who are season ticket holders. no difference here and non season ticket holders have and will benefit from numerous discounts, free games. PS I don't have a season ticket and see no problem at all with this. £15 is reasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They separate the home and away fans with screening.It's a big newish stand and our part is down towards the small open end.Strange looking ground and floodlights for those who haven't been.

There has to be perks of having a season ticket. Fair play to the clubs. People ‘not being able to afford a ST’ there is finance so people can’t complain.
