ketteringram Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Pretty sure that three or four seasons ago, I paid £36 for the home game against Leeds. West lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philmycock Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Disgusting attitude by DCFC. I've been a season ticket holder since 1984 but I feel really let down by the club charging so much for Matchday tickets, no wonder the atmosphere has gone downhill, only posh people can afford to pay match per match. I wouldn't have a problem with the matchday tickets being the same price as my season ticket per match as long as it fills the ground.

Poor show Mel, p1ss poor As a season ticket holder should get your match tickets cheaper. You have paid up front for your season ticket. But the price they charging is rediculase.

DavesaRam Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 And when all is said and done, its only Aston Villa. How did they get to be such a high rating? They were crap last season, and never were a glamour club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Ram Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 For someone with the technical know-how, is it worth putting a poll on here to show what the current prices will do to people attending matches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Wrong message being sent. End of..... Filling the ground every week at lower prices makes more sense. An average of 3,000 seats empty every game as it stood last year. 3,000 times £25 is £75,000. 23 times £75,000 is £1,725,000. I rest my case, especially if my maths is correct. - (Not including Concessions, call it £1,000,000) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'd won it would have been a great weekend and a bargain. Instead it was a little bit pooh wasn't it? Especially seeing Gary O'Neil skipping about with 'Arry.

Poor show Mel, p1ss poor Spot on, I couldn't give a **** what walk ups around me are paying, I buy our season tickets on the basis I like our seats, and not to sit there thinking how great am I, I've paid considerably less for my seat than you.

rammieib Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 I had the same response from DCFC. Generic response written to anyone who writes and complains. i put Sam Rush in copy. No idea if he will read it but best I can do for now. Trying to get Steve Nicholson to approach Derby on it but he comes across quite arrogant at times on Twitter although he does reply to messages. Genuinely believe there is a story here to be written by The Telegraph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Gritters. But there's a line to be drawn between financially supporting the club and Dave the window cleaner being able to take his lads. Think we're crossing it here on this price. I think the response from the office is more frustrating than the price. If it was a letter from Mel saying "look what I've lost! Here's a tissue!" it'd be easier to swallow. Not that rubbish they sent back to GSTAR about fixtures and attractiveness. I dunno. It's not really Derby I suppose. It's the nature of the game. A rat race. And the daft hardcore who get walked over are collecting the bill. Which gets you this divide and alienates them from their clubs. But no way should we all fall in line and accept it. It's great to see fans unite on this sort of thing. But while there's those that will pay it then others are turning their backs. It's not hard to imagine a time when you just turn away and start looking for something local people are backing. But it'd be better if we could drag the club's back down. Even the ones desperate to leave their communities in favour of China. A few years ago Man City were loving their loyal Maine Rd support. Now they're looking for the highest bidders. Selling themselves to Beijing and New York. It's happening. They're advertising right this minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you and I admit that I paid the ridiculous price at Norwich the other season and Sheff Weds last year. I take my kids too so the expensive matches really stand out. I actually have more respect for the clubs with a cheap ticketing policy now. It was only last season we were giving Derby a pat on the back for the cheapest ticket in the league. However the price of football is getting too high and I can't see why you pay different amounts for each game. We are paying to watch 90 mins of football whether against Real Madrid or Matlock Town. I don't differentiate between the two. Until someone comes in and sets the cost of tickets for all games at £xx then unfortunately this is what clubs can do. I blame Brexit.
