I can't recall whether you stated that yourself invested in a season ticket or two for last season? Have you seen interest rates recently? They wouldn’t be earning much per £1000. Certainly not enough to cover the price of two tickets for the United game. So, the gesture of giving you free tickets would definitely cost more than any interest they would have earned on your money. Yes I did renew my season ticket last summer and, given everything that has gone on, am happy for it to be carried over to next year and the free RamsTV coverage I’ve received far outweighs any interest I could have earned on the money.

The interest on a grand annually at current easy access account rates would be about a fiver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VulcanRam Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 11 hours ago, Tamworthram said: Another thing to consider: I would imagine more than 8000 people renewed so we’re not just taking about a handful. Meaning, it’s possible that a large proportion (maybe even all) of the fans attending would get in for free. The club might well end up losing money when you consider the costs of staging the game. c8500 renewed and capacity for Sunday is c8000, so if everyone who had a ST last year got in free they would be running it at a loss.

You're paying anyway by receiving less than the quoted interest rate. So to receive 0.5%, the earned interest rate would be 0.625%. Good going in these times.

Brammie Steve Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Manchester United? Didn't our manager play for them at one time? Maybe he'll put in a guest appearance in a Man U shirt! Improve Derby's chace of winning maybe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked the last interest received and it does work out exactly to the penny at 0.5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s £1000 per year for a standard rate tax payer meaning at 0.5% you’d have to have savings (excluding ISA’s) of £200,000 before you started to pay tax on it.

I won't be watching then. Last season you could get a monthly pass for £12.50 I believe. That's every game for a month. This is pre season. One pre season game and you have to pay £10. Complete joke.
