........and some silly prices.

Just looked at the "Seat Transfer Market place" that the club has launched

http://derby.strmarketplace.com/Seat-Location-Rights/Marketplace.aspx

This great schemes let you sell the right to purchase your seats to other fans and keep the money in the even of you nnot being able to renew.

Now this is okay for sold out areas like the SE corner etc....where I would guess some people would take up the offer, but only if the numebr of seats up for grabs match their requirements. But for other parts of the ground I think there will be plenty of availability for seats.

Look at some of the prices on that website now - West stand between £300 and £500 quid just for the right to buy a seat - it doesnt inlcude the cost of the season ticket

North stand £200 per seat.

I would love to know who is paying these prices for the right to buy a season ticket. Personally I would wait until they go on sale again.

if someone can't renew then their seat should just be sold to another fan.

can't see why there should be a 'transfer fee'?. ...if you don't renew then you don't own the seat ???

i must be missing something

I think its about transferring renewal rights - which i assume include the early renewal benefits which can save a lot of money over the period of price freezes.

Take last this season for example someone who was a new season ticket holder in a recategorized CATC seat would have paid alot more than soemone who was renewing at the old CATD renewal price.

The seller gets a bit from the sale, and the buyer benefits from reduce season ticket price compared to the price for a new season ticket holder.

i don't agree with the principle of it.

if you're gonna renew then renew

if you're not then let someone else have the opportunity of a season ticket.

its all a bit Arthur Daley.
