randombc Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I just don't get it, is £510 (=24,000 roubles) so much money that make it tough for a lot of people to buy the season ticket? 24.000 roubles (£510) = half of monthly (ave) wages in Moscow. Isn't that expensive to be honest. Anyone know how much money the club makes from season ticket sales. Using the 24,00 x £510 gives us just over £12 million, however, you have the free under 12's tickets, and the average for adults, juveniles and OAP's? I'd guess around £9 million? Which is a pretty similar to our wage structure. Plus the club get money from merchandise sales, cup runs and for being shown on t.v. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Teale Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I wont bother getting a season ticket as I havent the last few years, I get tickets for pretty much every game free so why pay? While I dont need tobuy one has the price actually stayed the same for 4 or 5 years or when you renew do you pay last seasons listed price?

Which is a pretty similar to our wage structure. Plus the club get money from merchandise sales, cup runs and for being shown on t.v. 2 years ago (with 21,000ish season tickets) we had a total ticket revenue of £6.3m for the whole season, so doubt it's anything like that, maybe more like £4-5m. If there's one reason we don't seem to spend much on playing staff compared to other clubs without our attendances it's probably down to us having season tickets "too" cheap.

duncanjwitham Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It's nothing to do with having tickets 'too cheap'. The amount of money we make from ticket sales is relatively minor compared to what we spend on the playing staff. Charging a higher price might get us another £250k player plus their wages/bonuses/signing-on-fee/agent fee etc, but it's not going to let us spend money like Leicester etc do. That's all down to whether the owners are willing to put extra money in on top of what they are getting from us - and looking at the sort of value for money that Leicester, Ipswich, Forest etc are getting, you can see why ours are less than willing.

And then there is the £50 voucher......................and out of date shirt! That's where I am - just behind the goal. £275 last year + £110 for my lad so I'm looking at a total increase of just under £40. I can live with that, although I can see the increase might be difficult for some. Do we both get free shirts and vouchers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRamFan Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'll be renewing, not surprised by the price rise, wonder where that puts us in the league on ST prices? I'm sure someone knows a link to that 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> It is a good offer to renew early, I am sure some will be tempted by the shirt and £50 voucher, however the quite clever thing is that they are offering 0% loan so you can pay it off in stages at no extra cost.

Diag Ram Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 The fact that we are operating at a loss indicates to me that every penny of income (plus more on top) is being pumped back in. Operating at a loss is a bit of a misleading term. Yes, the company's "expenditure" exceeds it's income, but in a set of accounts, expenditure doesn't equal cash out. Also bear in mind any player purchases would go on the balance sheet as assets rather than straight through the Profit and Loss account. Expenditure like salaries will go through as expenditure in the year, but the player costs will only go through bit by bit, as the cost has to be spread over the player's contract. Having not seen the accounts, I'm not sure what's gone on the balance sheet in the year, but the movement in assets will suggest if the club have made an investment or not. Finally, being an accountant has paid off!

This is gonna cost me a bloody fortune, but for football every week you kinda cant complain I have no excuse, I spend 200+ on petrol a month, so going to football is a much more useful way of spending money. In the grand scheme of things it really isn't bad, obviously next year it'll double just about but still affordable all the same! More money into the club means... another big singing, no? well a man can dream, if nothing else... gives me something to moan about all week!

trooper Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'll be renewing, my lad gets a free one but my other lad is to old I think!! Was 12 in sept, my brother tooney-r is thinking of getting one this next season as he missed this one, so may take up the 4 for 735 deal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Ram Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Okay, so I'm going about moan about it, say how unjust the increase is, find every excuse as to why I shouldn't renew and then pick up the phone and order new season tickets. Dare I take my chance with freebie give aways and discounted tickets on the bring a friend deals? I bet the £50 voucher runs out before the 12/13 kit is revealed, probably the week before, you wait and see, or is this just my cynical side comming through?

Ramarena Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Ah, didn't realise that, however could be a good option for some. Note to self. Always read the T's and C's. Whilst the 0% headline sounds great there is a big sting in the tail for those that won't be able to pay it off quickly. This is an offer the club aim to make money from.
