| Cheers.
Does anyone know if you can upgrade and still pay the renewal price? I've got one adult and one concession season ticket but am looking to get a 2 Adult and 2 Junior family ticket from next season. Will I have to pay the early bird price or will I get the renewal price?

| And whats the difference between the South and North Stands? I was expecting one to be a prawn sandwich stand, costing more and being empty for most games, but it seems both the seated stands are the same price?

| It'll be £39 cheaper for me to renew and buy the others individually as early bird ones.

| Does anybody know what the Match day prices will be next season, I cant see them on the website?
I'm sure that the Home standing end (West) will be more or less filled with ST holders (4k), which means only South and North seating tickets for general sale. With the season ticket price at £290, it equates to £22.30 per game.
Presumably it will be over £25 per game on the day? Don't Saints usually charge more on the day than a ticket in advance as well ? Cant see too many people walking up and paying about £28 on the day.
I think this will be the key figure for your attendance.

£28 is fine for the premier rugby league facility in the country. At £4.71 per person per game, the family season tickets represent unprecidented value.
(Note to Eammon, I'm better than your sales/marketing fools, hire me and I'll fill the place out week in week out)

No matter how good a facility, the reality is only 6.5k are turning up to watch at the moment, which I am sure the majority will be season ticket holders. You still have approx 7.5k seats to sell to home supporters, the majority of which will not be season ticket holders.
They will not think over £25 TO £28 is great value for any Rugby facility, especially when its on the TV.

The reason 6.5k are going is because it's in Widnes, it's purely a matter of convenience.
In 2008 Wigan averaged over 14k but could only muster 6806 for an elimination playoff at Widnes. That's just the nature of the beast. It's hard work getting to Widnes and back on a Friday night - the crowds will significantly rise at the new stadium regardless of price, I am 100% certain of it.

I'M not trying to start an argument here or troll. I've looked at your new price structure for Season Tickets and I was wondering on Match day prices that's all.
KR was mainly terrace, so for somebody that used to turn up on the day and pay£20, to now have to pay something like possibly £28, isn't going to help get a much bigger average attendance. That's why the orignal question was asked.

That isn't the only reason though is it?
For instance in 2009 Saints only managed to get 6,157 to their first round play off game v Huddersfield at Knowsley Road. The truth is that people pay for their season tickets and then for whatever reason don't want to pay again for Challenge Cup / Play off games (particularly the early rounds)
Saints need to think long and hard about the pricing structure for non season ticket holders otherwise it could put a big dampener on what looks to be a superb venue.

| That was exactly why I asked the question. You would imagine if they are already selling the season tickets, they will have already decided the match day prices.
It could be the difference between 8-9k season ticket holders and up to 12k Saints fans at games.

But why is it any different at Saints than it is at other grounds? It's around £25 at most Super League grounds, certainly the big clubs.

While I appreciate your point has some merits, you comparing Saints v Huddersfield (no exactly great travellers) with Wigan v Warrington - is hardly the same, in the same seasons League Games Saints v Huddersfield in the league got 8078, play offs 24% lower, Wigan v Warrington got 15,500, play offs 56% lower, there is a drop in play off attendances but nowhere near 56%.
On the Season ticket prices I would expect each side to be £25 advance, £26/27 matchday. Compare that to Hull £24, Leeds £27-£30, Warrington £24, Wigan £20-22, based on 2011 season prices.
