I’m not complaining about the increase I think the Season tickets are a bargain, it’s the stranglehold the Stadium management company have over us!! They have increased prices at games over the last season at an extortionate rate!

| Plus if it's too much the payment plan will help i mean £20.00 a month is pretty good. As Red Fusilier says it will be an exciting team next year.

| One more home game for next season. Looks like the POTD prices will break down like this:
West VIP: £50
West: £25
East: £22
South: £20
Whilst I can understand the increase in stadium costs, which are inevitable considering it's probably not the most profitable thing ever, I'm not sure on mentioning the fact we're getting a better team as a reason to increase as well. The idea that the money you pay should be proportionate to how good the team on the park is has never sat right with me.

| No qualms on the pricing for me, yes there has been an increase but there’s also an additional game. For example last season’s early bird deal for the South Stand was £162 which equalled £11.50 per game, this year it’s £190 at £12.60 per game.
I’d also like to say how impressed I am that the club have managed to sort this out in July. I don’t think any other club has done this and gives supporters 9 months interest free to spread the payments, excellent stuff for families who don’t have hundreds to shell out in one go.
Regarding the costs inside the ground, I don’t think they’re much different from anywhere else. If they offend you so much, don’t purchase anything. I’m sure you can go an hour and half without any food inside the ground. There’s burger vans outside, or take your own stuff in.

| £190 for the season is brilliant value, will renew that without doubt.
As for the price of drinks if you ignore the quality of the sludge they serve it's average for a sporting event (though paying $1 for a bottle of Bud at the Big House still astounds me). Think non of us would complain if the beer served was good quality.

You’re missing the point! I would happily pay for refreshments inside the ground if all the profits went to the club!

Sorry but it’s a pointless point to moan about, because it isn’t ever going to happen (or not at least until MK owns the stadium).

Not really pointless. Whilst there's not a lot we can do about it at the moment, it's a genuine concern that people are entitled to feel aggrieved about. It's just a case of how d you are about it, really.

My comment was with regards to his concern is that the profits from refreshments etc don't go to the club, not at the prices. Like I said pointless discussion.

I know that's what your comment was about. That's also what I was referring to. It isn't a pointless discussion at all.

its most likely he'd get an outside catering company in to run the catering and match day refreshments side of things and then they would take a share of the profits so not much of the £4 you pay for a pint of flat Carlsberg would end up back in the Dr's pockets anyway, but its a noble stance.
its the Conference facilities that's the money spinner, I know John Smiths had their national conference there a few months ago that must irk the Dr to see all that money going to the owners of the stadium.

| I don't understand what relevance the drink prices have to season ticket prices. Rent/Prices go up that's a fact of life. I appreciate that it does make going to a game slightly more expensive but . I normally don't bother getting a drink at the stadium apart from maybe a bovril now and then. As it stands I'm happy to pay the difference if there's 14 games it's just under £2 a game more than last year and if there's 15 then it'll be less than £1 more (based on east stand prices)

The best way to get the Stadium Company to drop their prices is simple,don't buy anything that they sell.
The season ticket prices for next season are good value for all concerned in my opinion.

Am I missing something or does it actually equate to £12.46 per match this season ?
As for the flat fosters in a wobbly cup forget it, I just get a four pack on my way up for the same price as one pint .
