You've also got to bear in mind when considering price increases that we had a price freeze for a couple of years so we are still playing a bit of catch up to bring us into line with what the other clubs charge. I think we're on about the same level now though.

Also if I'm correct in saying 10% of gate receipts get paid in rent then a £1 increase is only actually an extra 90p in profit to help cover our overheads and make the club more sustainable.

Sadly, a logic that could and in some cases may be applied to every SL club. Although, thinking about it, some no hoper clubs aren't worth watching at all since they won't make the playoffs. Plus the fact that the first week is meaningless for a top 4 side....... And I hate going to OT......looks like I might end up just watching the 1 game mid sept next season!

does anyone know if it possible to buy a half ticket for the first half of the season? just moving to sydney in july for a year and dont particularly want to shell out on a ful ticket when I can only attend the first half of the year
