Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"
I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "But you don't go anyway? The prices for season tickets are reasonable IMO especially for those who did the auto renewal packages.
And much better priced than the ones at Saints, Wire and Leeds.
Just done some comparisons (Sent them across)
Wigan's prices stand up very well in most areas in my opinion
In particular the Junior section were kids are free Behind sticks and on sidelines for free until they are 8
Whereas at Saints and Wolfs it's only until 5 - And at Wire they pay between £15&20 under 5
After 8 Wigan Juniors pay the same price behind sticks as on sidelines (Something I criticised direct to Simon Collinson 10 years ago when my kids were that age as the gap was over £100 dearer for juniors to sit on sidelines back then)
Between £30 & £53 - Ridiculously Cheap!!!!
Saints is From 6 and cost £52 behind sticks up to £115 on the sidelines
Wolfs is from 6 and cost approx. £50 standing up to 90 (Silver) or 109(Gold)
Wigan have 2 pricing categories for Youth 18-21 & 22-24 (Great initiative and as my son is 22 can now take advantage of this extended age pricing as it's difficult at that age and your just setting up in life etc).
The younger one is 125 to 202 behind sticks & 125 to 257 sidelines dependant on early bird or full (I think the full price is too high compared to the other clubs and could put people off buying for first time at that age - although early Bird is around 170 sticks and 205 Sideline
Saints only do till 21 and its 157 to 188 Behind Sticks and 176 to 248 (Silver) & 270(Gold) (So actually Wigan not that bad???)
Wolfs is to 23 (Not bad but still younger than Wigan) and is 110 to 177 Standing or 122 to 197 (Silver) & 259 (Gold) (Similar to Wigan)
The OAP has another advantage that it starts at 60 whereas Saints is only 65 (not sure about Wolfs)
But again the prices stand up favourably
Wigan behind Sticks 125 to 177 - Sidelines 130 to 209 (265 Full)
Saints behind sticks 157 to 188 - Sidelines 205 to 248 (Silver) & 270 (Gold)
Wolfs Standing 110 to 177 - Seated 122 to 197 (Silver) & 259(Gold)
So once again IMO our prices stand up favourably & start earlier
Wigans Adult prices behind sticks - 190 to 207 Renewal & 261 to 290 for Early/Full
Saints Adult prices behind sticks - 226 Renewal to 270 Full
Wolfs Adult Prices Standing - 165 Renewal to 225/265 for early full (better than Wigan IMO)
Wigan Sidelines - £195 & 230 Renewal - Up to 290 early & 347 Full
Saints Sidelines - £281 renewal & 301 Early Bird up to 337 (Silver) & 362 (Gold)
Wolfs Seated - £193 Renewal up to Early Bird 258 & 311 Full (Silver) & 383 (Gold
So again dependant on when you buy Wigans stand up pretty well and in fact anyone who sits centre of the sidelines they are very much cheaper as we don't pay more like Saints/Wolfs who have "Gold" seating.
***NOTE***
Clubs do have "Family" Tickets which in turn complicates things more but could for a Family make things cheaper
Top line is this
ALL of the PRICES at ALL of the CLUBS are fantastic value IMO and there are plenty options to suit all Wallets/Price ranges
Wigan IMO on the Whole stand up very well in all areas
But up to the Age of 24 I believe the Wigan Prices/options in all parts of the ground are unbelievable value
0-7 Being free anywhere on the ground - whilst others are up to 5 only and 15/20 at Wolfs - Very Good Wigan
Juniors Being 30 to 53 in ALL parts of the ground - Whilst the others are 50 to 115 on the sidelines - Very Good Wigan
Having Young Adults up to 24 Whilst Saints it's 21 & Wolfs 23 - VERY Good Wigan
And prices from Wigan from 18 to 24 being similar to their counterparts or cheaper in their age groups - But till the age of 24 - Very Good Wigan (Note : there are a couple of scenarios were it could be dearer for a Wigan fan if they aren't an existing ST holder and want to be New at around the 19/20/21 age - so maybe something to consider).
My 2 sons attend maybe 1/3rd of games (19 this year) and 2/3rds of games (22 this year) because of Cricket/Work/Uni commitments but I still buy their tickets because of the renewal prices
What the club have done with the U24's and OAP prices is fantastic IMO

fair point, and that could be the sole / main reason, but my general point would still stand, unless we were not able to gain any access to the database, but given people could renew, that would mean that the club did have access to the data (database)
i held a season ticket up to the 2020 season, and purchased tickets online for the games i attended last year, so i dont think i am being unreasonable with my earlier point. Whilst i may not purchase a season ticket this season, a simple email or contact to the people who have drifted away, may just sway some to purchase one for this coming season | | |

Don't disagree
As I've stated a couple of times - marketing etc I don't really have an opinion on, obviously I want it to be Very good and I get from what people are saying that maybe it isn't and average at best. It's just that I'm getting my tickets no matter what, I know where to get them from, and I don't need a letter etc. however I did get the Auto Renewal packs and then a week or so after I got the letters about Renewal & New ST's as well (Which I presume is aimed at me in case anyone else in the family wants to buy them).
My original point was based on Price
I'll say it again - Price is not the issue - And dropping them to anything cheaper than what they are is not the way to go | | | |

yep, i agree with the season ticket pricing. I held my season ticket for around 15 years in the East stand. The auto-renewal is a cracking scheme and value, with the full price ticket very reasonable for a professional sport (although we can all have a gripe about it now and then  ).
i dont know the solution, but like myself, plenty of others have drifted away from watching Wigan on a weekly basis over the last few years. if i was going to get a ST i would be happy at the early bird price available, knowing i would get it cheaper on auto-renewal next year. the club need to workout why we have dropped off, how they get some or all of us back, plus attract new fans to the games | | |
