I've seen this mentioned a couple of times last few days but not seen a link, is there an article where this was stated? Cheers.

Yeah they were doing this last season, I managed to quickly buy a ticket online against Saints at home (where we won), I was working and didn't think I'd make the match but for a stroke of pure luck (and a speedy drive home from Liverpool) I made it to the game with ten minutes to kick off. I must admit I was well impressed.

It was from the media day I think. I saw it in what seemed to be one of the Loch Lomond Legends interviews that was done for the media guys in attendance and Rads interviewed him. It’s on Wigan TV now.

That's true. I signed up this year for the first time and got the discount.

There you go
Sign up for Auto renewal and get the discount in year 1, even better deal than I thought.

The basic premise was sign up to the early bird offer and always receive the best price for your season ticket. As you mention start changing eligibility criteria to claw back lapsed fans and no one will sign up early in case a better deal pops up.

Absolutely, and as you and others have said, the early bird prices are available to everyone.

I can't believe that the idea that someone that was a customer the year before getting a better price than someone that wasn't causes so much confusion/annoyance. It's literally the same in 99.9% of businesses. I can buy a number of things in Tesco for less than someone else can. Absolute scandal!!!!

If I buy a train ticket on trainline for a train in 3 months time, then I will probably pay less than someone sat next to me that pays on the day.

Ultimately, if someone travels on that train every single day and has an annual pass then they'll have paid less for the seat next to us than the both of us.

Bloody rubbish trains!!!!!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was, and it was the interview with Ian Lenagan.

Match day and season tickets are still very reasonably priced.

The issue is not prices!

I’ll be interested to see if clubs like Leigh, Wire and HKR continue with the big pre match shows (and obviously KR have the fan village at one end) and then to compare their crowds to teams having similar seasons, but who don’t do a great deal pre match. Will enough people turn up and turn up early enough to make it sustainable and profitable?

yeah but what hes saying its thats garbage too, make all tickets the same as the annual pass, not hard Adam

And what me and a few others have pointed out is that thousands of people pay approx 6months early up front to take advantage of that.
Wigan get the money early and are guaranteed that 1million pound or so up front
It is a DISCOUNT For doing so

As stated now numerous times people can still set up the Auto Renewal, so there's no excuse, unless they don't have any intention in the first place.

Set Match day prices and non auto renewal at same price Pro rata as the auot renewal STs and people won't buy the STs, they'll just pick and choose.

Reduce tickets to that price and no way will an extra 5000 come through the gate to offset those reduced prices
