We need the bucks to survive in this league,simple as.

There is no easy solution and as GW says,whats the club gotta do?

Its a no win situation

I'm absolutely fine with it personally, £15 quid to watch my team play is a pleasure, the alternative, is getting dragged round boundry mills! Infact, I'd pay £20!!!

As someone who narrowly avoided being made redundant a few months back, I can see why some people might be annoyed. £15 is a lot of money in a recession for a couple of hours entertainment.

However the season ticket is a great deal because it pays for itself after 7 games.

In fact, I know of 2 people who were just occasional fans who are buying season tickets.

I think this is aimed more towards away fans who will be coming in much larger numbers next season and they all have to pay at the gate.

To put it in to perspective i'm a Norwich City fan (because someone has to be!!) I went to 3 away games in October and the cheapest I paid in to an away end was £19 at Carlisle.

WE paid about twenty one quid to get in at Carlisle!
I think the season ticket is good value, a fat bloke in a red suit will be stuffing one down my flue...ooh, Matron!
Last season I believe cup games and stuff were also included, is this happening again?
And where did I get the idea that buying early got you one for seventy quid, when it is obviously a hundred quid on the website?

we are paying £10 England v Australia!! Might be just shooting yourself in the foot Couugars not encouraging for fiirst time "try it" people. I am going to find it very hard this year sorry.

thats a shame, Helen, just let everyone in for free but this is gonna sting a bit, the players won't get a penny and we will never be able to invest in better future players!! Guys you have to realize that the dough has to come from somewhere, if you can't afford it than fair enough but don't blame the club,niels pockets do have linings you know, what more is he to do??????!!.

I think the club know, the new prise rise could cause a problem to people.

I bet that's the main reason for the fantastic deal on the season tickets.

Isn't that a discounted price?

yes everyone can get it they want people there

And its a good deal. The RFL are desperate. If they don't fill Elland road it will look terrible on tele and to the sponsors of the game.

Keighley are giving a fantastic deal to fans with the season ticket.

I don't really see how the club can compete and not put the price up.

Hi all

Sorry was off yesterday but the gate price is £14 not £15.

Apologies

Helen

helen, although i agree a price rise is needed, like many people i will find £15 hard to come buy and dont have £100 to spare at the moment.

do you think it would be a possiblity for some type of menbership scheme that enables reduced admission maybe a one off £10 payment and a £2-£3 reduction per match. burnley fc is an example of this where a membership is £20 but it saves £6-£7 per match for those unalbe to afford season tickets who attend regular.
this way you are not braking admission policies and can still charge away fans £15 and not worry about lost revenue.

PM if needed its just an idea which may mean more walk on fans can afford to attend.

i know this will recieve critisism but surely its better for example to charge £10 membership and then get £144 for someone attendin 12 matches as appose to £0. just an idea that could be implmented

Sounds reasonable, maybe a bit too late to set up for the coming season though.

£5 a week buys a platinum KC club membership with season ticket included and discounts on club merchandise, and various supporting outlets in Keighley like Domino's have offers linked to it.

Plus half the proceeds go to Manorlands.
