More chance of a meteorite landing on your head.
I will be renewing my pass. I am worried I have masochistic tendences.

To be fair, it looks like one already has!

The VAT rise shouldn't affect season passes as they will be sold before January, I agree, the match day price really can't go up much further, not unless we spend some money in a fairly evident way.
The club making a profit is positive, but they cannot be seen to be making excessive profits with no success on the field.

Been saying it for years, we are not a £23 a game club
Maybe they should do a 3 year pass, or do an offer like the Bulls (15,000 fans though)

Maybe we aren't a £23 or £24 club but as people pay it the club will keep charging it.

I agree, woulden't be surprised to see up to 1,000 less to be honest.
very little hype due to deflation of the derby defeat and lack of big name signings, and some drab rugby in the last 3 years.
I'll be honest and say the only reason I will renew is so that I don't lose my good East stand seats, if I was unreserved or sitting in the less populated West Stand I'd be picking and choosing games next season.
the club should also look at reducing its prices for the less high-profile games. Are they allowed to categories games like football clubs do? I.e have half the home games as a 'A games' at full price and the other half 'B games' at a reduced rate. Games against Quins, Salford, Crusaders, Catalan etc with no away fans and atmosphere simply aren't worth £23...they could get away with it when we were 'CC winners, grand finalists' but not now.

| Where's the tipping point in the price of a pass though? Would £10/15 either way make that much difference? If match day prices are reduced for lesser games that will devalue the season pass and make it more likley that people will not buy one and pick and choose their games.

I think in general our season pass prices and pay on the door prices need to be reduced. Obviously it's driven primarily by our overheads but i think the club should definately look at giving something back this year rather than continually exploiting fans.
£20 is the max i'd look to charge on the gate rather than £23 or £24.
If that means i get a season pass for £160 instead of £180 for example that works. (not that i'm getting a pass)

Disagree. We've paid IIRC £520 for 2 adults and 2 children passes which entitled us to 28 adult attendances and 54 kids entrances (home and away). Overall that's £6 per game per person. Just looking at the adults tickets on their own, I personally don't think that £15.71 a game is too bad for a reserved seat in a great stadium, plus the normal passholder benefits of shirt discount, BBQ, first dibs on play-off tickets etc.

| For comparison here's Wigan's 2011 price list
they have raised the prices but still cheaper than us, despite finishing first in the regular season, and the KC and DW being of comparable standards.
we are getting ripped off.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...: |

We don't have a wealthy backer. They do. They're also not making a profit. Plus the KC is a better stadium, and who knows how the running costs compare. So I'm not sure that 'ripped off' is justified.
That said, prices can't afford to go up IMO. Times are hard. A small reduction would be a nice gesture but I ain't gonna hold my breath.
