    I've voted (I think ~ no feedback to say it worked) for the 'principal of change' even though it looks like Hobitallams choice ...

    Well the ****s have managed to shaft the supporters again. Which ever way you vote you lose and they win, even abstaining gives them a victory. The wasting time over details is pointless, Oh an adult with one child this age and another that age can save this much if they move zone blah blah blah.

    The whole point is the principle of concessions not individual cases, there should be a full adult price and reduced prices for OAP's and kids simple as all the other clubs have.

    Al, I'm afraid the only answer I give you is, I can't vote either way. It's like trying to make my mind up on who vote for our next ruling party.

    Adolf Hitler, Kim Jong un, or Donald Trump????

    There's no option at all in this.

    I continue to boycott. It's all I have.

    No point Chazz. Too many variables. I would need to look at u14, 15-17,18-65,65+, born in leap year and variations thereof. Since they've burned too many bridges for my liking (even before they removed concessions), I have no vested interest as I won't be getting a pass or a matchday ticket until they've gone.

    That is exactly what was mentioned on radio 5 at lunchtime. Youngsters are priced out resulting in crap atmosphere at all league grounds. Mind you they forgot to mention the Manchester hunter fans who travel from the stockbroker belt.

    If I get to own the club the family stand can go back to west upper and I will make the South stand under 18's only and you get in free with a flag and a flare. That should make the north standers up their game :emoticon-0178-rock:

    When I first looked at the proposal, I was quite surprised. Couldn't 'believe them allowing members from last 3 years a vote. As many who have left are pissed off with the concessionaries, this seems to be a bit of an own goal?
    Even looking at the new process, concessionaries for under 14's are 1/3 to a half of adult price. I was quite encouraged. When I first started compiling this post, I intended to bullet point pros and cons. However I suspected the devil was in the detail. And so it proved, couldn't find any further positives (in terms of the 'spirit' of concessions', encouraging youngsters and protecting the future of our club)
    • the ridiculous restriction that can only have 1 under 14 with one full paying adult
    • 15-17's have a substantial hike
    • 17-22 are now treated as adults (so even more substantial)
    • Oh under 10's at are now paying 3x as much
    • Some adults per game has gone up (Zone 1 no rise)
    • All adult memberships have risen. Fair enough, most would accept this, but not a great 'loyalty scheme' when those paying on the day can

    Ehab said in October that there was no chance of us returning to a concession model while he remained in charge at the KCOM. If he loses this vote, then he’s been beaten on the reintroduction of concessions and I’ll take that, even if the terms aren’t currently ideal.

    Some of the adult memberships go down in the concessions model, don’t they? - today’s Zone 3.

    I know Wolves, like the rest of the clubs in the EFL aren't as well run as ourselves but why not introduce proper concessions like they have?

    Prices for the City game at Wolves-

    Adults £25-30
    65+ and under 21* £15
    Under 17 £12
    Under 12 £5

    * for members of RaisedByWolves. Members of this can have 2 adults and 2 under 17s in the lower tier of the Steve Bull Stand for £40.
