    By pure coincidence, I came to this thread straight from reading comments from Swansea fans bemoaning the number of 'lifelong' fans coming out of the woodwork, and how fragile that makes their position.

    For 19 games that works out at £22.05 for the cheaper ones. Not bad but if they are so keen on their away fan reciprocal agreements at £20 (or maybe it was £25?) then that would be £380, with another £50-80 needed to make the season pass viable.

    £300 seems a good target for all clubs to strive for.

    Just for balance Swansea dont have the concessions up to 22 like we do but stop at 16, which is one of the big whines on here about the youth being priced out.
    Never have i felt so disillusioned and distant from City's Trust etc etc

    They do if your a full time student, they're the same prices as the senior citizens, making them cheaper than ours.

    £165 up to 18 for us beats them.
    You've just pointed out they discriminate against the working class who are more likely to be in low paid employment up to 22 than in education. Social engineering from a Trust. Shocking. Never felt so unloved by Citys trust etc etc

    Good in theory. £300 is alright whilst in the PL with all the money which that brings. However if relegated with players still on high contracts it isn't enough as we would bring in less than £6million with the amount of seasontickets we can sell. There would be away fans and walk up fans but those would vary. So we would be looking at an income of less than £10 million. Which sounds a lot but with a squad of 25 players that would equate to £400,000 each if it was all spent on the first team squad. Unfortunately there are other costs and wages to come out of that. Even more so for clubs which own their own stadiums which they have to maintain plus policing, stewarding, all the other staff apart from players...
    Then, as someone said in another thread, if prices were £300 in the PL how could clubs in lower leagues justify charging as much as a PL club, so there would be even less to spend and a bigger gap to make up when they got promoted to the PL making staying there more difficult without spending a fortune with all the risks that entails if relegation follows.

    So all 24 clubs will get parachute payments to top up the £300 or less season tickets proposed in this Utopian vision?

    Yes, you are a caring person, concerned about social engineering and injustice. Except for the people, including the disabled, being evicted from the Airco Arena because a multi million pound organisation headed by a business genius ( have you seen his CV?) has ****ed up and is now telling a pack of lies to try and cover his back.

    I dont mind paying the extra as an adult pass holder in return for a price drop for younger fans.

    I will renew my pass and the juniors 2 passes

    But if the name changes i will never step foot in the stadium until it changes back.

    Dont the club give a disabled persons carer a free pass ?

    If the name changes i would 100% support a new Hull City if one was formed.

    West Ham: Will other Premier League clubs reduce ticket prices?

    Premier League
    Arsenal:
    "We have already announced ticket prices are being frozen for the 2015-16 season and we continue to drive a number of initiatives which provide tens of thousands of tickets priced between £10 and £26 across a season. It is also important to remember our season-ticket package includes 26 matches"

    Aston Villa: No response yet

    Burnley: "No plans as yet but it's a possibility that others might follow suit. You've got to strike a balance between revenue to get a team on the pitch and affordability."

    Chelsea: "We review ticket prices each season."

    Crystal Palace: No response yet

    Everton: No response yet

    Hull: Prices for seniors and adults have
    increased 6% for next season. Plans are not concrete for the following season.

    Leicester: Don't participate in such surveys

    Liverpool: No response yet

    Man City: City already have £299 season tickets. No plans yet for 2016-17 season.

    Man Utd: Unlikely to be a decision until the next financial year - after 30 June.

    Newcastle: Current deals give fans the chance to sign up to long-term season-ticket price-freeze deals.

    QPR: No comment

    Tottenham: No plans to reduce prices ahead of move to new stadium

    Southampton: No plans for the 2016-17 season yet

    Stoke: "Frozen season ticket prices for the last seven years."

    Sunderland: "SAFC reduced the cost of season cards last season - our current prices, are significantly cheaper than those of West Ham. A child under 16 pays just £69 for the entire season (less than £5 a game) and an adult and junior package in our family zone is just £395, with additional children just £25 each for the whole season."

    Swansea: "We announced a drop in season ticket prices in December, so West Ham aren't the first. It was a general £10 drop across the board, although our season tickets are generally one of the cheapest across the board when averaged out. Starting at £419 (adult) and a top price of £489."

    West Brom: No plans for 2016-17 yet - dependent on league status.

    I've seen they have (presumably) paid for advertising boards, the one I saw was down spring bank, to tell people to renew their passes.

    Now is it just me or is that not a waste of money? Surely every pass holder will receive a renewal form/pack with information etc and as nobody else can renew a pass who are they aiming this at?

    Edit - just read that back to myself and realised I've called city 'they' instead of 'we' I think that says a lot about how I feel right now.
