Just had a quick look at Ipswich and the dearest seems to be £654

I thought they had a notoriously dear price nearing the 1k mark. Remember seeing a graph with highest prices some while back

Interesting though, didn't Burnley do a deal last year where you essentially put a down payment on next year's pass by paying more at the time. Wonder how many took up on that offer and if they have it's probably going to give them good gates

Only if they shaft us for £40 a ticket as well, you have to charge the away fans the same as the home fans.

Looking at their pricing

It ranges quite dearly, so I can imagine they'll justify charging X amount by saying 'Well Leeds fans could potentially pay X amount by sitting in this part of the stadium'
 
I see Cardiff as a similar set up to us (similar size, ex-prem, T**t of an owner etc.)

They have actually increased their ticket prices for the first time in 5 years – Their adult price for the stand behind the goal is now £345 compared to our North Stand adult price of £545

Charlton and Blackpool still start their adult season ticket prices at under £200.
 
The cup ticket thing could be good, but it's obviously to make up for the fact that those renewing before the deadline havent got the discount they were told they'd get. Isn't that illegal by the way?

The price increase still stands after relegation which is just incredible.

£200 or 58% more expensive and we've got an extra year of parachute payments to look forward to. And Hull is a very financially challenged city.

What a massive ****er.

You could make an argument, but because no official announcement came out and it was just correspondent emails people had with the club saying there could be a reduction I don't think it would get far

Doesn't say home cup matches "this season" so I assume it's open ended until we actually have 3. I'm happy with that. My pass is approximately £4.86 a game cheaper now we are in the Championship and I get 3 free cup games. Thank you City.

The only slight negative is I take a young lad who won't be able to go to League Cup games on a weeknight but his pass is dirt cheap anyway.

You are easily pleased , it's far too expensive for championship football

I'm talking about people buying before the 23rd in order to get a discount they explicitly advertised on their website. It turns out the advertised 'after sale price' wasn't true. Isn't that a ridiculously clearcut case of what supermarkets occasionally get in trouble for?

QPR have not increased prices for this season, the prices range seems to be from £389 to £719 for an adult pass.

They've cut there's by over £100, getting them down to the level they were at the last time they were in the Championship and the £719 is for a Platinum Membership, if not renewed by the renewal date(it's £599 if renewed by the due date).

They haven't actually breached anything, people who renewed are paying exactly what they were told they would pay, people who renewed later were told they'd have to pay more, but those who've already renewed haven't lost anything.

I suppose you're right. If I remember the advertising said something along the lines of 'dependent on premier league status' or to that extent. Fact is because it's so annoyingly vague and no explicitly said its tricky. But yes, you could probably take them to court

The reduction will be free cup tickets, so they haven't said or done anything wrong

But PLT does have a point, misrepresentation is basically similar to what is going on. It all comes down to how the customer interpreted it. Not saying the club have done anything wrong just saying you could make an argument

You really couldn't, people are not only still being charged the advertised prices, but they're now getting three games free on top, there is no case.
