The Tigers make the trip to Leicester City next month and tickets for this important Barclays Premier League fixture will go on sale to Season Card holders at 9am next Wednesday. Steve Bruce’s side visit the King Power Stadium on Saturday 14th March (KO 3pm) with tickets priced as follows: £35 Adults £31 Seniors (65+) and Under 22s £22 Under 18s £9 Under 12s £7 Under 8s Tickets will be available to buy in person from the KC Stadium Ticket Office and by calling 01482 505600. Any remaining tickets will go on general sale from 9am on Wednesday 25th February. Tiger Travel will be running coaches to this game, departing from the KC Stadium South Stand car park at 10.45am. Seats are priced £18 per person. Robbing bastards, we only charged £16 to them didn't we?
That's why the Twenty's Plenty campaign has so much support, it's ridiculous that the bottom of the league club is charging us more than double what we charged them.
It's a ****ing outrage, I hope we all boycott the game as a protest against the pricing. Stoke away is cheaper! Stoke City v Hull City - Barclays Premier League - Saturday 28th February - KO 3pm Tickets are now on general sale and available to buy online, in person from the KC Stadium Ticket Office and by calling 01482 505600. Prices: £25 Adults, £19 Seniors (over 65), £15 Under 17s, £12 Under 11s.
I heard them on R4 yesterday saying if every Premier League club committed to charging £20 for every single away ticket that would take up only 3% of the increased revenue clubs will receive from the new TV deal. They'd still have 97% to piss away how they see fit. It'll never happen, but it really ****ing should.
To be fair only Newcastle offer a cheaper ticket than our £16 one so we shouldn't expect this fixture to be as cheap as it was for them. Saying that £35 is a bit steep. I suppose its just a case of making as much money as they can before the go down.
In all honesty, it shouldn't just be away tickets. Home tickets should be capped as well, as £35 to see Hull City against Aston Villa was beyond a joke, no wonder we only got approx 21,400, that's probably why it wasn't announced. (Unless my ears deceived me?)
We don't announce attendances at any games now and rightly so, it just gets us mocked by the opposition fans.
why should he announce the attendance mid way through the second half? Its smacks of small club mentality and gives the away fans a reason to laugh at us. The KC should be sold out for every Premier League game and the club should be doing al they can to ensure it is. I'm afraid charging £35, paid in advance, for a Tuesday night match is not the answer.
You're both right, I remember now that a few months back everyone was kicking off about Leicester being a category B game, because we have a "rivalry".
I've lost track again now, what have been/will be our Cat C games? Palace, QPR, Swansea, Burnley, West Ham and West Brom? I'm sure there were supposed to be at least 7 and I'm nervous we make Burnley £35 because that's what they charged us.
