They will be taking the same amount of money from fans irrespective of ticket prices, albeit mostly indirectly. Low ticket prices have a lot going for them but I think there should be a premium for season tickets. Otherwise you get the situation where they don't become available because it is better for 'fans' to keep them and sell off individual matches even if they never plan on going.

The equitable response ...

For an ST you have paid for 19 PL games at effectively X per game.
Suppose that the match day price of the game you will not be attending is Y, where Y > X.

You return the seat back to the club, who refund you the X.
They sell the ticket to a supporter for Y.

No profiteering by the club or ST holder, no overpaying by that supporter.

Indeed but since Y>X there is no way to enforce that. They could check who is using the ticket and if it is not used by the registered owner at least 75% of the time they should lose the right to repurchase.

Perhaps you could give the ST holder some "Brownie points" on
ST renewal for such altruistic acts.

On the "75%" thing, I suspect that data analytics on the ST demographic
(age, locale to WHL etc) would come up with more equitable numbers.

For example, I would not want to be harsh on an 80-something ST holder
whose health etc may prevent them from attending, even though they
bought the ST with the honest intent of attending all games.

Of course not. But I suspect what actually happens is that a lot of grandchildren of eighty year olds effectively inherit the ticket which isn't fair on those on the waiting list.
 
We have won 2 domestic trophies this month, how many trophies have Spurs won in the last 30 years

Thanks for proving my point. After all, do Sheikh Mansour Team fans descend upon the Man Utd board every time they buy a trophy?

...okay, bad example, as those are the two deadest boards on here
