The best value season ticket in the league (that I know of). Same price all year round.
I was going to say the same, thats madness. What is the price into a single game at Sligo during the season? Must be 15 is it?Quote:

Bit harsh. If you miss 4 games, you've still saved a tenner. If you go every week you've got four free games and a tennerQuote:

Ya. Could be wrong but isint there a chance you could play 17 home games. On the early bird that means you could possiblly get 3 and half games for free and save 55 euro. Fair price imo. Being entertained is a huge part of going to football matches and is definetly a factor when buying season tickets?
My mistake yes, 16 or 17 home games I believe. Still, not sure about it.
Any first division clubs have early bird prices or is it too risky considering we don't really know how many teams will be in it for definite
Limerick had them last year and had to give out 20 quid vouchers when it was reduced to 11 teams
The most important thing about season tickets is that your helping you club. If you were breaking even on a ST Id say there are plenty who would but them anyway. Granted a saving is a saving but it's secondary imo.Quote:

In the long run, clubs offering value for money to supporters is a good thign. it might mean €50 less per season ticket, but if they sell more, and people feel like they're getting value/savings, then it'll come back to the club in one way or another

No problem with Sligo doing this of course, but in the long run, cheaper season tickets are the way to go. And considering Sligos are only early bird prices, I'd hate to think what the full price would be. Early bird price of 150 would have been much more sufficient.
Not trying to be an ass about it, I just think it's asking too much of the fans when money is tight for everyone at the minute.
But I'd argue that 200 for a season ticket is vakue for money. The gate price for 18 home games is €270 so thats a pretty big saving.
Whether the non 'early bird' price is value or not remains to be seen.
The full priced tickets won't be much different. maybe €240,50.
Things that bad in Richmond? :smirk:Quote:

Saving 40 euro on Early bird tickets...just not that much for me.
Meh, it all goes towards Cookie's fag factory in Tallaght so i don't really mind.
I'd be happy with 2 free games and a tenner think that's fair enoughQuote:

What's season ticket for Harps? Too, easy to state you probably couldn't give them away in Ballybofey.Quote:

It's called consumer choice, the vagaries of capitalism -- what the market will bear, and that many are happy to invest in their club.
The players are professional, hence they must be paid.
If we could get a few million off FAI to build a pavillon/stand then the club wouldn't need to raise money - if the club wanted to sell off its grounds to support crazy Quixotic plans, then they could give away season tickets free.
Otherwise, pay your money and take your chances!
edit: point already made
Its not an early bird price but GUFC season tickets are selling at E99.Quote:
