Things that bad in Richmond? :smirk:

But you're not going to get 18 home league games. Probably 16 or 17. At 17 games that 255. 16 games 240.
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 enough

Whether the non 'early bird' price is value or not remains to be seen.

there wont be 18 home games next season. there will be 16

Sigh. IN fairness, despite reading it twice above, I still forgot about the league changing

Grrrrr.....

I take back everything, Sligo are the biggest rip off merchants since the last boggest rip off mrchants

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

Seriously, you have some neck. Coming from a club, that begs all and sundry to keep afloat, gets freebie dollars to undertake 'Field of Dreams' stuff and whinging at others setting a price structure to suit the club's needs.

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

Limerick had them last year and had to give out 20 quid vouchers when it was reduced to 11 teams

Its not an early bird price but GUFC season tickets are selling at E99.

Dont think were defensive, just trying to say that were happy to pay the prices and that we believe them to be fair.

1 million

Shels:

Adult €200
Student €120
OAP €90
U-14 €90

20% discount if purchased before 20th Dec.
