| Ticket prices going up well over inflation yet again, and some fools welcome it. Should mean another £1 at least added to the POTD price.
The club will continue to lose money with this sort of governance, and the ghettoisation of the last decade continues apace. Cowdrey has always been a fan of charging as much as the club can get away with, and I would imagine that has been music to Brent's reluctant ears.
Much reduced playing budget next season by all accounts, yet much increased prices. Maybe Mastpoint et al are insisting on a bit more payment upfront. they're in the driving seat. Jimmy boy and his reign are going to be mighty unpopular soon if Sheridan doesn't work a miracle. |

| Cowdrey will have no say in the setting of ticket price. |

| Obviously not Damon. But the general chit chat will have a bearing on what the football naive chairman will think is good football business. And history has shown throughout his career what a great businessman Jimmy is. 50 billion, 2 companies, and counting. It's also the sort of "tough love" approach to everything that Jones spouts. |

Might seem that way but isn't. Only 5 home games left and many other clubs put their offers out in Feb this year. |

| I think it is still the earliest Argyle have ever done this, historically, which reflects our current cash flow crisis and the need for Wrathall wonga. |

| I can only compare this to Derby County's early release as that's where I live now and the easiest information for me to access but the prices even as an early bird do seem quite expensive. Argyle are in at £320 for next year and Derby at £285 for adult tickets, yes that is in one of the lesser Pride Park seats but that is still cheaper however you look at it. Also if they do get promoted to the PL and you have bought your ticket by a certain time you get 50% of the price back! and also with kids tickets if you buy one with an adult ST it will cost you £25 upto 12 years old as opposed to £77 for Argyle.
Yes I know the clubs are in different places and a ticket to Derby is no good to an Argyle fan but those prices alongside constant free tickets for school do help to get Pride Park (or the iPro as it now called for £10 million over 7 years) full.
They also have the demand based ticket pricing up here but I guess that just wouldn't work in Plymouth.....
Anyway just my opinion |

Indeed. They have a history and the people 'believe' it can be repeated.The club has spent all but 4 seasons in the top two tiers and have reached a European Cup semi final. It's the same at Norwich, Southampton and many others. That's the essential difference. |

| Feck me, £240 for an eighteen year old. Most people that age are still in education. I am ok this season but at those prices a major rethink will required next season. |

| Should be ten pounds if you show your student union card, it doesn't take long for people to lose the habit of going to football. |

| Should be £12 rocking up on the day, if you show your membership of the human race card. If Germany can do it, so can this bunch of mill owners and bankers. You're right Iggy, football is a habit, and even long term fans drop off when they're abused. Far more things under the sun and a darn sight cheaper. Two thirds of Argyle's gate are concessions. |

"if you show your membership of the human race card" Guess you Gargs would be ok as long as you all kept your shoes on and wore mittens. Again you boys are frothing away when you have got next to fook all to moan about. The mighty ECFC have put up the ST prices, particularly for kids, when a double ST holder of 40 years plus sent his application back with a covering letter explaining why he wasn't renewing, we're shiite, we might be in the Conference, we're shiite, the prices have gone up despite us not having won a home game since the real shiite were in town, we're shiite, etc, etc, the reply in justification pointed out that we were in fact just "12 POINTS OFF THE PLAY OFFS". You think you got problems? |
