Trojan76 Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 The problem is if ticket is still cheaper and does include old firm games take will abuse it. I sit near the family area and there are quite a few adults sitting there or with a mate. And if you and your mate can get in for £250 instead of £600 then you can see why some do. Problem is, there is no way of checking if the adults coming in are accompanied by a child. Yes, keep the family ticket cheaper, but have stricter controls on them being used, especially if old firm games are to be included 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangodog Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Rather than just posting on here has anybody approached the SLO regarding getting OF games on the family ticket ? We have the means to raise this and a marketing manager who could publicise it why not use them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trojan76 Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I would up ticket price for families including Of games to 425, adults still paying reduced price and kids free. Option should be there for ticket without OF games at 325 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being the case, the ticket price would have to be a good bit dearer than is now. This option is for families, not just general for all season tickets, and helps maintain an excellent value for money ticket, but the increase to accomodate OF games MAY put off some of the family ticket holders 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Reilly Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 How do you price in specific games when you've no idea how many there will be? Some are saying tge family ticket should increase to cover OF games which I agree with but how many do you price in? At the start of the season you don't know where you'll be post split and consequently it's possible to only get them once each at home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't all clubs get three pre-split OF matches (provided they are both in the Premiership, of course)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have phrased that last sentence badly but we are always going to play one of them at home twice before the split, this season it is Celtic. If we want to include OF games in the family ticket it would just be a set amount more than at present and you take pot luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygod Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 The most you could be disadvantaged would be one match and the pricing would probably be weighted in favour of the purchaser not receiving that extra post-split match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
