Looks like my package has gone up £50 then, £100 last year for car park, £150 this year

You get a free programme which is worth £69 over the season. Plus a replica shirt at circa £40. Strikes me as quite a good thing.

Don't buy a programme, can't get a shirt to fit me, so not so good for me

It's a shame this thread has been turned into a shambles before the end of the page 1, but for anybody who is struggling, here's a simple view I've just thrown together.



Much easier to understand than what the club have put out, thank you

Yep. Although, I still don't think its going to make much difference in getting people through the gates.

The new price categories for 22-24 is a great move.

Well done DRFC, excellent pricing strategy all round.

That's the one that caught my eye. I dare say we lose quite a few fans from 18-24 so anything that helps keep them on board is a positive.

If one person on this board buys a season ticket as a result of me spending 5 minutes in Word making a table then it was worth my time, lol

I'm made up. Paid £325 for a season ticket in league 2 this season next season I'll be paying £219.

You reds xxx

It is needlessly complicated the way they've wrote that post out when the spreadsheet type layout that's been posted on here is far simpler and straight to the point.

Less.

Interesting there's no mention of a direct debit option this season.

I haven't seen anything specifically mentioning students, looks like it's just a general age bracket situation.

Everyone uually wants to pay less for something of course, but could you put a figure on what you think would be appropriate?

Just realised I haven't actually given my opinion on all this while posting the details. I'm really happy they've frozen the prices in general. I'll be renewing next week so will get 5% off, and me and my dad both scored our penalties last year and picked up £50 in club doncaster vouchers, bringing mine down to £235...or just over a tenner a game. Result!

Just done a auick calculation on my package, cat a season ticket plus the dna thing for £150 comes out at just over £22 a game for match ticket, car parking, programme, half time draw ticket and a free shirt that won't fit, plus DNA card entitling you to discounts.

On reflection thats not such a poor deal for me

While I think the prices are a fair price, I don't think it will bring any extra fans in,the price for youngsters thou is a bargain so well done to the club for that

Stole my thunder was going to suggest that.

It's a good idea really, I would go for it if I lived further away but I walk to home games now.

If they had done a gym add on option I would have been on that.  A few more other bundles would've been a cool idea, the club Doncaster membership is just not enough for what I would want.

Think we'll pick up more sth from this though. The important thing is those who don't have one that I know are enthused by it and some will now be getting one.

Agreed I would've liked a very cheap adult price however that market isn't there now the focus on youngsters is a good one probably the best fit.

No mention of STH away game ticket priority format or is there more detail to come? If the sale is to start on 27th they need to get some clarification built in Asap considering what has gone on regard Hartlepool ticketing!!!!!

They've made it far to complicated IMO.



How complicated it is depends on your IQ I suppose.

I can assure you, i'll have a higher IQ than you sunshine.

I bet he can spell the word "too", frosty!

What this also means is a strengthening of revenue streams for the club. The turnover through Club Doncaster will increase and that's good news for us all as it puts us in a stronger trading position when it comes to the playing budget. It's simple when you know who you are, where you prefer to sit/stand and what extras you can take advantage of.

It isn't about affordability, it's whether it is suitably priced to entice more people to purchase, in my opinion it isn't.

We have a stadium which is a third full at best, with 10000 empty seats most weeks. Yes promotion will bring a few back, but not many.

I'd like the club to think outside of the box and develop a strategy to fill some of those empty seats. We are after all experiencing the lowest support we've had for almost 14 years.

It isn't that long ago we had 8000 season ticket holders. I wonder if the club are proactively contacting those who have lapsed to gauge their interest?

No mention if your current seat is saved for any length of time either. You usually get a couple of months to secure the same seat.

I like the look of this.

Yes it could be explained slightly better, and we'd love to be able to give season tickets away virtually like Bradford, but all in all a step in the right direction.

Might consider getting a season ticket for the first time in a few years even though I don't make all the home games.
