Yeovil at home on TV

[watto-drfc]

Tickets for Town's trip to Doncaster on Friday 22nd November are now on sale from Huish Park.


Tickets are prices as follows:

Adults - £23
Senior (60+) - £17
Young Person (17-20) - £13
Junior (12-16) - £8
11 and under - £5

This is taken from the official Yeovil website, i can't believe we are charging top wack for a game against a team that will bring no fans due to TV coverage. This WILL be our lowest gate of the season.............look really good on TV. look at the example that Middlesboro have set with prices at £12 for TV Game...............Thoughts anyone

Like a broken record and aside from your main thrust I know but ...


... once again I want to point out that a Yeovil Town Supporter aged 62 will get into KMS for £17 - because we start the Concession for Seniors at 60+ whereas when a Rovers fan visits Huish Park they will have to pay full whack as YTFC Concessions start at 65+

I feel fortunate that Rovers start at 60+ cos than makes my ST a lot less than it would be - but as is pointed out often on here Clubs are not allowed to discriminate and charge away fans more for similar seating than the home fans - but this anomaly is allowed !

i just think that £23 for a game on TV will only attract season ticket holders, surely we could have priced tickets at £15 & £5

[Donnywolf]

I am with you in that I suspect it will be a very low gate - probably worst of Season

On the economics I am not sure whether the payment received for the televising of the Game will compensate for the drop in attendance - but suspect it does

im sure there will be some form of deal on for home support and im guessing if it had been on a saturday there would still have been little away support

From SM's update:

We also planning some promotions based around the Brighton and Yeovil games. Details to follow.

Looks like some kind of BOGOF then!

A celebration of our conference days with conference prices would be good.

Purple voucher book is what you need

These tickets are on sale now so the people that have already bought a ticket will miss out on any promotion.
It doesn't affect me as I have a season ticket but if we are to do promotions and I am all for them if it brings a bigger crowd, then we must advertise them earlier.

On another note the advertising boards outside the Keepmoat still have the Leicester game on them. Really simple stuff.

surely we have not sent them tickets yet as its a month and 10 days away, thought away tickets are not sent till around 3 weeks from fixture. so there is still time to re think pricing.

would make sense to lower prices, there will be more than expected home fans & more yeovil fans likely to travel ( how many of us are thinking of going middlesbrough now due to ticket prices)

i have a season ticket so it doesn't affect me directly but im sure the club would want more bums on seats infront of sky. board were quick to slag attendance for bournemouth game so something needs to be done to stop this being a 5k game.
