    We have discussed that till we are blue in the face on other threads, it isn't going to change.
    Bradford City Football club is not immune from the increases of life .Inflation rise, is a standstill , below is a regression in available income.
    If i was Rupp , i would have tried to get the stadium back in house, rent savings approaching half a million a year, he has been here over 7 years £3.5 million, if he had then charged club said rent, he would probably have his money back and own the club and stadium, thus having something better to sell, or reduce rent and improve playing squad to maybe get us up the football pyramid. I am not him and he does not want to put his hand in his pocket, so us the customers have to make up the difference.
    Cheap tickets, we pay what the club have asked, well they are now asking for a bit more, just like every one and thing in society
    Less than £12.50 for a person with 2 kids to attend a game is still great value in anyone's world.

    I love this phrase ..

    "we are able to continue efficiently managing club finances and maintain a self-sustaining yet ambitious playing budget",

    It's meaningless. Go on then Ryan, tell us how much the 'ambitious' playing budget has been over the last 4 four years and what you estimate it to be for next season. The overhead costs etc of the club are not unimportant but how much the policing costs are matters very little to me. What's far more important is how much you intend putting into the 'ambitious' playing budget compared to what you've done recently. That has far more impact on what might happen on the pitch than how much the club has to pay for its police officers or its stewards or its leccie bill. And what might happen on the pitch has more impact on whether fans renew or not compared with how long the floodlights are on for.

    I think you’re being generous saying there was 10,000 there!

    If the season tickets does fall then Sparks must take the blame. And with any luck the clowns running the show will stop signing players that simply too old and or just shite.

    Then pay more at the turnstile to help the club cover its costs, which have increased way above what ticket price increases have done.
    Minimum wage is going up in April 9.8% to £11.44 , my trained staff , who i gave a 6 % rise ,are asking for more , to maintain the status quo. That can only happen if i pass it on to my customers, reduce profitability or take it from the product with inferior quality goods.
    Its a balancing act for all in business, be that Bradford City or me with my 5 employees.

    Just looked back at last year and it was the same. No mention in the main article. It was on the FAQ, which was added later, so I'm guessing it will be on there when that is added later again.

    Personally I think it’s about time the loyalty to the 25 yearers comes to an end now. Controversial opinion for some and I get that, but Richmonds offer was several regimes and a couple of administrations ago, not to mention the kerfuffle it causes every season

    Cheap Season Tickets we’re introduced in 2007. At that time the price was £138. The Bank of England Inflation Calculator gives a ‘like for like’ comparison.
    So the increase takes the price above the 2007 introduction. However it is about £25 (the inflation calculator is several weeks out of date) above the price in 2007.
    Personally the price will not deter me from renewing, as £11 a match is in my opinion a good deal.
    The product on the pitch is more likely to affect my choice, but then again this is my club and as long as l am able to go, l plan to do so.

    To be fair when you put it like that, it doesn’t sound overly bad

    did not realise it was 2007 . 17 years of cheap tickets, wow.
    it would be great to have a crystal ball and see if this has helped or hindered the club over the years
