    You know what, if the club approached me and said we can't afford it, will you give it up i would happily do so, but I object strongly to being told we are a drain on the club when over the last 20 years we've actually paid a lot more for our football than a standard season ticket holder.

    No I wouldn’t not again . Whilst I realise it’s not the clubs fault any of this am still not having any more money down on season tickets until I am guaranteed to go . The clubs not a charity it’s run by a millionaire . He can pay for it this time. Am not having £275 (2013 ST) down again for nothing .

    Religious extremists of all persuasions are a menace to the world. Some of the evangelical Christians that support Trump are every bit as loopy as this, not to mention the hard-line Orthodox Jewish Zionists who are so influential in Israel. They all believe unscientific nonsense theories based on blind faith and extreme interpretations of their holy books which they then use to persecute and discriminate against those they don't agree with. I don't care if they're Muslim, Christian, Jewish or Sun worshippers. A plague on all their houses.

    The 25 year millstone as you call it is a difference of just £25 to the club. We get access to the suite after paying £125 but its no detriment to the club finances.

    With us not being allowed to see the games live this season a big increase doesn’t make sense particularly with transfer cap. Give the loyal fans who bought one this season a good deal

    Fair play to all those who did.

    I guess I did my bit the previous 50 odd years I bought a season ticket and raised money for the club during dark days of administrations etc

    Increasing prices for anyone next season would be suicidal madness by the club.

    I will be buying one this summer as I reckon we will at least see some part of next season, hopefully a big chunk of it. However because of the uncertainty still, it would not be the right time to increase the prices.

    I bought a couple this season due to helping keep money coming in but I'll only buy again if there is a guarantee of spectators being allowed in the grounds. Not paying to sit at home and watch football, it's shite.

    I paid £125 instead of £150 for my season ticket so it’s hardly costing the club a fortune isn’t it?

    Hardly a millstone is it ? It cost the club £25,000 a season (and reduces every year as a small percentage die) which is a small price to pay to those of us who stuck our necks out to support the club and lost £2,250.

    The bigger millstone is the cheap overall price, which I would be happy to pay, but the discount to the most loyal of supporters must remain.

    Yes, we all know that's true in a strictly legal/commercial sense. But Bradford City is still Bradford City - playing in the same ground, in the same colours, watched by the same fan base. You can't celebrate the historic achievements of the club on the one hand and then say it's a different entity on the other.
    As others have said, the 25 year tickets now cost the club only £25 discount per fan per season. It's trivial in the scheme of things - nothing like the big 'drain' that some like to portray it as.
    As far as I'm concerned, I'm paying £225 per season for my ST - ie £125 plus the £100 per season I've already paid out in the initial lump sum. It would be a massive kick in the teeth to loyal supporters to end the scheme five years early. I think the club know that and won't do it.

    The 25% capacity is only until 21st June. If all goes to plan, we'll be back to full capacity next season.

    Wouldn't give a flying feck. I could be one of the 7m that die globally from air pollution.

    I'll take my chances.

    This is just plain wrong.

    It is the UK government's intention to offer the vaccine to everyone over 16.

    At the moment there are NINE priority groups. Once we have worked through a significant proportion of those nine priority groups, then a decision will be made on the prioritisation of the rest, i.e. the under 50s.

    We're in the middle of a pandemic and people have far greater priorities at this time. Its not that i don't agree with your idea, in the long term the club does need to look at its pricing structure but certainly not at this time and not while we're in league 2. Its something the club should have done whilst on the crest of a wave it was on about 3 to 4 years ago.

    Again Fair Play. However although I love memories, I also enjoy the here and now. For the club to carry on and go forward, we need as many people on board. I hope you will return for next season. :thumbup:

    I'd agree to pay £250 for just an away Ifollow pass, and it might be something worth thinking about.
    No one knows how long social distancing will remain in place even after the vacine roll out, therefore there is a possibility stadiums may be only available to home fans next season, in which case an away ifollow pass could be a solution.
    priced at £250 would represent good value to anyone who regularly forks out the best part of £100 for an away trip.
