    Obviously you have a different opinion to Rahic & Stefan with regards our City. I'd suggest you get out more places like Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle, Liverpool, even Halifax have better town centers than Bradford.
    You read the reasons they bought the club and told us of how they wanted to go forward, now with Rahic doing what he did and Stefan stepping up to the plate finacially he might change his opinion who knows.
    You say cheap season tickets are becoming ineffective, the sales of season tickets very much depends on the previous seasons football/league position, if fans believe the comming season will be better they will buy, so its not ineffective because of cost but ineffective because of the product on show.

    I absolutely would not have increased prices - on the back of this season and an almost certain relegation back to the khazi league that would have been financial suicide. they're not exactly selling like hot cakes as it is at £150 - we'd have 3 figure crowds if they jacked the prices up!

    league 2 isn't worth anymore than £150. you could argue if we end up putting out the majority of this seasons team because we can't get rid of them it's worth even less!

    I wouldn't have renewed had they gone up. it took some thinking about the current pricing structure after this year!

    Many others see volumes of people earning the NMW and struggling to live comfortably. Not many of the more affluent are City supporters, if indeed football.

    Bought three today, plus 2 Scunny tickets. A steady influx of people, probably a couple at the window at any time, think we will be hitting 10000.

    I’m convinced we will sell at least 10k I personally know 25/30 people who go and no one is not renewing. Think around the 11k mark inc flexi’s, maybe not by cut off date but it will be extended I guess

    Probably the dumbest post in a while.

    Bradford is arguably the poorest City in England.

    Our average wages are the lowest in the UK for starters.

    Apart from Worthing, Barnsley, Norwich, Doncaster, Wigan, Birkenhead, Huddersfield and Southend. Source=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-43729508

    And most of those, with lower wages, have football league teams with much higher season ticket prices. Southend United's early bird adult season ticket price for 2019/20 is £395, stunningly high for the place with the lowest average wage.

    I think once the anger of this season has died down then a fair few will change their mind. Unfortunately the cut off date for season tickets doesn’t take this into account. Any where near 9,000 to 10,000 season ticket sales will be a decent figure for a club that historically has been a poorly supported club due to the clubs generally poor playing history. People don’t follow failure.

    I was referring to Cities, as per the original statement by Fordy. But granted, there may be one or two Cities below us. However, that does not mean we're not a poor City.

    2 flexi tickets bought today, plus my ST a few weeks back. Fingers crossed now for seat swap day, try get them moved together in a decent spot.

    EXTENDED OPENING HOURS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

    Sunday (April 7) - 10.00am - 3.00pm

    Thursday (April 11) - 9.00am - 7.00pm

    Friday (April 12) - 9.00am - 7.00pm

    Saturday (April 13) - 9.00am - 5.00pm

    Sunday (April 14 - ‘Our City’ Season Ticket Deadline Day) - 9.00am - 5.00pm

    I'd be very surprised if this deadline wasn't extended.

    City are shooting themselves in the foot if they don't.

    If people aren't willing to take it up at £150, what's the chances of getting loads of people in at £225.

    Logic and common sense would suggest keeping it at £150 through to the end of July to try and get as big an uptake as possible for what is a very unappealing return to League Two.
