Bought the Ilves ticket in the end. They have a bar this year! And you can watch the game from there, right next to the pitch! Money well spent. hic.

He was fucking ace on Champo.

I know that phrase gets used too often on here, but it's no less true.

It normally gets used by someone else if I can't go though and this season's Cup games and the allocation I get as an ST holder has helped to make it worthwhile. I also absolutely love the view from my seat but I (probably) only have one more season of that.

i went to 3 games at ninian last season (what a fan). 1 time harrys tic and the other 2 next to harry as our mutual mate couldn't make it. awesome seats. right next to directors box. able to heckle david jones daughters boyfriend

have a 199 tic same as PBF for next season, probably do a few more games next year. 6 i think. bought it early to ensure wembley tics

100% cardiff city me

first had a ST 1982-83 season. 30 quid i think. had that until 87.

started getting one again in 2001. never see enough games to make it econoically viable. 200 quid isnt a great deal of money to see the games you want, free entry into away travel club (although i never go) but good to say 'cardiff city ST holder' in football discussions

I ended up in those seats (to the left of the box) for Cwmbran v Celtic years ago. They are a great view. I was next to the mayoress of Cwmbran, who appeared to hate football, football fans, singing, people, and everything else that you find in a football ground.

Indeed. Thankfully we're rid of him now.

Thanks guys some useful information there. I'll get my team of top-notch analysts on to it now.

So it looks like almost everyone pays by credit card. It does kind of make it easier for clubs to put prices up.

But then again if the credit dries up, they are in for a hammering.

Colchester United - relegated from the Championship with barely a whimper last year - have announced rises of 60%.

Admittedly they have just built a new stadium (with no access road but that's another Council success story) but the cheapest adult season ticket if purchased after 1/6/08 is £460 - the most expensive is £598. And they boast that it's ONLY FROM £20 per game to watch a bunch of clowns who wouldn't stand out in a park on a Sunday morning.

No doubt the novelty of the new stadium will attract early interest but at those prices it will soon be followed by empty stadium and successive relegation. The board/council deserve it

I forgot to mention that season ticket holders get free coffee and cake at halt time during FC Haka games. Great value for money, but it might have something to do with their financial troubles.
