    £170.00!!!

    There having a laugh! Before this season ive had a ST for 5 years. I couldnt cope with any more crap so i didnt get one this season. Ive still followed the reds and it looks like we may be able to push for a playoff spot so I decided to get a halfway season ticket. But at 170 quid!!!! No thanks. If I remember right the FUll season was about 250???

    If it was HALF price for the rest of the season IE the other HALF that would be fine.

    There's 12 games incl in the half season ticket

    ...and 11 games prior to it becoming valid, so don't expect a 50% discount.</p>

    Still it sounds a little pricey. I suppose they give you less of a match-by-match discount since you haven't committed to a full season. Doesn't make sense imho tho if you want to increase crowds with the aim of pushing for the playoffs.</p>

    If you do get one tho and we do get to the playoff final it will make getting tickets easier, I suppose.</p>

    My ticket was £325 quid

    2 x 170 = 340.</p>

    That's not unreasonable. Works out at about 14 per game, compared to 20 or 22.</p>

    I guess yours wasn't in the Ponty then

    Half season tickets for East Stand Upper are £190, East Stand Lower £180.

    No, but then..

    .. there was no indication as to what part of the stadium the ST was required for.
