    Adults are £139 and Juniors are £49. Includes games against Manchester United and Liverpool.

    Not bad at all.

    £13.90 per game for Premiership football! Wow.

    Saw a list of average season ticket prices at the start of the season

    And Blackburn's were one of the cheapest. Think there was a league 2 club with higher ST prices, (Gillingham I think).

    But then again is it such a bargain if they're likely to lose the majority of their games and get relegated?

    Proper bargain. It's no wonder kids want to support premiership sides when it's cheaper for parents to take them to watch them.

    It's a lot easier to subsidise cheap season tickets when you're getting £35m TV money.

    Great prices, but is it working? Blackburn have been offering cheap tickets for a while now, but I can't say I've noticed whether they're overwhelmed with demand?

    Honestly don't know, so this isn't a post trying to prove a point one way or t'other
