Charging more for an inferior product usually shuts the shop, and yes I am on OAP and yes I can afford the new inflated price but will I be there as often as before, I doubt it. Sorry Carl you got this one wrong.

To be fair we probably have more free loading English people than any other ethnicity. The likes of Rupert Murdoch (who changes his nationality to get his own way in some countries) has never paid any tax, like many of the wealthy English people who can afford clever accountants.

Lets not bring racism into the club's inability to get the pricing structure right.

are long term and the future, as for a poorer product, I've watched some cracking games in the lower reaches of the amateur game, why ! because the ability of both teams are equal.

Very old saying, pay peanuts you get peanuts, how will the club be able to move onwards and upwards if the loyals only want to pay peanuts.


How many home games does a season ticket cover ?

The three main factors they never had in 1950 are possibly.

1, people are living longer resulting in more pension money being issued across the board.

2, The jewels (Gas & Electricity) in the crown where sold off by the conservatives.

3, We now have far more immigrates living in the UK claiming benefits.

We people like you I would just pull the plug on the club, what a whinging tw@ - have 1 less beer for Gods sake and allow the club to grow.

My mother and father are in a far worst group, the ones who's company pension take them just over the limit, this results in them having to pay full council rent, full TV Licence, Dental bills etc, do they whinge NO they just get on with it.

I suppose the season ticket price (adult) awards the faithful.

YOU need to keep off the drink with your late night insults...why you are hardly coherent.
Have you re-read any of your recent posts?
You have nothing to contribute whatsoever apart from insults and when challenged to quantify any of your rantings you don't...or can't.
You're not even a proper Donny supporter....and you come on here lecturing us.
Tune in tomorrow night folks for more of Marshy's p/ssed up posts.

I started this post to let people who didnt attend the forum know the season ticket prices.

Please donot let this get into a slanging match , it does the individuals concerned no credit.



Big Baz (Supporters Trust ) has approached the club re the pricing structure , lets see if anything is changed as a result .

I would be very surprised if your parents paid for a full TV licence it's free for anyone over 75.

And
God-Forbid that your parents become really ill and have a bit put by in their bank account and own their own home----
That's when the care-home charges kick in at up to £800 a Week---would they feel like just getting on with it then--i doubt it.

I totally agree......but who came steaming in the with the insults first?
We're supposed to clam up while we are insulted are we?
That bloke holds grudges and it's plain as day.
It's like having a Cyber stalker.

Presumably that old that you can't even remember what the saying actually is?

12.
(2 NR Group games, 1 Chall Cup match and 9 League games I think)

I guess it assumes the RFL ratify an 10-team Championship One.

EDIT - Only 10 teams in Chamionship One.

The reduction in Season Ticket price as against the total of paying at the gate per game is indeed a reward for the 'faithful' but it also gives the Club money up front which is clearly advantageous to it.

The point being made is that more and more people have sadly lost faith in the Club to see out any season without some sort of problem and therefore feel that in the event that they may miss a game or two due to holidays, the benefit (for them) is not worth the gamble of paying up front.
(That is not a criticism of those in charge now, it's just people have long memories).

As we have been told that the Club has not budgeted for any season ticket sales, just 350 Adults and 100 children at the gate then Season Ticket Sales would indeed be a bonus to the Club assuming the other targets are met.

It does however pose a question ... Is it 350 paying full adult price or a percentage paying the OAP price?

The Supporters Trust Committee have a meeting scheduled with Carl Hall, Steve Scholes and John Scarrow on Thursday (12 November).

We will raise the concerns highlighted in this thread and provide some feedback.

You sure do work hard keeping this board informing the Donny fans , just noticed you have almost a quarter of the posts on the board

Well done keep it up

Hi All,

If as many people supported the club as in our Race night coming up on the 10th December, fans forums we are looking at holding regular(not just the same faces every time), lottery and other events we put on as they do come on here to air there views, we may be in a better position in the future when we look at season ticket prices.

From reading the posts on here neally everyone has come up with a different price structure so whoever would of set prices not everyone would of been happy.

This is not having a go at anyone it's fact.

Didn't realise that.



Thanks, will do.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.. You made that post and the other posts that you usually make, like anybody really cares what you say!!..



So, how would you define a 'Proper' Dons supporter??

I would say.. Anybody who comes to support the Dons every week, 'or' those who just go now and again and pays their money is a 'proper' Dons supporter.. But.. You only get what you pay for!!

Tune in tomorra for more of SO's Sarcastic comments

It wasn't sarcasm at all.....he's an Hull supporter who comes to some Donny games....and comes on here and calls people s.
I would classify that as a very low form of contribution.

As for what I say.......on this particular topic unless you come from Mars....you should have detected that most proper dons supporters agree the senior price differential is wrong.
Which is the point of this thread.

And unless you have something proper to contribue apart from trying to fuel arguments....perhaps you ought to not bother.

This is an information and DISCUSSION forum.....I don't expect people to like or agree with everything I say....but at least I contribute and regularly.

I think that enough has now been said on this subject for the time being.

It will be raised with the Club representatives on Thursday and their response will be made available.

However, one thought ... we have so few supporters that we can ill afford to fall out amongst ourselves.

The Supporters Society (Trust) Committee raised this issue with representatives from the Club yesterday evening.

As Carl Hall was unable to attend the meeting, John Scarrow (Chairman) fielded the question and advised that the Club took a decision that they wished to get Children (and therefore Families) to the games - hence the £1 per game offer to 5 - 16 year olds.

Beyond that they pitched the prices as they believed appropriate to achieve a required level of revenue once the Childrens price had been factored in. They accept that this has not proved popular with a small number of people but acknowledge that they won't please all of the people all of the time.

John pointed out that the Club believe the Season Tickets (for all supporters) to be an extremely good deal and understood that they are priced as attractively as anyone else in our division.

The prices for match day and season tickets will remain as advertised.
