The reason given for the price increase is that it would not be fair that those who had purchased season tickets would be effectively be paying more per game, than if the match tickets are bought per game on the original prices.
My opinion, I am a ST holder and I would like to be polled by the club (they have every ST holders contact details) as to my views on the subject, I would much prefer that those empty spaces on the terrace and stands were occupied with Leigh fans I don't care that I payed more that was my choice, let them back in at the normal cost, my big fear and I don't see why the club can't see this is that a lot if fans will be 2 years out of the habit of attending live rugby, they may just decide not to bother again in the future.
Spot on H, I dont think one ST holder would have complained if it was £15 for the rest, the club have used it as a reason to increase revenue and it seems to have backfired- looks like it’s been a poor business decision.
I’m lucky that if I want to attend £30 is not an issue to me, went on Sat but won’t be doing next weekend - others possibly aren’t so fortunate
I think the club has misread the impact of COVID, people are wary about attending venues at the moment - in addition to which the the ticket policy is not clear, it’s not that long ago people were being told unless they had a season ticket they wouldn’t be able to attend, another “threat” that backfired
As it happens we now have a position whereby all being well we have a fir run of games away and after Hull the next home game will be after 19th July when restrictions will be lifted, and we have quite a run with “winnable” games - the club needs to look to promote it
