Jeremy Wray saying if we're in League One, our ST prices will be in the lowest third of that league, and will gladly bet that our league position won't be.
I think the club have missed the point though. It's not the price increase it's the poor timescales the club have given on renewing on Early bird that will cost them for some season ticket holders to renew next season

I think the price is perfectly reasonable, if a little disappointing. The lack of notice is unprofessional and will put a lot of people into serious hardship.

Going to have to have a long look at the priorities, as the reality is that I can't afford the £500 for the family ticket and go to Wembley.
I hate the thought of not going to the JPT final, but I don't want to have a season as a non-season ticket holder and then have to pay even more for one next time I can afford it.
Real shame the early bird offer doesn't run through to the end of April.

I hope so because with stumping up for Wembley then expecting fans to be able to pay another £350 for a season ticket is a bit unrealistic.
Like I said before no problems with price increase just the timescale

If you can, get a Credit Card with a 0% interest period & use that to buy your ST's.
It saves you the admin fee and you only have to pay £5 as the credit card fee.

Have to agree with those grumbling about the deadline. I'd have gone for the renewal prices across the board with no timescales. This is deffo a gamble by the board on future success. There will be a reduction in those buying season tickets but that wont matter a jot if we are having a good season next. I expect it to be good and will be lumping on us as soon as i can get a price.

It's a shame because there is still a risk of them not extending the date which will mean some people will have to make the choice between Wembley or getting a season ticket for the cheapest option. ( potentialy all out of the same wage packet ) There hasn't been enough warning about the early bird price deadline.

His last footballing memories would have been happy ones, I guess. Sorry to hear that he passed on, but good to go out on a high.

You are never going to please everyone however we are all "victims" of this great success we are having.
Wembley and season ticket renewals.
Still value for money and everyone is entitled to an opinion here as well as budget constraints.
I want success this year and next so if I have put my hand into my pocket a little deeper next season then bring it on. 100% behind the Manager, Players and Board.
Football is back in Swindon.
