Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're saying the price rise is justified on the basis that we fill the stadium each week......and the higher they charge the better, because more dedicated long term fans will be priced out of the game giving occasional fans like you more chance of picking up the odd ticket when it takes your fancy!!The last few pages have highlighted how different the many people that support Spurs are. Having supported the club since 1961 I consider myself very much a Spurs supporter. However I have never been a season ticket holder and never will be. During 1970’s and 1980’s I went a lot. Just turned up and paid at the gate and stood on the shelf. Then with all seaters, lower attendances it became almost impossible to get tickets. Started again when at Wembley and been to new ground.
Now I live further away and cannot get home from evening matches by public transport. However I have not ruled out going to a 3pm KO in future but getting a couple of tickets is not easy for some matches. If ticket prices are held back as has happened in the past few years then demand will increase, season ticket holders will keep their tickets even if they do not go that often as they can resell on exchange. An extra 6% if you just go once or twice a season is not a problem. Yes I want the club to be successful and win a trophy but whilst I got a ticket to every Cup final between 1971 and 1991 I doubt I will ever again.
So whilst the ground is being filled every match then yes I support prices of tickets going up. Not sure of the split of Season ticket holders compared to other supporters on this site are but my point is we are all supporters but have different needs.
What a crass argument that is....I'm not surprised by the people who support you, mind.
So other teams such as Liverpool and Man Utd should double, treble, or even quadruple their prices....because, fuck the real fans, they'll fill the stadium anyway!!
Your argument is as morally corrupt as our owners, mate.
