Re: Play off tickets
Although loyality to the supporters is a lovely gesture, its just does not make business sense to give season ticket holders free entry or whatever! Rushden and Diamonds may be a football club, but its also a business, it needs to make money, simple as! Its in a market where results on the pitch affect the income of the club/business. Now a play-off semi final, the biggest game for RDFC in the last 4 maybe 5 years, the demand for tickets is going to alot higher than usual, the willingness to go to the game will be high, 'giving' tickets away does not make business sense to season ticket holder when the club knows (rightly so) that 99% of season ticket holders WILL pay the extra to watch the game..... Simple Economics really and at this time, that comes before rewarding loyality!

Re: Play off tickets
Getting into the play offs despite not expecting it at the start of the season is a fantastic reward for the last few seasons of tripe. I'm delighted to be paying £14 for the privilege.Huntersboyz wrote:Price gone up due to extra admin eh ??
Easy, let us ST holders in for free with one of the vouchers, after 4 or 5 years of watching tripe, its the least they could do IMO

Re: Play off tickets
Was this quy actually being serious? I would asume not tbh, and if he was i would concur with the above sentiments. There is no way season ticket holders should get free tickets! Those who miss one or two games a season due to commitments are just as welcome to come and get behind the most successful side we have had in years! And why should the club subsidise some and not others? Everyone knows we, along with pretty much every club in football, have not got much cash spare, and letting in anyone for free, with the possible exception of children in some games (as has been suggested before), is just foolish.davealbon wrote:Getting into the play offs despite not expecting it at the start of the season is a fantastic reward for the last few seasons of tripe.

not sure i can afford it now ;)
just wanna say this was a joke!
times are hard but a pound is nothing. cant believe some people on here, we have kept our prices the same for years now and for such a nice stadium they are very fair prices.
this is our chance to thank the club for what it has given US this season.
stop complaining and pay the pound.
WHEN I SANG RUSHDEN TILL I DIE I MENT IT! LONG LIVE THE AFC...
Re: Play off tickets
When do they go on sale to the public and not just ST?
And really are people moaning about paying a whole pound more? :roll:
