Academy member myself purely because of my work and shifts I do it would be pointless in getting a season ticket these last couple of weeks I have been able to see west ham home and away but I will not be going again now until mid jan at the earliest so with D G announcing they hope to sell at least 40thousand season tickets when we are in the new stadium along with the just under 4thousand tickets for away fans allocation and somewhere I hear 5thousand free allocation to local schools in newham as an academy member how much chance next year will you get to see us playing the new ground?i have little doubt it will sell out purely because of the novelty value of the new stadium and the curiosity of people wanting to know what it will be like but until it all settles down and we get used to the new surroundings I fear it could be a longtime before I will get to see them at our new home
You could well be right there bike!
Academy member myself mate.Ive only been to the leicester game so far this season cos of work commitments,family occasions etc.I will start going to a few more games,though i looked at the ticket prices for the chelsea game,even for academy members its about 80 squid a ticket!!What a rip-off...it doesnt bode well for the O.S imo...i agree season tickets sound reasonable but for the fans who cant get to every game,i do hope that sugo get the prices right...if not they will lose fans that have supported the club for a lifetime.....
saw that price
for the chelski match and thought how can a working man justify that and if you have a child as well then the costs over a £100 before you add on the travel something to eat and a trip to the club shop well that would be just to look not to buy anything....noticed the everton game sold out but chelski has not even though its a big London derby fans are being ripped off even if I could of gone I would never pay that amount it is just disgusting and a kick in the nuts for the ordinary fan
Agree!
In fact band A is about 90 quid,my son & daughter are under 21 so have youth academy,thats about £50/60 per ticket.so your talking £200 just for tickets for one game for 3 academy members that pay £40 each (membership) for the privilege of supposedly being able to buy cheaper tickets!!In the last season at the boleyn these prices are nothing short of a disgrace....
Smoke and mirrors chief
Calm yourself.
