The club board met this week to discuss the budget for the forthcoming season. The directors discussed every aspect of the anticipated income and expenditure, and were mindful of the increased costs we were likely to face, including but not limited to utility costs.
The board also wish to give the management team a competitive budget, to avoid the roller coaster season we have just experienced, and to be challenging at the other end of the table.
In order to achieve this we have to look both at cost savings and income, and we regret that we have to announce an increase in admission prices and season ticket prices for the first time in four years. The increase will bring us into line with the prices charged by many of the clubs in our league in the season 2021-22.
The new admission prices on the gate will be:
Adults | £12 |
Over 65, 17-18 year olds and students* | £8 |
12-16 year olds | £6 |
Under 12 (must be accompanied by an adult) | £1 |
New season ticket prices will be:
Standing | Seating | |
Adults | £199 | £220 |
Over 65 | £135 | £155 |
17-18 year olds and students* | £125 | £145 |
12-16 year olds | £75 | £90 |
*students will be required to show their student ID cards when gaining entry or collecting season tickets.
Season ticket prices are substantially discounted and represent great value, also entitling the holder to free entry to all our home pre-season friendlies.
We expect to have season tickets on sale from 1st June.
