Made attempts to comeback but Hamilton away at the end of last season was the final straw Excuse my cynicism but why is it that every other fan can happily go to matches without any fuss or drama but these guys apparently can't? Exactly what are the unfair atrocities happening to them that for some reason don't seem to happen to anyone else? cristo, rik2304, Nelly78 and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see Bayern Munich for less than £10 a game. The average season ticket in the Bundesliga is €186, about €10 a game.

scott1982 Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 This is the treatment they got. Overblown numbers of bored pigs totally out of their depth. Not long after I took this picture they marched a kid out the stadium that couldn't of been much over 11 years old. It's a disgrace they way these young folks were treated. Perth police are a total joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints fans have been getting plucked out of there for years for less than away fans do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 German clubs get a shed load of cash from the authorities over there every season, to promote lower prices. Are people genuinely wondering why Saints have to charge more for entry than Bayern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having to house, feed and dress 1 or more little people and all the other expenses that come with them! Possibly, but I was responding to Havana Saint's suggestion that a good adult-and-child deal means that price can't be a factor in people not coming to games. If adults find it expensive, then they find it expensive. A deal that allows them to bring two children in for a tenner is absolutely meaningless if they don't have two children to bring. I don't live locally any more so can't go to every match like I used to, but if I did still live locally I'd be picking and choosing my games these days because that entry price is simply way too high for me. Personally I think that a big part of Saints' potential market is adults in the age group of around 18 to 35 - that means adults who might not have kids yet, and also might still be quite early on in their careers so don't necessarily have much of an income. What does the club actively do to try to capture that market? Attracting kids to games is clearly important for the club, but how many of those kids are lost when they hit the age where they're too old to make use of these deals? I've always felt that we lose a lot of supporters when they get to around 17-18, and we won't necessarily ever get them back. Perhaps that's also part of the reason for the poor atmosphere being discussed in this thread. Nelly78 and garydavidson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skivealive Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 The main problem with the FCU was that they couldn't hold a rhythm to save their lives!

saintgscot Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 Never mind FCU they are great. What I want to know is why etc when we play galatasayrry and have full stadium they go round while stadium asking us to remove flags from advert boards. But when rangers or Celtic in town they don’t remove there’s. One that’s picking on us as home team. Two is I was a sponsor and my board was covered up all match behind the goal by the green brigade i Woukd want a refund . mainstand and MySpazz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
