bdjfan 107 Posted November 23, 2015 Noodles I'm just seeing two Elite league teams issuing their season ticket prices at just over £200! Do they ride a lot less meetings than us? One of them that price includes program and parking! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of them that price includes program and parking! No doubt I will have the appellation "Bad Apple"applied to me again. But Season Tickets are rarely good value in the way they are for Football clubs for example. I buy them for convenience more than anything else. Free programme and parking whilst good is not the benefit it seems since a couple for instance will go in the same car and probably share the same programme. I may be wrong but think I saw that Panthers season tickets will not apply for any finals they may reach and this is a bit mean in my view.

Cupidstunt 92 Posted November 23, 2015 Well Peterborough's Promotion need to get their money from somewhere as last year the fans gave them near 50K to run the club, so ripping people off on season tickets must be their way of doing this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crump99 4,476 Posted November 23, 2015 Some may think the name is appropriate Certainly on the maths front: "PETERBOROUGH have hit their survival target to continue racing! The required £40,000 to keep Panthers on track has been raised." - what's 10k between enemies? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New era Panthers 2,055 Posted November 23, 2015 Lakeside and Swindon are quoting the £200 mark.I don't know much about the new Swindon stadium, but I do know that £200 for a lakeside season ticket is a bit rich last time I went there it was a couple of cowsheds with no seating and a lousy track with poor viewing facilities only one stadium I've seen worse than this is the dump at Edinburgh. So perhaps people should take these sort of things into account when comparisons are made 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PE7Panther 331 Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Nobody has to buy a ST if they don't want to. I think many, or even most, Panthers fans who buy a ST do it more out of a desire to help the club rather than for any financial benefit for themselves. So even if the discount is quite small, it hardly matters. And if it's cheaper at Lakeside in the EL, so what? I, for one, would gladly pay double to watch speedway at the EoES rather than at Lakeside Arena even if it is in the (so called) EL. IMHO people who whinge about ST prices need to think back to when we were all worried sick that Panthers might close down. Some even moan that the car-park is included but two of them travel in the came car, so they cry that they're a quid down. Jeezus H.....!!! No they're not; they're still getting it cheaper than people who pay on the day.
