Season Tickets 26/27 massive price increase

[paul johnston]

The add ons are the biggest joke in Steelers land. Even more so than the cheap tat merchandise sold at a massive mark up.

And no attempt to even try and justify it, reflects a poor attitude towards their customer base at best.

£20 for the stream I wonder?

Sorry, I only watch the stream these days. I've no interest of being deafened in the arena.

Better be a damn good on ice product at those ticket prices.

Guess all the other clubs have done the same? Think I saw Storm's tickets were around the £30+ mark. Belfa$t and Nottingham are usually the most expensive?

They have mentioned on social media that there's an error in the pricing and they're looking into it.

Hopefully if there is, the correct price won't break that psychological £30 barrier.

My mate had already purchased our tickets, so i assume he might be getting a refund.

What with the issues people had purchasing the tickets (my mate had a nightmare) and the mess up with the pricing, this isn't Ticketmaster/Steelers finest hour.

Not sure I can recall a time the Steelers had a positive attitude towards their paying customers

As we've seen over the years, fans can only take so much and if they vote with their feet, certainly in Ice Hockey, things can turn ugly financially very quickly.

I'm sure Steelers will not be the only team with price increases, and while people continue to turn up in their numbers, then the envelope will continue to be pushed IMO.

It’s really not good enough though is it? They’ve had all post season to get ticket prices right, 4 months?

What do we reckon the reduction in prices will be £1? Or more?

[Johnny777]

I guess to try and mask the price hike it’ll need to start with a 2 so I’d be think maximum £29.50 but even that is quite the leap in one go and if the under 5 free ticket has infact been removed then again it’ll be a problem to a lot of families

Well if tony still gets 8-9 thousand through doors he will be happy with price increases,,,,, we shall see

Better reduction than I thought.

Just had a quick look on ‘Robbingmaster’ and a full price ticket is now only £26.50, not sure if there’s any fees after that, however, yesterday, that same ticket was £31.50.
