A 25% rise in 3 years. That's a fact whether its minimal or not is entirely subjective. If its for covid-19 it would be a one-off rise and revert back. In the short term its for covid-19 but whats it for thereafter? Ure still over egging it a bit.... And making it sound worse.... Its actually 20 %.... Sorry for splitting hairs but bad math annoys me lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for splitting hairs but bad math annoys me lo Trogdor is correct in his calculations. It's a 25% increase since £4 is 25% of £16. That is how you work it out, not by using the end figure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically for the last few years we have been underpaying to go to games! I think using 10 year inflation you may be closer. I cant remember what we charged 10 years ago. I expect inflafion is maybe slightly less than 3% a year over that timeframe but not 100% sure. If you'd simply stated 10 years I wouldn't have questioned it. I think the fundamental issue causing that is the number of seasons we 'yo-yoed'. When we got promoted we would add +£1 or +£2 then we got relegated we would take it off again. Thus never really increasing for inflation. Also, it looks a bit daft pricing for inflation anyway as you end up with increases like 48p or 53p. Best to do it every couple of seasons so it goes up in round amounts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're used to losing players for nought so I'll take it. Good luck to Harvie. He should be do really well in League One. Hopefully it triggers a bigger move, do we have a sell on? According to the BBC, MK Dons haven't revealed the length of the contract. Is that not a bit odd? Edited July 27, 2020 by Trogdor 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best to do it every couple of seasons so it goes up in round amounts. Although they give a yearly percentage for inflation you need to look over a longer period than just one year as things can be affected differently! Even over the 5 years it’s close to the inflation figure especially considering we have been in a higher league most of those years and switched from PT to FT 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North British Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Great move for a great player and Ayr can be reasonably pleased on this one . Hopefully it will send a message to young players that South Ayrshire is the best place to get game time and develop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
