I downloaded the fixture calendar to my ipad and for some reason it didn't update automatically so I had to constantly delete it and re-download it to get all the changes Sitting idle on a a Saturday in August doen't make sense. It saves a midweek game later Which is why it's a folly to insist on a full season fixture list for this level. Now it's there, the first chance they get people want to change it. Kennie has the worst job in football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot supporter Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Pollok prices up to £9, £160 for membership, and capacity capped at 900.Any insight into why the crowd cap? Seems related to licensing but ground can clearly safely hold more. That's bad especially about crowd capping you can get over 1k at pollok for a big league game easy, its my favourite away ground in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those days are gone and are never coming back as long as it's a Senior League set-up. Is there any other Senior League in Scotland that has a set price for all its clubs? Last season someone came up with a graphic that had all the admission prices for the various clubs - anyone have similar for this season? Can the WoSFL release this information as clubs would likely have had to state their prices before the AGM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Have to remember, the cost of living increase also affects the clubs who need to pay the inflated gas/electrical prices etc along with the bigger wages that are now standard practice at several clubs.All well and good to say that clubs should cap their price, but for them to stay competitive prices need to increase. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If their financial model involves passing the cost onto the paying punters it's a bit shitty in the current climate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See https://www.gov.uk/cartels-price-fixing/types-of-anticompetitive-activity - Price fixing You must not discuss the prices you’re going to charge your customers with your competitors. You’ll be breaking the law if you agree with another business: to charge the same prices to your customers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs budgets will be based upon a number of factors including what they bring in at the gate so why shouldn't they charge the maximum to gain more money, especially if they have a large home fan base and don't necessarily require a large travelling support to make do. I know that we (the Arthurlie membership) got to agree the prices at the AGM I presume other clubs still do that so it is not the club putting the prices up its the members. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the league not have a cap here too? I thought there was a maximum clubs could charge? But at the end of the day that is not fixing the costs as clubs still have the opportunity to charge as they wish (with a maximum level) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
