An increase for everyone then? I tried to print off the form to compare but there is a huge Panther logo in the middle of the form, which makes it impossible to fill in! Anyone else find that problem?

Couldn't remember what the prices were last year, but did feel like an increase.
I seem to remember we paid, then MK & Guildford joined and we suddenly had more league games, so I guess it was always likely to increase to cover an expected 28 game season (we'll see what happens over the summer).

See that they've taken notice (not) of what Forest have done in an effort to attract/keep juniors! Poor, very poor. 😡

From a business perspective, another cheap team plus announced prises = Win, win.

Poor, very poor. 😡 What is poor is the fans who will still pay regardless meaning the ownership couldn't give a toss where we finish as he already has your money. Don't get a season ticket, put out a side that will entertain, battle and compete for the whole season and you know what, you'll get more money out of me than you would have if I'd bought a season ticket. Show me something has changed and maybe you can have my money in advance for the 2019/2020 season. I suspect though that we'll see yet again "record breaking season ticket sales" giving the club no incentive to act differently.

Don’t get me wrong, would be great to have a discounted kids rate but in all honesty, other than doing it out of the goodness of their heart, there’s no need for them to do it

Although I agree with you that Forest's targeting of junior STs (and the hoped-for accompanying full-price adult STs I should think) might affect Panthers, we don't really have the same free space to play with.

Oh well, Forest win, Panthers lose, no skin off my nose. I know I'm not the only one (two if you count the kid) who is going down this route. Pick and choose the odd Panthers game & regular at Forest.

On the face of it a fiver isn't a bad deal. But a Forest season ticket works out at 44 pence a game for the youngest kids and a whopping £2.17 for the older kids! Like I've said before 1 x junior ticket = 1 x adult ticket . Panthers are missing a trick here. But then again Forest's owner seems to care, something which cannot be levelled at the Panthers hierarchy. As many people on here have alluded to previously, it wouldn't take much marketing (and sense) to fill the NIC EVERY game not just for the Steelers matches.

I'd imagine Forest's owner has done a cost/benefit estimate which is favourable to Forest, he won't be doing it altruistically. I believe The City Ground is normally about 2/3 to 3/4 full these days (roughly?), so he's got plenty of space to fill, for a league match Panthers rarely have that these days, even for the less glamorous ties (if any EIHL game is glamorous).
Better deals on cup games should be something they look into though.
I didn't think we had record ST sales this year? I don't remember the announcement anyway.

As many people on here have alluded to previously, it wouldn't take much marketing (and sense) to fill the NIC EVERY game not just for the Steelers matches. Thing is the money in both sports is so different it can’t really be compared. Transfer fees in football are that stupid, people discuss a million quid in a few seconds. Charging an extra £30 for each fan won’t make a huge difference to Forest. But charge (pure guesswork) 750 kids £30 more and they make over 20K which is a big difference in terms of salaries of our players. To the customer the deal isn’t great, but that money is more vital to the Panthers than Forest. Our club makes a great sum of money each season, but if they dropped it once, they would feel it a little.

Pick and choose the odd Panthers game & regular at Forest. Most mum and dads already going will benefit from a kids discount at Ice Hockey.So the already visiting family will get the bonus and that may outweigh the new ones coming in to take it up like Yotes said, little room to bring in the future supporters. Supporters offered entertainment packages, after 'off loading' the long standing fans who have brought the club to where it is now. When the place is totally full then we might see incentives to give them there and that would be swallowed up by an increase no dought too.

Remember, if you renew you accept this season as a success and you won’t get change.

I'm sure we're getting an extra game this year which would equate to the £15 increase. same as last year it went up £15 but we got 27 games not 26.
so in silver it works out at £12.85 per match against £19 at box office still not a bad price tho'
