Matty, if the prices you paid last year went up by such an astronomical amount as some have you would be moaning as well. Yours have gone up, what 15%? Others are almost double the price.

The extra seat for my membership went up $20. The year before it went up about 100 all up.
Well, you're very lucky. My seats will be an extra $525 for the family.An extra hundred or two would be fine, understandable even but $525? Hence the whinging on twitter. If my seats only went up by $20 or $100 I wouldn't be complaining either, however not all of us are privileged enough to sit in the hallowed Matty C Stand.

I just see the people are complaining and whining about it, they should email/ring the club and ask for answers. Other fans from other clubs are laughing at us.

I understand why everyone is going off about it, but has anyone done anything about it? So far, no.

I ain't privileged and I usually save up my cash and get a seat in there. Unfortunately other costs have come up in which I am on a payment plan for my seats next year. I work bloody hard for the cash I get, so I got to put it to good use.

Other people also work hard for their cash as well which is why its hard to cop double the amount for a family membership. I don't think you understand the problem here

Double isn't right, nor is $200. I understand this would add pressure to the already stretched money of a family.

price upgrades will always happen, but we worked it out that it would be more cost effective for me to get 1 membershiip, then get my missus and kids their own, than buy the family package for 5 games. That entitles me and kids to 12 games, missus to 5 (using a flexi 5 for her) than us buying the family flexi 5 and buying more tickets, or us buying the family full season package.

Should really be 2 adult prices and kids are free (seated a different story)

Well that is why there is an uproar. Instead of calling everyone whingers and that they are carrying on how about understand why people are upset. Its OK for you as you have stated your membership only goes up by $20. You are one of the lucky ones

how would you know what i have done about it so far you muppet...

shut the **** up already

All I have seen you doing is bitching and complaining. You haven't offered a solution to the masses as of yet.

The suggestion I put forth would be contacting the club on mass and inform them of the situation that they are putting people under and that numerous of supporters might not be renewing their membership.

Once they see money walking, they will act!

Thanks, I will ensure to get all facts from now on, before putting my 2 cents in.

I think we do need action to rectify the mess and hopefully they'll fix it before too much damage is done.

Well, at least I didn't vote for these carpet baggers. Here comes all the big Business smarts! All about profit profit profit not about the club itself at all
