A bit disappointed that there appears to be no additional discount for U16s for our game with Corby. Prices are £9 and £5 for concessions.

Prices for the replay are £11, £7 for concessions and £3 for U16s

Any clue as to why we are having only a two-tier pricing system whereas Corby have offered the flexibility of a three-tier system??

(I understand that Corby are a step higher hence their 'standard admission' prices will be higher so naturally their prices for the cup game are higher)

A relatively minor point, but it's going to cost me an extra £4 to bring my lad along next week.

Many Thanks,

I believe it's to do with the fact we have to split the gate reciepts with the away team.

Pricing is always a tough one - the club has to set a price that is competitive, whilst balancing that out with the demand for tickets and level of football. If we want a successful team, we have to trust that the club are pricing games to sustain the level and standard of football we all want to see.

I haven't got a link to the article, but the Redditch Chairman said that if he wanted to cover the costs he had injected in to the club, he would have to charge each person £90 admission per game!

Confirmation of ticket pricing etc here

I'm happy to pay my £9 to stand up, can't afford a seat though....

I'm gonna have to miss this one I'm afraid due to prior family commitment but I have to say I'd rather miss this than the previously scheduled league game at FCUM.

I don't understand any complaints about pricing...

I would willingly pay £400 to watch Saturday's game...

Good morning PP, you may not have noticed but we have been in contact with Corby Town FC and agreed an amendment to the match ticketing arrangements which has been notified to the Competitions department at the FA.
For the match on Saturday there will be an additional ticket price of £3.00 for Under 16's which applies for both Main Stand and Terraces.
Hopefully, you will find this of assistance.

Well done both clubs

Yes, very well done to both clubs. On behalf of others who may benefit many thanks to the club for listening - it really does make a difference not only in terms of finances, but also in terms of the club engaging with the fans
