Looks like I grossly underestimated the price increase.
My old DD from 2 years ago was £27/m. The new one is £55/m. There is a change though as 1 child is now under 18 rather than under 12. But double the price from 2 years ago seems crazy.
If the kids didn't enough going (partly because we are doing well) I'd stop it

New DD for me = £31.84 (inc. £1 pm for academy draw). So, basically, either a) don't bring your kids, or b) sit in the Cowshed, not the posh areas, or c) both and the cost barely rises.

OK, a flippant post and I genuinely feel for the fans who are having to make tough decisions between paying for the basic bills, or coming to football. Let's hope this current economic downturn is short-lived.

I'll be in the community corner or whatever it is going to be called.
Looks like I'll have to tell the kids I'm walking the dog every other Saturday afternoon (we don't have a dog).

Agree about the concern for those who are really going to struggle to put petrol in the car, food on the table and go to football. Imagine what it is like to be a Spurs fan. No chance of winning anything and paying 4 times what we do for the privilege

Anyone know what this GA 33% discount is for renewals? Club Red is £554 with apparently this discount included.

That cannot be right given its more than the early bird in 2019/2020.

All they are saying is that the season ticket price is 33% less than the 23 individual home league match tickets.
Though that seems to ignore all the normal cheapies - armed forces day etc.
