The CoveritLive service is no longer free to use - assuming we have viewing levels similar to last season then it is anticipated the cost will be around £900 for this coming season.

I suggested having admission charged to be inline with the teams League position. Or do it like Pro clubs and have different grades for different games

How about no increase in League game, but an increase in LC games?
Having said that, there really is no justification for a price increase at all. It was too expensive last season, so leaving it as it is will go some way to rectifying the situation..

I would go for £8:00 league, £10 (maybe more) for FA Cup for obvious reasons, and would rather not comment on league cup matches.

Thinking about it, if i was asked to pay more for League games, maybe the club could fork out the £900 for coveritlive and the Trust Update team could do this invaluable service on the Clubs behalf (when available)

Seems about right.I think its important for the owners to show that they value the fans they have and the support and money given to them over the last 2 seasons .However at these prices will the model hold-up....

Average price for the league we are going into is £7,some are £8 and some are £6,but as the Lynn fans are there to assist in the profit making exercise i can see Lynn being £10? And will this mean that many of the away games will be hiked like the Buckby and Deeping games? St Neots are a league higher and will be £10,and please don't forget all original costings and budgets were worked out on a 350 attendance,and they don't have to fork out £15000 for the reserves now.

in that case a very good question.  my answer would be leave league admission prices as they are.  this would get more people through the gates.  as for the league cup a tricky one we could get  midweek matches against clubs from the north of england.  kendal or blyth spartans away  is not going to be a big money earner for the club.  so best not to get to greedy.

How about £10 and a free program. This would encourage more companies to advertise if they knew that 500+ people would be reading the prog which is more money for the  club

I thought the program costs and revenue belonged to Friends now, not the Club?

it does and appears to be a well run operation.  can't see the hard working volunteers who compile it liking that one.

The programme is is one the best 'off the field' things going on at the club,  best leave that one alone.

any surplus from the prog' goes to the fundraising budget the friends use to the shelter and other activities and for that reason alone should left as it it.

£10:00 is too much, £8:00 is about right.  massive savings could be made on operations if my memory serves me right.

would be OK with £8 league/ £10 f.a.cup and £5 for n.s.c and league cup? would go along way to show that they may value the supporters?as to increase the attendance for these matches with more people spending on food and drink?
