Season tickets now released with all the details here - https://www.kltown.co.uk/2025/06/06/a-new-era-begins/
Highlights - adult standing £295 or £249 if purchased before 23rd June and still have the premium seating which I know will upset a few. For those who don't want a season ticket tickets the club are going down the advance purchase discount route so adult, so prices are up by £1 on last year or down £1 if you purchase before the day of the game so expect a lot less queues at the ticket office on matchdays.

I find that a strange route to take.
Certainly won't encourage the casual supporter or someone not able to commit to going until the actual day of the game.
As with all things, time will tell.

Really? I thought it meant prices are down by £1 on last year's if you buy in advance.
If you buy on the day there is an increase of £2 and therefore an £1 increase on what you would have paid last year.
Of course, the obvious thing would be to give the pricing rather than refer to last year.
Are the U23s no longer playing at Newmarket?
I assume season tickets do not cover pre-season friendlies?
I am a irregular attender as I don't drive at night and buses dont run and therefore no evening attendance. I also like the spontanuity of making my mind up on the day whether to attend. I do attend some away games and looking forward to Buxton away which will be £10 for a seat cash on the gate!!

Nemesis, you are right re the 'on the day' price and I have amended my original post.
The early, early bird price of £249 looks a good offer, equating to only needing to get to 14 games to be up on the deal against the pre-booked rate. Having re-read the article it looks there are two early bird rates 23rd June and 21st July so still an opportunity for those getting paid at the end of the month to take advantage of a discounted rate.
Bargain,got my first ever season ticket this season,went for the adult+,works out at about £14 a match,take off the price of the free shirt and 10 pints it works out about £10 a match.I think there will be a lot more sold this season. :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:

As long as they don't discount tickets later in the season again.
For me it works out at under £13. So decent value that. How much is standard admission on the day for next season with the 2 quid increase?
Will just have to pack sandwiches and bring a flask
I've also gone for the Adult +
I do have last years home and away shirts - so hopefully the 25/26 shirts are going to differ a little bit

Where do you live I will be going to a lot more night matches this year after a cataract operation
That's a kind thought Mike. I live in Hunstanton and
certainly be willing to share cost of petrol.
What a revelation with this extremely generous price structure, especially after years of being well over priced and the continual begging bowl. Got my season ticket as soon as I read this post. If this is a sign of the times, good luck to the new administration team.

Sorry Coastal I live in Swaffham so not much help I am afraid
Like I said lets judge the new setup which is in its infancy by what they do and what a start with the complete review and pricing of season tickets showing how they want to move forward with all supporters on board. Always disappointing to see the odd negative comment such as ticket discounting later in the season mentioned to undermine the good news. Lets keep moving forward and get behind what we all want a successful Club on and off the pitch

Absolutely, I didn't see the discounting posts as being particularly negative as recently there has been more proactive approach which has included targeted discounting where applicable and again is to be welcomed as often there were also 'deals' of some sort offered to season ticket holders too, surely the new era offer is good enough to allow for the odd bit of flexibility later in the season?

I think the question of price reductions further down the road is a valid point. We had the under the old regime so let's hope that the don't see things like that under new regime. I'm sure we all want to give Bal/Jo the benefit of any doubt and hope this is the bright new dawn this Club needs.
As for negative posts Ver... have a read of your last few posts. Time for us all to get positive. Don't you think ?
Just as a comparison Bedford now in NLN...£275.00, oldies like me £190.00. Under 10 yrs old £0.
That's a good deal for Bedford Town fans Nig. However I think we have the option of the best deal we have enjoyed for a good few years.
Just bought myself a season ticket 😃
Good value and U23's are back home at The Walks and free for season ticket holders😺
As are Ladies matches for those who are interested 😏
Time to start getting excited ⚽⚽⚽🥅 COYL📢
U23s, Ladies, and first team all playing at The Walks - will the pitch handle it?

I don't mind if they discount tickets later in the season for one off games etc,I took advantage of it last season.This season my advantage is the season ticket. :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
This means that the concession price of admission on an individual match basis if purchased online will be £1 less than last season but will still result in paying a significant premium compared with the majority of other teams in the NLN? Maybe i am in a minority but it suits my situation, due to a combination of age and health issues, to attend games as and when i am able, which will probably result in me making that decision a day or two ahead of the game.

Hasn't £1 of the entrance fee been "ringfenced" for the past seasons, accumulating for when the DCMS loan needed to be repaid?
If they are no longer ring fencing, surely there's another £1 to play with there?
:dontknow:
I agree with you Rod. Everyone has a better price this year apart from those of us who want to decide on the day whether we want to attend or no
t. Also, not everyone wants the faff of the internet and mobile phones in buying a ticket. As for the prices, let's hope we feel we have had value for money once attending games .
The new pricing structure seems to indicate that the club still take the older generation, many of whom have been loyal supporters since the 1950's, for granted.
:dontknow: sorry can't work that out £240 for 23 league games can't be bad value
Coastal I live in Hunstanton and I attend most games only too happy to give you a lift to the games
That's kind but I will probably stick to the occasional Saturday game where I combine the football with other stuff in town. Thanks anyway; the thought much appreciated.
Linnet465 the season ticket may be good value but
the admission for attending the occasional single game is not. Has anyone got the contact details so I can make this point to whoever sets the prices?
What's the minimum number of game you will need to attend to make a season ticket viable guys ?
For me the rest of the day is the most expensive. Fuel, Food, drink and wife shopping.
Once we have a Reform Government things will be much more affordable. :mystic: :laughcry:
Another idea! I see FC United of Manchester offer a " ten ticket book" which gives great flexibility to those who may not attend all 21 home league fixtures. This provides 10 tickets which can be used at any home league match across the season,allowing 1 supporter to attend 10 games or
for a group of friends who share the tickets and attend games together.
Whilst I understand that supporters in a certain group of "as and when" are disappointed, I urge them to look at the bigger picture.
There were times in the last season when we thought the club would be lost to us completely.
No coherent messages from the owner and very little information being disseminated by the club as a whole made it an anxious time for us all.
But a lot of positive work has been going on in the background and a lot of big money has been spent by Joe/Bal et al in order to get us to this point.
We have a club, a season and arguably a fresh start.
I think we should be grateful for that and I can't wait to see what happens next.
You are right Uptone. The last regime was poor on fan involvement. So with the 'new' regime now in situ the bar doesn't need to be set to high for improvement. Think we should all at least give them a chance to see how they shape up.
The little nagging issue I have still involved SC. The registered keeper of the keys. At Companies House, at least. Plus why have the new owners given him a 'role' at the Club? You would think they would want to put a huge distance between the old and new. By offering him something it's like they are saying he has a vital role to play.

There aren't any new owners. Cleeve and his wife, via Blue and Gold Holdings Ltd, still own the club and the lease to the Walks.
Jo, via his right hand man Bal (presumably via TSI), currently have control of the Club via a Power of Attorney. That's completely different to them actually owning the club.
If Cleeve managed to secure investment elsewhere, and made an acceptable offer to TSI so they could recoup part or all of their "loan" and they decided to tear up the POA and walk away, it's "as you were" with Cleeve back in control.
Likewise if TSI decided that money from advance ticket sales, income from friendlies, Trust money was sufficient for them to cut their losses, they could also walk away.
I do believe that there's more twist and turns to come yet.
Jo is quite capable of walking away and Cleeve will be battling to get control of the club back.
Cleeve won't go quietly, if at all.

Saying you'll walk away, and write off all your Directors loans, is one thing. Doing it is another. :countingmoney:
I would have thought if Turn ( Joe ) was going to walk away it would have already happened rather than getting further in by still paying wages etc. Cleeve told everyone quite publicly in December 2023 he had no money and could not fund Club personally and has desperately been flapping around to find other investors with no luck. Also according to Trust statements the members wont be asked to vote on giving Turn any money until the Club is in their ownership. So why people are still suggesting the opposite of this is a massive stretch of imagination.
If Cleeve was such a problem why has Bal kept him onboard ?
Apart from the EB Adult season ticket and U/16 season ticket, nothing has changed from last season which is disappointing to say the least. Lynn will still be the most expensive for General admission in the NLN for concessions and children.
With Premier seating still in situ at an outrageous £25 for Adults, Concessions and Children if bought on the day there is only one person who has set the admission prices for 2025/6.
Concessions need to be in line with other NLN clubs, a chance to rectify this season but a miserable fail.
The early bird offer has been extended to 30th June which will help those waiting for the next pay cheque to still be able to take advantage of the £249 price and over 300 sold to date.
