Jute Posted March 7 Report Posted March 7 Email out today for season ticket renewals. Prices up on last year. No mention on what happens if we get relegated. Full details below. https://www.afc.co.uk/tickets/season-tickets/?utm_source=Maileon&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=7.3.24 ST Launch - 2324 ST no DNA&utm_content=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afc.co.uk%2Ftickets%2Fseason-tickets%2F Tough sell without knowing who the manager is.

Panda Posted March 8 Report Posted March 8 How can they justify any sort of price rise when we're already considerably more than Hearts and, to a lesser extent, Hibs? We play in an inferior stadium to both of them where many of the seats (RDU mainly) are essentially restricted view. There should be an option to get a full refund if we're relegated and/or the choice of manager is as uninspiring as I fear. Quote
Panda Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 So let's compare the season ticket prices with Hearts and Hibs, who both have far better stadiums than us and therefore a wider selection of "good" seats. Firstly, Hearts and Hibs both advertise their season tickets prominently on the front page of their websites. Aberdeen you have to go searching for it. Full prices (not counting early bird) Half way line Aberdeen: £479 South Stand Hearts: £500 Wheatfield Stand, but the front rows are £350. Hibs: £450 East Stand (Hearts most expensive, but Aberdeen considerably more expensive than Hearts for the worst views down the front). Behind the goals (non-Ultras section) Aberdeen: RDU (which is restricted view) £479. RDR £560 RDF £448 Hearts: £400 & front rows are £330 Hibs: £415 for both upper and lower deck (Aberdeen far and away the most expensive. At some points £160 more than Hearts and £145 more than Hibs for similar views) Ultras sections Aberdeen: £391 Hearts: £330 Hibs (which is a new safe standing section): £415 (Hibs most expensive but can justify it with the safe standing being installed, and at £24 for the season Aberdeen aren't far behind) Cheapest adult ticket Aberdeen: £448 (or £391 if red shed) Hearts: £330 Hibs: £395 (Unless you want to go to the ultras section, you're looking at £118 more than Hearts' cheapest ticket) OAPs/Adult/Children (based on one OAP over 75, one adult and one child under 12, three generations going together) Aberdeen: £807. Or, if you can get tickets for the RDF - which is typically tough due to demand - then £722. Hearts: £730, or if going for bronze section in front rows then £620 Hibs: £770 behind the goals, or cheapest bronze section (near corner flags) £705 (Aberdeen most expensive and that's with having the cheapest children's prices. It'll shoot up if the child is over 12 or the OAP is under 75. Hearts, again, cheapest). Fair play to Hearts who despite having a waiting list for season tickets have chosen not to rip their fans off. Quote
manc_don Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 That’s quite depressing tbh. Not sure how the club can really justify it. How much do we spend on the football operations? I’d imagine that must be more? Quote
Jute Posted May 23 Author Report Posted May 23 Prices are outrageous and only a complete mug would have renewed. Did mine today. 1 Quote
STFU_Donny Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 I hope most folk will be getting the early bird price, which runs up to 10th June. My ST works out about £26 a game for the RDR. Red shed works out about £19 a game. I don’t have a problem with those prices although I did consider moving down to the RDL to save a few ££ but I’ve gotten used to the luxury of a padded seat. What are the early bird dates for Hearts and Hibs? Quote
Jute Posted May 24 Author Report Posted May 24 Cannot see that Hearts offer an early bird discount but not sure if missing that as their renewal window has closed. Hibs discounts below Look pretty similar to ours. Quote

Hibs discounts below Look pretty similar to ours. Aye I see they have a £20 early bird discount but wasn’t sure when it ended. Had a look on their website and looks like it was May 1st. I think our early bird prices aren’t too unreasonable and the window is long enough that anyone seriously considering getting a ST can take advantage of it. We also offer credit options to pay up over 6 or 10 months. I know there was some fallout over the Dundee prices this year. Lots of their fans unhappy. Quote
