2006/07 SEASON TICKET RENEWAL

Birmingham City can today announce some fantastic initiatives for season ticket holders that renew for the 2006/07 season, including the guarantee of massive reductions for the 2007/08 campaign plus a new £99 season ticket for junior Bluenoses.

Obviously our relegation from the Premiership was a bitter pill to swallow for everyone connected with the club but we are determined to bounce back at the first attempt.

We need your support more than ever and hopefully the introduction of some great money-saving schemes will encourage you to continue your magnificent support of the club.

Season ticket holders will shortly receive information on the renewal package as well as the initiatives we are introducing to make sure that your season ticket over the next few years is great value for money!

In the meantime, we wanted to make you aware of the renewal options available to you when you renew for Season 2006/2007.

Please note that the £400 price quoted below is purely for example purposes only.

OPTION A
Renew your existing season ticket package by Sunday June 18th 2006 and for the next three seasons regardless of division status we'll guarantee:

* PRICES FROZEN for Season 2006/2007!
* PRICES REDUCED BY 20% on renewal in Season 2007/2008!
* PRICES FROZEN at 06/07 prices for Season 2008/2009!
* 4 MORE GAMES (IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP)!
* THE BEST AVAILABLE SEATS IN THE STADIUM!
* GREAT BENEFITS including a 192 page, full colour hardback yearbook as part of your package!

Example based on a season ticket price of £400 for Season 2005/2006:
Season Year Offer YOU PAY!
06/07 1 PRICE FREEZE £400*
07/08 2 20% OFF £320
08/09 3 PRICE FREEZE £400

OPTION B - TWO YEAR SEASON TICKET WITH 25% DISCOUNT!
For season ticket holders and supporters who want to demonstrate their commitment to the club in yet another way, a two-year season ticket is available to purchase now!

Example based on a season ticket price of £400 for Season 2005/2006:
Season Year Offer YOU PAY!
06/07 1 PRICE FREEZE £400*
07/08 2 25% OFF £300
08/09 3 PRICE FREEZE £400
YOU PAY £700!
Payment is for a 2-year season ticket PLUS you're also guaranteed that year 3 is at Season 06/07 prices

NEW: JUNIOR SEASON TICKET FROM £99!
The Club has always welcomed families and young children to St. Andrew's and continually looks to encourage the next generation of Blues supporters to attend matches, which is why we've pioneered the successful 'Kids for a Quid' and 'Kids for £5' match ticket games'!

This year we're going one step further and extending our policy to season tickets with the launch of a junior season ticket for under 12's for ONLY £99!

That's less than £5 per game for the best available seats in the ground, the official Birmingham City yearbook, free junior supporter membership and many more exclusive offers!

Maybe they don't see us being the Championship very long.

If they're offering to reduce 2007/2008 prices perhaps they're anticipating us being in League One.

:unsure:


Look, fair play to them. They've realised there's a problem so they've tried to do something about it. Many fans will not be happy and many fans will be.

We're all being unrealistic to think they might actually have reduced the prices. Look at the Baggies. When they got relegated the first time around their prices went UP and they got promoted straight away.

And anyway, there's FOUR MORE GAMES in the Championship :ph43r:

Sorry did not see that!! :o

Oh well, thats another 4 season tickets they have lost for next year. A reduction of 30 quid a year over three years is pathetic.

You have a point JK - over 3 years the reduction is poor -

But will you be moaning next summer when you have to pay £500 for a season ticket in the Premiership when the rest of us are paying £380? (this is based on my Tilton ST costing £475)

£99 for an under 12s season ticket is brilliant in any division.

Put me down for the 2 year option, guaranteeing no increases for the next 3 years is an offer not to be missed.


Right then, interest free credit cards...who's offering the best deal at the minute?

Fair point Tim, but no I will not be moaning as I will have saved 513 quid this year !! As i have said previously I feel that we have been stiffed this year big time, and to offer me 30 pounds back per year over three years is just rubbish - IMO
To pay the same price next year to watch Southend and Colchester as I did this year is just unbelievable. When we went up my ticket went up 130 quid, now they want to give me 30 pounds off this year providing I commit to spending 1400 with them ------- come off it.........

Can't say im impressed, however they dress it up with offers for next season, they're still expecting us to pay the same price for championship football as we did in the prem, our tickets were much higher than Villa's while we were in the premier league and now it looks like they want to continue fleecing us a division down!!

That one where the crab whacks the golf ball a long way......Capital One I think.

If you buy on your existing credit card then transfer this existing balance on to a Capital One you don't pay interest until August 2007.

Been thinking about it myself.

be careful with the balance transfers now - credit cards have got cute to people taking loads of cash and getting it interest free.

Most now will charge you a one off fee to do the transfer - normally 2% upto a maximum of about £50. worth bearing in mind - you'll still save on the interest you don't pay though.

I suppose it means different things to different people. I take an under 12 so it's a winner for me.



I would like to have seen something done for the 16-18 year olds though. I think the Blues seemed to have totally missed the fact that not many people of this age earn the sort of money to pay for luxuries such as a £400+ season ticket.

Doing an intereest free balance transfer to a new card is the only way I'll consider it. Is is Option A pay three years up front; Option B pay two years up front?

My inclination is to says "no". Only way I'll change is if Bruce goes. If Bruce stays we'll be paying for the next two years as Championship football
