Argyle reduce matchday prices
MATCHDAY admission prices at Plymouth Argyle are coming down.
The new Home Park board have marked the end of their first week in charge by getting rid of a £2 match-day surcharge on tickets.
Also, access to the Mayflower Terracing seating has been reduced to just £15, a saving of £7 on a full-price adult ticket.
The pricing policy is a direct result of the board of directors’ early interaction with the Green Army, including comments made by fans on the new supporters’ website ArgyleInsider.com.
In the past, it has cost adult supporters buying tickets on match-day £26 to watch the Greens – £2 more than if they purchased a ticket the day before, or earlier.
Now, whether they buy a ticket in advance of the game or on the day, the price will be £24.
Argyle director Keith Todd said: “We been delighted with the fantastic response of the Green Army to the dawn of the ‘New World’ at Home Park
“We have listened intently to what the fans have been telling us – in person and via Argyle Insider – since we took control last week.
“As a result, we have abolished the matchday surcharge.
“The £15 that it will cost to watch Coca-Cola Championship football from the Mayflower Terrace represents exceptional value for money.
“We hope that these initiatives will encourage supporters to come to Home Park and help us fulfill our ambition of making our first Coca-Cola Championship game against Queens Park Rangers on August 15 a sell-out.”
Match-day ticket prices 2009-10: Mayflower Stand, Devonport, Lyndhurst, Barn Park, adult – £24 (from £26); over 65 and under 23 – £16 (from £18); and under 18 – £7 (from (£8); Mayflower Terracing, adult –£15; over 65 and under 23 - £12; and under 18 – £5.
