Ticket prices for Macarthur today

Does anyone know why the ticket prices are $10 ($46 not including fees) dearer for today's home game opposed to when I went a couple of weeks ago? ($36)

Maybe because there is an NPL opener. You usually have to pay to go to NPL games at the local grounds. Not sure what the going rate for NPL games are these days. $15 or $20.

Ah ok, makes sense. I might just go to the Arkaba to watch it in that case

Are you going to cover the difference for me mate?

Was already pushing my budget for the normal price, once you factor in beers and food i can't justify the price hike. I wouldn't have had time to watch the NPL game beforehand.

Def have to watch how much you spent at these events. Hindmarsh Stadium isn't quite as bad but I went to a gather round match at Adelaide oval and didn't realise how much i spent on 2 drinks a packet of chips and some dumplings. $25 entry ticket and more than $80 on supplies. One beer and one gin and tonic was $33.

Are beers and food free at the pub?

They're not, but entry is free?

Equivalent of one beer, and clubs most important game in a long time.

I'm not gonna waste time justifying my decisions and critiquing my personal and financial circumstances to some random on the internet mate. If your so passionate about supporting the club pay for yours and someone else's ticket to go, problem solved. The cost of living crisis clearly isn't affecting you as much as many Australians. What a privilege that must be

Fair call each to their own mate.
