Interesting Bournemouth news: Ticket prices set by quality baskets

Ticket prices for football matches vary depending on the quality of the opponent, but the division of the entire Premier League into groups is a novelty. Bournemouth, who will be playing in the top flight for the second year in a row, have come up with it.

The beauty of Premier League matches lies not only in the huge stadiums, which are famous all over the world, but also in the small stands, from which one can feel the history and the greatness of the importance of football for British culture.

What features do I mean? Stands close to the pitch, a canopy just above the stands and a small capacity. Alongside Crystal Palace or newly premier league Luton, Bournemouth have such a stadium. It can only hold 11,329 spectators.

Therefore, the idea that the club could make money from ticket sales by increasing the price is suggested. Less than 12,000 would sell out at any price in the Premier League, yet Bournemouth are loyal to their supporters.

He has come up with an interesting marketing strategy ahead of the upcoming season. He has divided the teams into three price categories according to his determined quality. This only applies to single match tickets, most loyalists hold on to season tickets from last year and no new ones go on sale.

Bournemouth put the big six plus Newcastle in Category A, most clubs are in the B group and the third performance group is made up of three newcomers and, somewhat surprisingly, Wolverhampton. Fans are laughing and asking why Wolves in particular have wandered into the last group.

And what does the introduction of the new groups mean compared to last year? Category C will be cheaper than the average ticket from last season, while the remaining 15 Group A and B games will cost more.

Still, Cherries fans are happy. The most loyal have season tickets and the rest realise that the prices are very reasonable by Premier League standards and given the capacity.
