Yeah big time!
For the club still to make a 3m loss this year with sell-outs
almost every game means we're going to have to pay more!!
I can't imagine how others clubs are managing when some have
crowds under 10k each week.

Well if inflation is 7%, then I'd expect prices to go up by that
regardless of other issues. Then there's two years of COVID for
the club to try and get the money back on.... So yes, double
percentage ticket price increase - wouldn't be surprised!

I predict Jester season ticket holders will jump to £350

Pretty extraordinary to learn that if you pay for Jester you
break even after 7 matches, 7!
No wonder the club aren’t making money.

All that proves is single match tickets in Jester are too
expensive
A price rise is not unreasonable but don’t fall for their sob
story..

Hardly a sob story. The club is still projected to lose £3m this
season even with sold out crowds.
They need to make money

I don't see how you can argue that tickets are too expensive at
any level when we've sold out every home game this season. As
others have said, Quins still need to make money, and if you
only need to attend 7 games to break even on a Jester season
ticket, then to me it's fairly reasonable that prices would
increase to bring it in line with other categories

Pricing people out is foolish long term, short term solution to
long term problem.
No club in the top flight makes profit. Which suggests ticket
prices are not the issue..

Yeah but their point was the whole model is unsustainable.
