I really do hope that we gift Saint Helen’s travelling contingent with some plastic cheap chairs. That would be an excellent social media gaff and funny.

Away fans will still be in the worst side with little improvement however I think tickets will be £15 and the cheapest in SL so they can hardly complain.

Does anyone know if the banner on the west is getting replaced?

I can’t really leave old one up but be interesting to see whether it will be this years team or a club crest etc.

They’re not going to be £15, looking on the ticket app they are the same price as North stand at £23

Interesting. Last season season tickets were £100 and away fans were £10.

I’d assumed that as there was a 50% rise for season tickets that there would be 50% in match day to £15 too in year 1 and we would go to boost numbers and bring in as many away fans as possible.

Suppose that makes the season tickets even better value.

£15 would have been way too cheap for the West Terrace...£23 brings us more in line with the rest of SL IMO, especially when you consider that the Whino's were charging £22 on their website for the friendly on Boxing Day

£25 for the League game

Away fans can't complain too much for as long as the West Terrace is at is at Headingly. Nothing wrong with it per se, but when the rest of the ground has been so dramatically upgraded, it stands out as a real "we don't care about away fans".

Had a Quick Look yesterday and looks like the 2024 team banner is still up covering west. Hopefully this gets sorted in time for SL starting. Be better to remove it than have an outdated team on it.

I’m sure it will be swapped over.

At the supporters night I think they said it would remain until the terrace gets planning permission and and developed.
