Nottingham Forest announce HUGE rise in season ticket prices for 2024-25… despite the club being

For the upcoming season, Nottingham Forest has announced a massive increase in season ticket costs. Supporters will need to spend an average of 24% more to guarantee a seat.

Even though Forest could end up in the Championship with five games left in the season, the club made the announcement on Tuesday.

However, they have still opted to hike up prices, with the most expensive adult ticket for the 2024-25 season set to be £850, up from £660 for the current campaign.

The cheapest ticket has also gone up to £550 from £465, while a child season ticket has risen from £90 to more than double that figure at £190.

Age brackets have also been adjusted ahead of next season, with only 14 to 17-year-olds eligible for a youth season ticket, whereas the current range is 12 to 19-year-olds.

The changes are expected to generate £2m for Forest, and club chiefs have defended the price rises.

‘We aspire to keep our season cards amongst the most affordable in the league,’ chairman Tom Cartledge said.

‘At the same time, it is imperative that the club continues to grow financially in order to remain competitive, particularly in light of the forthcoming squad cost ratio rules which will cap spending as a percentage of club revenues.’

Forest are just the latest Premier League club to raise their prices, with Mail Sport recently explaining how season tickets could soon be killed off.

Liverpool fans protested during last week’s 3-0 defeat by Atalanta by boycotting flags inside Anfield after prices were increased by two per cent ahead of next season.

Manchester United have also put up their prices for the second straight year after a long freeze, while Burnley and Brentford have followed suit.
