Local rugby league have been $10 for a few seasons now not the $5/$6 as stated earlier.
Gold coin donation? MT your joking hopefully.
Personaly I would have left it at $8 for entry but I bet this price rise has coincided with a referee increase of wages.
I'll still pay my $10 to go watch my side each week.
No increase in ref fees
Give it timeQuote:

at all grounds for the same competition.
Scheduled Fixture Adults $8.00 Concession $5.00 Cars $2.00
Rescheduled Fixture
(a) Where 1st grade team participates in a rescheduled fixture:
Adults $8.00 Concession $5.00 Cars $2.00
(b) Where only lower grades (more than one grade) participate in a rescheduled fixture:
Adults $4.00 Concession $2.00 Cars $1.00
No charge will apply where only one lower grade participates.
Solution to the $10 problem. Go home from the pub 2 schooners earlier. If you don't go to the pub , you've already got the fare. Or protest by going to the club, and play the pokies.
As for the referees fees they need to go up, so the refs can upgrade their glasses
And if everyone sends me a gold coin I can pay for my internet and keep offering these brilliant solutions
Where is everyone drinking these days?Quote:

May be an idea to do a spell check when you post.
I didn't see zico's post as a stab at referees outsider.Quote:

Seriously! I can't believe this has been such a long discussion! It's $36 extra (assuming you see one game, every week during the regular season). If people can't put aside 70 cents a week over a year to see some local football, then don't bother. Your time (presumably at work now) and internet is costing you more!
Give it up you lot. Next topic please.
It is not about $2 extra. Yeah it won't set me back too much and my lifestyle won't be cramped because of itQuote:

Not exactly appealing to get new people in the gate at $10 to watch a bunch of semi pro players kick a ball around.
Are you serious ??????.............cash grab...............you yourself are critical of low attendance numbers...........so how is it a cash grab. $10 for an afternoon of entertainment is ok in my books. Local League and Union both charge entrance fees, go to the central coast, ive taken my son down a few times to watch his mates in Central Coast local comp U/14 & U/15 and paid $5 admission.Quote:

So any good administrator is going to look at where they can increase revenue, they have to.
and if you dont want to pay $10 to watch a group of semi pro players have a kick..........................dont.
I am curious whether clubs are forced to advertise the price of entry as $10. (Many things since the start of NPL have become "standard" e.g. must happen to comply with NPL.)
I say, advertise, because clubs obviously get around the admission thing by offering season passes, offering "free tickets" to Juniors + 1 adult etc.
So I'm curious if they must advertise their admission prices as $10. And it is up to discretion of club what they charge, was essentially it's them losing money.

One could argue people shouldn't be paying a ****ing cent to watch It at all.
They are after all amateurs in abilities and amateurs for all intensive purposes except for the clubs being silly enough to pay them money to play for them.
Let's face it. The only people this is really going to affect is the occasional spectator, friends and people who might not usually attend NPL games.Quote:

Bridges signed for Jaffas.

Imagine how much they will have to charge at the gate to fund his next Tapas BarQuote:

Won't Bridges be considered a "marquee" player, having been at A-League level most recently, and he'll take up zero points? I thought that's how it worked..Quote:
