It's cheaper to buy hospitality at Man Utd for their home games with overnight stay in hotel included

That's where we've got to!

Was hoping to do the West Ham or Newcastle early November game in what was legends lounge now Trentside lounge I believe but price getting a bit steep isn't it but expect when push comes to shove I'll pay it> Have to wait for TV itinerary before booking got caught out by that one last year.
 
Away for us including hotel and breakfast

229 each at villa
169 each at Everton
159 man city
169 man utd
135 Spurs

There's more available but they are cheapest deals to watch us

About half the seats in the Bridgford are available and a few in the TE upper, but the rest of the ground is not far off a sell out for The Yellow Submarine on Friday.
 
Two home games in and we haven't sold out any of them. Only 23,000 tonight and corporate seats looked empty. 35,000 capacity stadium is more than enough.

A lot of people are on holiday right now. Including me, or I would have been there tonight.

Ground was full against Bournemouth with 29400 or so but Bournemouth send a load of their tickets back. Not all sold because a) most people don't even bother looking that close to the game because there are rarely any available and b) people are on holiday

I would say the pricing played a big part in last night's attendance.

Charging what they did for a live televised game was not the brightest thing the club have done.

Simple maths from the club -

23,000 x £25 = £575,000
30,000 x £10 = £300,000

Over 7,000 seats unsold last night and most corporate packages unsold also. That's a lot of revenue lost. £15 or £20 would have been better pricing last night. Also a 50,000 seater stadium less than half full would be embarrassing. 35,000 capacity City Ground is more than enough.

I am not disagreeing with you.
Ignoring the corporate packages - because the ticket price has no effect on them.
The simple math is that by charging £25 they made more money than they would have by charging £10 and selling 7,000 more seats
