The London Stadium Concession strategy has been revealed to C&H by a top club source

By Sean Whetstone

West Ham will follow Spurs’ lead by phasing out our concession season tickets by moving them to upper tiers and lower priced ticket bands it has been confirmed.

The West Ham United Supporters Trust blew the whistle in a statement saying the Hammers were introducing a new strategy for new season ticket holders limiting concession tickets to certain areas. There have been no concession-priced seats for some time in 1966 West Stand and 1966 Billy Bonds season tickets and now it looks like seats in bands 1 to 4 will follow suit.

Existing season ticket holders with concession-based prices in bands 1-4 will not be affected by the change.

Speaking exclusively to Claret & Hugh a senior club source told us:

“Spurs have scrapped all concessions and have just the one price now in each area.

In the long term, we want to create family stands for children and the elderly, but it will NOT impact existing season ticket holders renewing.

Spurs have scrapped concessions altogether, even on renewals!”
