Just be careful replying to Wolves tweet about this. Just gotten myself a stay at HMP Twitter for calling Vinny a money grabber.
A lot of Moxey talk generally in that Q and A.Doing a fine job of throwing away years' worth of goodwill here.
The season ticket waiting list is a red herring, just because people are sat on there doesn't mean they'll buy one, especially if the prices rocket from an already high starting point.
And I hate this "compare with other clubs" nonsense, Moxey used to peddle it all the time and it was rubbish then too. It matters not one jot what Villa, Newcastle, Leeds etc charge because I'm not going to go and watch them.
Google suggests Vinny has a BA in Sport, Coach and Exercise Science from Manchester Poly. Clearly just a theory based degree. He's also not qualified for a commercial manager role - he's a Buyer

So when there was the all the furore about the breakaway super league a while ago and everyone was saying that football belonged to the people, are we now saying, not all the people, only some of the people, those who merit it ? I assume people that start a conversation with telling you how long they've been going ?
This message is timeless and appropriate.

Yeah, I paid £492 in BW lower and £69 each for my 2 U12s season tickets. Decent prices (though £23 each for U12 prior to the hike was better).Just so i have this clear it was £493 for the BW stand lower, and £514 for behind the goals? And £150 and £60 for under 17 and under 12 respectively? These are for 19 games? Or is it more?
So that is £26 per game for 19 games. And £3.63 per game for the U12. How much is it to go for just one match only?Yeah, I paid £492 in BW lower and £69 each for my 2 U12s season tickets. Decent prices (though £23 each for U12 prior to the hike was better).
Realistically if they do away with U12 pricing at short notice I’ll be out I think.
Paid £70 for the 3 of us last week.So that is £26 per game for 19 games. And £3.63 per game for the U12. How much is it to go for just one match only?
OK, so that is a big difference. Looks like season tickets are the way to go IF you can make all the matches. If not then you pay 70 per match if like you if you take your 2 kids with you.Paid £70 for the 3 of us last week.
Without wishing to sound a prick, I could afford £700, I wouldn't pay it though out of principle/value for money. The thing is, that would mean that for at least a season I'm lost as I'm not likely to get a ticket for a weekend game without membership, so that'd be me and my son gone. I'll be back when we are shit again, will he though? Mentally I've set £570 - £30 a game as my limitAt the moment it's a hefty outlay but I can just about justify it.
Any significant raise (and it looks like they're going down that road - we're looking at a serious uplift, not £30 or whatever) and I'd have to have a serious think, with the last year (and more) I haven't had much income and I have other things to pay for, my life has moved on a fair old bit since we were last there.
But really I don't get how after a global pandemic where there have already been severe economic impacts and there are more to come, AND we've had a shit season, they can even contemplate this kind of thinking. So it would come down to a matter of principle. Could I afford a £700 season ticket? Probably, if I wanted to and trimmed other things, and kept my fingers crossed that work improves. Would I want to? Probably not.
I think from 500 to 700 is a big increase. goes from 26 per match to 36 per match. Can you pay in installments or is it all the money up front?At the moment it's a hefty outlay but I can just about justify it.
