YORK City Knights season tickets for 2005 go on sale from Monday, with a new uniform price in effect all around the ground.

Club bosses have stressed the changes brings them in line with most other clubs.

A season ticket for adult standing has increased from £100 to £110 but for seating the price has dropped from £120 to £110, with respective changes across the board for senior and junior concessions.

A family season ticket has gone up from £200 for standing (£240 seating) to £250, while, unlike last season, there are no early-bird prices.

Match-day admission is also on uniform price basis, with adult prices changing from £9 standing or £11 seating to a straight £10. There is now no match-day discount for seniors.

Chief executive Ferres said part of the reason behind the one-price decision was for administrative and logistical reasons. "Most grounds now tend to be one-priced. Having a straight price around the ground does aid the operation," he said.

"We're bringing prices in line with most of the clubs in our division and I think we're giving good value for money.

"We have to increase our revenue to try to bring better players to the club and I think people can see that the money they give is going into the club in the right way."
