We are currently reviewing season ticket and match day admission prices with a view that they are likely to be increased for the 2008-09 season regardless of which league we are playing in.

We have managed to maintain unchanged admission prices for the last four years despite increased costs for staging matches. However, with costs continuing to rise, it is now unavoidable that they will need to be increased for next season.

However, the Board of Directors are very aware of the loyalty shown by our fan base during the past few difficult seasons, and with that in mind would like to offer supporters who purchase their season ticket between now and Friday 25th April 2008 the opportunity to do so at this year's price.

Fans Elected Director Brian Attmore commented, "Season ticket holders have been described as the bedrock of a football club and the Board of Directors recognise that here at Cambridge United.

"It has been tremendous to see the loyalty of our fans, particularly over the past few seasons. At the same time it is with great pleasure that we have been welcoming increasing numbers of 'new' supporters to the Abbey Stadium.

"The Club's intention is to offer season tickets at a price that represents value for money and for supporters to benefit from their financial commitment to Cambridge United. Whilst it is regrettable that match day prices will have to rise to help offset some of our increasing costs, we will endeavour as we always have to remain competitive.

"This invitation to buy a season ticket for next season at last year's 'early purchase' prices for a limited period is a great way for Cambridge United supporters to beat any increase and help the Club. I would encourage everyone to purchase their tickets now."

As in previous seasons, season ticket income will be ring-fenced in a separate account and released to the club on a match-by-match basis throughout next season.

As an additional benefit this season our partners from www.cufcmobile.co.uk will give every 100th season ticket applicant a free Pay As You Go mobile phone complete with £20 credit. These will be issued on every 100th application form received.

Application forms will be available from the ticket office and turnstiles from Saturday 22nd March, or you can download and print the form in PDF (Adobe Acrobat) format here.
