Wolves fans have today been reacting after the club revealed the prices of match-to-match tickets – and it’s safe to say that many people are not at all happy.
It has been an up-and-down summer so far at Wolves.
Fans have been pleased over the last few weeks having seen the club being proactive in the transfer market, with three new faces coming in after Tommy Doyle signed permanently from Manchester City.
Jorgen Strand Larsen, Rodrigo Gomes and Pedro Lima are all positive signings and will hopefully be able to make an impact sooner rather than later in the first-team.
There have also been a strong of positive reports coming out of pre-season so far, with Gary O’Neil working the players hard and overseeing two victories against Como 1907 and Bristol City.
But before all this, fans were left seething about the prices of season tickets.
Wolves significantly increased prices despite having been supported through some tough times by loyal fans, which even led to a petition protesting the decision.
There was utter disgust at increases for younger fans and also the disabled. Eventually, after a lot of pressure from the fanbase, the club scrapped increases for U14s, and announced there will be a freeze for the 2025/26 season, in what is a very small positive.
Wolves fans slam the club again as match-to-match ticket prices for 2024/25 are announced
Wolves find themselves in hot water with the fans again today, having shared the prices of tickets for single matches on their website.
Wolves say via their website that for Category A matches, adult ticket prices range from £37 to a whopping £71.
For Category B matches, tickets range from £35 to £60.
For Category C matches, tickets are £26.50 to £40.
The prices have gone down terribly with supporters on social media today, with many baffled as to how the club can justify them. Some honed in on the £71 tickets in particular and vented their frustrations:
Others made predictions about how these ticket prices will have Molineux looking next season, with several feeling there be plenty of empty seats and some suggesting they themselves will not be attending some games as a result.

Wolves can try and spin this however they like, but this is yet another suggestion that the club don’t actually care about their fans.
The club saw the ferocious response to the season ticket prices earlier this summer, and one might have thought this would have factored into the thinking when setting prices for single-ticket games.
But clearly this is not the case.
Wolves have failed to read the room once again, and officials can have zero complaints next season if there are empty seats at Molineux. They should also not be surprised if there are signs and displays referencing the ticket prices.
There is absolutely no justification for stinging working-class people with such prices when there is a cost-of-living crisis.
