With the New Year now upon us we can finally see the League of Ireland start date approaching. January as always signals the start of pre-season for the 20 Irish clubs that are expected to compete in the 2016 League of Ireland season.

While we await the confirmation of the First Division fixtures, here at Extratime.ie we can outline how much you are going to have to outlay on a First Division season ticket.

Recently relegated Limerick come in as one of the more expensive options with €180 for a stand season ticket (the terrace is €45 cheaper) while Shelbourne’s adult supporters are going to have to shell out €175 in order to watch their team attempt to gain promotion this coming season.

We can also see from the below table that Athlone Town are keen to increase their appeal to younger supporters with cheap prices across the board there while Cabinteely have also got very good value for money deals on show at the moment.

Sadly Waterford United and UCD have yet to release prices for this coming season but once either club have done so we shall update our table accordingly.

Cabinteely have concession tickets for under 21’s, the unwaged and OAPs. All prices listed are full value prices rather than the sale prices that are currently available on the Cabinteely website. In the family section, a number of clubs have taken the time to try and increase their family appeal with Limerick and Cobh Ramblers amongst the best value for families looking for their dose of live football this season.
