Out of interest has a pricing structure been announced for the semifinal games and the final yet? I know I've not seen it, but wondered if I had missed anything?

And by the way this is a much worse offering that the imo fair pricing we had for this stage.

Playoffs Package
This package covers up to seven games: four Semi-Final matches, plus the 'Best of three' final:

£49 Playoffs Package
£42.80 Playoffs Package for those who previously bought the 24-game package

Individual games
One-off individual game passed remain unchanged at £13.

Is it just me or If my team (insert team) Steelers obviously in my case, dont reach the finals, I would not particularly want to watch the best of 3 final!!

What happens if you pay for 3 final games but it’s wrapped up in 2? I know it says best of 3 but if you’ve paid you’d be hoping it went to 3.

I thought the packages for the group stages were fair enough, but I think they've got this wrong.

I'm not paying £49 to potentially watch my team twice.

They should have offered semi final packages. Say £20 for your own teams semi and maybe £30 for all 4.

I would have been tempted by all 4, but now it's a game by game basis.

That's the bit the I cant get my head around, How can they justify selling them at a higher rate with absolutely no certainly you will be watching your own team in the finals... Surely your odds are not good as a fan, two lots of fans are 100% going to pay for 7 games and watch only 2 and why in hell would I want to watch the second semi final anyway? and even worse watch a best of 3 final when your not in it!

Under the previous pricing structure the games got cheaper if you committed to watching other games your team wasn't involved in... Now in effect it cost more!

Think the best way to go about it is give the semis a miss then buy individual final games should we get there.

£49 for playoff games package, possible total of 7 games.
A friend has got a semi final for free due to streaming problems in the first Steelers game. But he will still have to pay for another semi and possibly 3 final games at £13 = £52.00 ? So free game is not free, it could cost him £3 more if final goes to 3 games.
