£40 for Blackburn

 

[blademan89]

Incredible. Not a chance I'd be paying it

£40 for Blackburn

£37 at yours ain't it?

They'll only charge us £27 I think it is.

No, it's on a game by game basis mate think they are in 30 quid bracket.

 

[Jamo]

That is absolutely hideous from Blackburn.

Still be enough mugs that pay it though.

Only applies to us and Leeds.

Cat A* £40
Cat A £28
Cat B £25


Hell of a fucking jump that.

 

[TomPNE94]

Yeah I remember them announcing it at the start of the season and loads of our fans were saying good on them etc, it's bullshit. Not the fans fault that their clubs charge ridiculous prices, they shouldn't be punished.

 

[Oldbury]

£39 for Brum at Leeds this weekend.

Derby was always one of the cheaper match tickets for us, but that’s crept up over the last couple of seasons. £33 last time out.

Cardiff are charging £21

 

[M Dogg]

We’ve sold 3000 for Wigan at 2pm on Sunday and just got another batch. Impressive but also shows what some sensible pricing does. I think tickets are £15 which is excellent.

 

[Bobbin']

£40 is scandalous.

So pleased we’re only a category A game for maybe only one or two clubs. I’m begrudging paying Millwall £29 as it is.

Agree any club in the championship charging above 35 pound is a joke, Leeds and Wednesday prives are far to high for this division. I wish there was a price cap at a sensible price, but doubt that will ever happen

Derby charge 34 quid, we charged you 36. Not much difference there.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Derby only charged us £30 but £32 on the day.

Still too much.

How much do you lot charge for away fans?

 

[Derby1971]

But Derby is to much as well, we use to be a lot cheaper than that and should be, thought it was 39, but might be getting mixed up with Leeds, but for myself 25 pound is a much fairer price for championship football. So I hope Derby sort out there away prices, also there home prices as ours is 30 pound at least for walk up fans. For Forest and Leeds is 34 pound plus.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Prices won't change really whilst FFP is around

 

[Depthcharge]

We pay A+ prices everywhere we go but come to accept it. The £39 away fans pay at Elland Rd is the same that about 14,000 Leeds fans also pay at every home game. It is expensive and sacrifices have to be made.

Whereas at Hillsborough, if the away fans pay £39 that is the cheapest home tickets (members excepted) tickets for the other Stands are (off the top of my head) £42 and £46.
Never right but especially for 2nd tier football.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Pricing in football is a disgrace, then you have the train companies fleecing people as well for good measure.

 

[Brad-Owl]

£37 at yours ain't it?

They'll only charge us £27 I think it is.

It was £33 at ours last season v Blackburn, I think previous time was a midweek game so only £30.

They never bring many whatever price.

Yeah it’s simple when teams ignore it or sell the family silver (and stadiums) to circumvent it.

 

[Kenneth E End]

How much do you lot charge for away fans?

The same as the home ones, but we’re at 99% capacity right now. In PC, they would’ve been a bit lower.

Ask a civil question and get a cuntish answer.

There’s the problem right there shag. As long as there are teams selling it out paying stupid prices the longer it will continue.

Exactly right.

"Oh but we're so loyal and have the best fans in the land so we must pay £39 a ticket"

I get that it's hard to stay away when your team is finally doing the business on the pitch but it's never going to come down to a reasonable price while people are still willing to pay whatever ridiculous prices their clubs come up with. Same goes for away fans.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Ha you're funny.

Is it wrong?

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Selling the stadium is better than multiple admins and screwing other businesses. X
