Club reject capping away ticket prices..

[AFCB_Mark]

You were charged £62 at arsenal? £60 at west ham? Are u sure

You were charged the lowest category at chelsea too

You were also charged the lowest category at arsenal which was just £26 so basically youve just come out with a load of bullshit

Arsenal was one of the few I didn't make this season so I've got that mixed up... my apologies.. I think Norwich was the randomly expensive one which was unexpectedly over 40.

I paid £50 for West Ham at the start of this season, 50 at Chelsea (they charge even more?), we were top wack at Southampton, £45 at Man City. We're a small club but we've sold out most away ends just the same as any bigger club would and have, and have had to pay good money for it in the process. Even with this cap, there's a decent chance I won't be able to justify doing so many next season, sadly I should add, cos I've over done it this season. But if you can't over do it in your first ever PL season, when can you.

Yes £45 at west ham but cat a is £60, you paid £50 at chelsea but cat a is £60, you paid £45 at city but cat a is £59 so as much as your paying absolutely scandelous prices the bigger teams cop for cat a every game. The cap will save you £50 in those 3 games alone id be absolutely delighted if we were a prem team with the news.

I'd rather my season ticket went down.

People in the away end at St. Marys will no doubt be paying less than me next season.

On the flip side to give some praise, we've had:
£18 Newcastle, £20 Swansea, £20 Sunderland (all subsided using the 200k pot) plus £25 West Brom, £25 Stoke £26 Arsenal(as you point out)
Which will presumably go up to £30 now? We'll have to see.

I'd love to see otherwise though. And for it to start a real effort across the leagues (L1 ain't cheap either, I well remember) to look after folks. Obviously it gets complicated lower down because of the inequalities in funding, but if the will was there...

I assume £30 will be the max. There is no reason why some of the clubs mentioned above would raise their prices to that level, especially as at least two of them could be playing at a lower standard next season.

I wonder how much Leeds will charge next year, based on this?

Good work FSF, the first step in the right direction.

 

[johnnytodd]

Terrible news for followers of clubs who sell out their away tickets every time.

More competition for tickets means less games.

 

[Jarv]

You can bet it will be a £30 flat charge next season
