For me its more about the principle of paying £40 every two weeks to watch a game of football than the cost. But we shouldnt be creating a situation where long time supporters, our core supporters through the hard times have to sacrifice everything to see their team play. Thats the direction we seem to be heading.[/quote][/quote][/quote]
That was kind of my point tho mate, people who have other hobbies (smoke, drink, shopping etc) won't think twice about going getting their monthly fix when they get paid, and lets be honest at £4 a pint i think we can all say drinl prices are rising. It's the same in football, unfortunately we are a target market because we have love for the club, the club doesn't owe us anything really. We make a choice to go to the game, as we make a choice to smoke, drink, chase chickens or in a scousers case finger our sisters, the club aren't forcing you to pay these prices.
I'd love to see a price freeze but its a business, my gym membership has gone up in the last two years, a business has to be seen to be doing something to cover costs.
