Away tickets price cap next 3 seasons

Yes but the away tickets will be subsidised whereas the home tickets won't. That's our next task - getting the price of the home tickets down!

Well if that is the case who ever thought of this campaign got it all arse about face. Or had a vested interest
50000+ home fans should have been the priority not 2500 away fans!

I think you will find that clubs will subsidise this reduction out of the pockets of the home fans

the good part is 30 quid is the maximum so lots of games hopefully will be priced cheaper. about time clubs stopped ripping off away fans

Away supporters make up 3,000 seats at most, at all Premier League games.

Whilst the token gesture will benefit those who have the time/disposable income, it's a grand illusion.

How can it be right that a United fan can visit the Etihad and pay £20 cheaper than myself to watch the same game.

All this bullshit about trying to maintain atmosphere and ensure full grounds.

Until something like this is done across the board, home and away, all it does is benefit a very few, and doesn't even touch the sides in terms of financial impact to clubs.

Yes but you will be £30 better off than them at OT. You've made another tenner already out of it

I think it was always going to be a far more difficult task to do something about home ticket prices because each club has so many pricing levels and all different kinds of deals for home fans and to complicate things further a lot of these home prices vary on a game by game basis.

We'll have to wait and see how this gets funded - if it does come out of the pockets of home fans then that's obviously defeating the object but I suspect it will be more along the lines of increasing the away fans "pot" which currently stands at £200,000 per club per season.
