FA Cup - 3rd Round Draw - Exeter H - (KO TBC)

[Gordyola]

I notice that Shrewsbury have made an official complaint about Wolves reducing the ticket prices for their 3rd round game. Shows that it isn't just City saying ah we'll do tickets for a tenner and be done with it.

Reading fans were being asked to pay up to £45 for their trip to Old Trafford in the FA Cup this weekend until the Berkshire club stepped into to subsidise it down to £30. Reading fan and former-FSF secretary Jon Keen tell us how FA rule changes allowed Manchester United to charge so much…

jumpers for goalposts. Rush goalie. Two at the back, three in the middle, four up front, one's gone home for his tea. Beans on toast? Possibly, don't quote me on that. Marvellous.

Don't forget Cheesy Peas at half time.

The Shrews chairman did the same over the Joe Hart England money.

He went to the press rather than complained to the FA, but quotes the FA taking a cut which they haven't done for 5 years and wrote to Wolves to say he disagreed. Of course Wolves don't have to take any notice whatsoever.

The game could gross a lot more with higher prices, but the fans are the ones who have to pay so I don't think many will be on his side, and if they are they can donate rather than force others to pay more.
