Liverpool at Home... FROM £57

[Corky]

I upgraded my sons junior season ticket for the Liverpool home game last year to an adult ticket and paid and extra £47 for level one CB stand. Add that to the match day price of his season ticket and you get around £56 , so it's gone up a quid..............!!!

That would be correct if you were in the family stand lower which the 'from' prices always refer to. South Stand lower is higher never mind Colin Bell.

It usually means other tickets will be £63-70.

I aan't now afford to take my grandson everyweek but I'd rather take him one in three to watch this lot than every week watching Saunders, Benson and Clark's bollocks. City have to charge to compete now Moomba, whether we like it or not I guess City is still competitive with most of the league.

So if I go ahead and buy my membership and ticket it will be nearly 100 pound .
That fu***** stinks
I might just watch it on the telly .
I need a season ticket now .
This is getting silly .

We don't have to charge anything. Ticket revenue is nothing to us and would barely pay for one weeks wage of one player. With the increased tv revenue we could make tickets cheaper.

The club will price out and is pricing out a lot of fans

As someone said on Twitter... charging each fan an extra £70 makes the club an extra £2.8m a season. We pay Scott Sinclair £2.9m a year in wages alone.

It actually makes me angry when people use the FFP line. That's what they *want* you to believe. Ripping fans off makes the club *very* little in the grand scheme of things. They'd save £3.6m getting an overpaid crock like Richards, who has contributed NOTHING for the better part of 2 years, off the books.

I feel uncomfortable siding with an elitist tax cheat, but what Hoeness said was 100% true.

I wonder if that's what they want. If people who attend about 5/6 games a year buy season tickets when both ends are extended, because it's a better deal the match day tickets could then be aimed at the lucrative tourist / day tripper market. Especially when the leisure facilities are up and running, when match day could be part of a Hotel Leisure venue, stadium tour package.
At the moment most match day tickets go to supporters that attend every season a handful of games, with loyalty points, who don't like the high prices and probably don't have a big match day spend.

Thank god for the season tickets, because match day prices are taking the piss....how can a working class man afford a match day ticket?

 

[Brendan110_0]

That price is terrible!!! £57!!! I'll watch it in the pub thanks and wait for the Cup and CL games. Pricing out normal fans now but we all knew this would happen eventually.

That's how I see City now catering for the business man .
They don't give sh** about the normal fan .
I`m thinking of joining the West Yorkshire City branch .
The next meeting will have Danny Wilson .
I might ask him why the club are pricing the normal supporter out of football .
Because at the moment it stinks

For those saying stop whinging & people always find something to.moan about, one of the reasons the sheikh chose our club was the loyal fan base with crowds of 30k plus in the lower leagues when times were bad.

We are a workings man's club and we have got where we are through the loyalty of supporters who sadly are now getting priced out with no end in sight to where it all ends. Yes we might see the best players we've seen in years but I for one think the match day experience is very poor now with sterile atmospheres at all bar the top 3/4 games a season. Plenty of us remember the kippax being packed by 2.30 with a buzz going round the ground those days are long gone with grounds 3/4 empty now 5 mins to kick off.

Luckily for me I can still afford to go but only just but what worries me is all the dad's who want to take their kids can't so they take them swimming , cinema or whatever instead. In years to come when we're all too old n fragile to get to the grounds our sons/daughters who in years gone by have taken our place willl have other interests to fill their weekend and when finally the bubble bursts watch how quickly the tourists disappear.

Sign of the times yes but good for the working manc far from it
