The Brentford ‘Pay What You Can’ scheme will allow fans to get advance match tickets for the Stevenage game at the price the supporter wants to pay. (minimum £1)

If this was available at the Amex, say for the game against Burnley, how much would you pay?

Well considering I paid about £32 for a seat (???) at Selhurst I think my Amex seat at about £23 plus travel per game is pretty reasonable.

I do think the Club s concession prices should be lower and include the unemployed.

not meaning to be ignorant but is it easy to prove/document current unemployed status? If so I really think it would be an excellant proposal for the club to sell a reduced price ticket on a match by match basis. Might people object though that it is too much like means testing or is demeaning having to provide proof of unemployment at time of purchase?

Errr, why should unemployed people get cheaper tickets?

This. What is it with society that thinks that unemployed people that are on JSA/benefits etc. should get reduced prices for a football match. Surely, if you are out of work and on benefits you should be cutting down not continuing the same lifestyle or bettering it!

OAP's and Under 18's are different, the first have paid their dues during their working life and the other is either still in education or earning a very low wage.

£10 for terrace, £12 for a seat sounds about right to me.

They all take up a seat.

See below for my thoughts.

I think i'd pay what I pay now. Wouldn't it be interesting though if you could pae for y after the game? Based on performance. Not feasible but I'd have paid a fortune for that Southampton game last year. And Sheff Wednesday this year. This crossed my mind after Gus saying that the fans get vale for money even when we don't win, because of the way we play.
