[Albion] Demand for away tickets
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
I'd rather they just said £30.00 flat rate, no discount, rather then £29.50. Same as you, the points are neither here nor there, but that price is a piss take.

This reduction in concessions is growing. West Ham also a piss take, although you need young eyes to see the far goal.
Does anyone know if home club keep the away fan revenue?
Agree that BHA need to respond in kind to these clubs.

Gate receipts are not shared in the PL to the best of my knowledge so all ticket revenue is kept by the home team.
Looking at the info for when Brentford visit the Amex, over 65s and U21s are paying £26 a ticket but u18s are only paying £18. I would imagine that’s our pricing for most away fans for PL games.
It's about time that the PL stepped in, and imposed maximum charges for concessions on away tickets, otherwise it won't be long before clubs like Villa remove concession prices.

To all intents and purposes, they have already.
Away club get reasonable expenses but that's it.

My daughter worked in Madrid for three years and used to watch Atletico Madrid, and sometimes Real. She said the main difference between English and Spanish fans is that the Spanish do not do away days like we do. Alcohol is low on the list of match day experience, smoking weed in the stadium is prevalent as is eating monkey nuts with the shells scattered everywhere. The one ‘must’ for taking to the ground is a newspaper as most grounds do not have a roof covering the stands - the paper is to cover the pigeon shit on the seats, presumably the birds attracted by discarded nuts!

I’ll be in London for the Fulham game but can’t get a ticket. Does anyone wanna sell me their?
Good luck with that - highly unlikely given the sanctions involved for the person doing it if caught

My mate, Paul Barber, is also looking for a spare. He couldn’t get one as he didn’t have enough loyalty points. I’ve got his email address here, somewhere . . . .

Personal experience is if you’re a long standing STH you can get a ticket to any game you want if you’re organised. The European games there were plenty to go around for most fans bar Ajax. People get too into the politics of these points as this thread shows.

Yep me!Anyone else won the "collect your ticket at the ground" lottery for Bournemouth?
Apparently it’s a right pain, my son got “selected” last season!
