[Albion] £52 for Leicester fans tonight at Old Trafford

[chaileyjem]

In a recent Guardian piece , where he visits Brighton and a session set up by the Albion's Foundation - Richard Masters, the PL chief cites the £30 cap when pushed about affordable PL pricing. Although afaik it runs out this year. Might well be renewed and i hope it is but i've not seen confirmation of it yet.

‘We’re not blind’: Richard Masters on the pyramid, ticket prices and the Premier League’s soft power

Premier League’s chief executive tells Paul MacInnes he remains sceptical about regulation and urges fans not to overreact to promoted teams struggling again

www.theguardian.com

(PS: The FA Cup is run by the FA - hence no tickets cap. )

EDIT - The £30 cap is due to be renewed "in 2025". Its now been in place for 9 seasons. Coincidentally for every season we've been in the PL !

Premier League confirms extension of £30 away ticket cap - Football Supporters' Association

Sure, but there aren't that many 60,000 seat theatres.

and not many people travel 200 miles to go to the theatre and back in a day.

What happened to the Twenty's Plenty campaign?

Although £20 tickets would be nice , the FSA campaign for away tickets - in the PL at least - has been a very successful campaign. £30 tickets for nine seasons now shows that fans still have some leverage (TV companies want full grounds, and away fans reacting to goals, so the PL have to tread carefully here) .

Whilst he is something of a bellend, I really don’t think this is of his doing, clubs like United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Leeds all do this if they think the oppo fans will either pay it, or leave them more space for their tourists who’ll pay it all day long.

For a far more important tie, a semi, Spurs fans paid this last night:
U18 £5
U22 £17.50 max
Adults varied £35 max
Seniors £26.25 max

Ratcliffe from day one has in every way sought to max out revenues.

I’ve successfully swerved it for an age, Sky and Tyler were shocking … Manure TV.

it was a joke................

Oh.

Then, lol.

 

[ac gull]

Yes, the suggestion that Rashford going to Villa was a backward move. Last I knew, Villa were in the last 16 of the Champions League and challenging for Europe again. Twas a strange analysis.

Glazers knobs.
Ratcliffe knobs
Leicester board for agreeing with them, knobs

Come on, it’s Man Utd - Jim’ll fix it!

To be fair to Barber and his team, while he might pinch us for every penny at home, he's very good at negotiating deals with other sides for away cup tickets. £52 is a disgrace by United, and shameful Leicester went along with it to ensure their cut
