Incredible if true.

Its poor, but Liverpool wouldnt be charging much lower if the game was at their place.

Also, there is no actual proof that they will really be charging £93, just guess work going on previous games.

The only answer to those prices is a boycott.

Liverpool were very reasonably priced when we played them two years ago. I know we're not a Prem side, but it was a good price iirc.

I guess it make sense for the highest priced away tickets to be at the highest priced stadium in the country...

 

[martin tyler]

93 is mad though. Can not see how that is justified if true. £1 a minute. Plus travel from Liverpool and food and drink on the day. Could be up to £200 per person. 4 people could go on holiday for a week for the same price.

Lets not give Barber ideas...

 

[sydney]

the streets of norf laaaarndan will be awash with fake 20's and cheap scouse bugle......could backfire in a big way....

 

[Puppet Master]

Just.... why!? It's a game ffs.

 

[Foolg]

If people pay it, they'll continue to charge it. Only way to stop it is boycotting, and sadly there are enough people willing to pay £93 a ticket for a big game.

It does make it worrying for me personally if we were to go up, it's simply unaffordable.

How much?!!

 

[albion534]

only guesswork obviously, but when will this madness end?

 

[Giraffe]

That is a ****ing joke. How can that possibly be justified? Just don't understand why anyone other than the really rich would pay that, and there can't be too many of those in Liverpool.

Maybe, but if they were playing Arsenal, that wouldn't be the case.

Their general prices are pretty high, considering the state of the area that they play in. Having seen the streets around Anfield when we played up there, I doubt there are many rich folk residing in the vicinity.

Arsenal got the hump with Brighton over ticket prices last year, so I was told.

I paid £87 for a ticket to the Arsenal v Liverpool league game a few months back. Steep, but as others have said on this thread - supply and demand. There should be a cheaper catergory for non-Premier League and Champions League games in my opinion.

 

[dougdeep]

How much will it cost at our FA Cup Semi-Final and Final this season?

 

[Brighton Breezy]

The price is appallingly high.

Bayern Munich recently announced they were subsidising every away ticket for the Champions League game at The Emirates by something like 30EUROs to make the game more affordable to Bayern's travelling fans.
