All who can, should join the protest march from Regents Park to the offices of the Premier League this Wednesday. Meeting at 1pm and marching to the offices of the aforementioned to arrive at 2pm.

The protest has been organised by Liverpool fans and is in protest of the high price of watching football - BE THERE!:mad:

sounds like a nice jolly. will there be a EDL rally to follow?

seriously, what possible impact is a march to the Premier League offices going to do about prices at Anfield or the other clubs? they dont set pricing policy and have no power over clubs.

I have been away on annual leave and have just seen this. I can't make it this Wednesday as a mate can't give me a lift. I can make it on Friday though if they can rearrange please.x

Bit OTT isn't it? The board asked Gus to attend but he didn't turn up.

The price is only so high because people are prepared to pay it. If you really want to protest about the price of football, stay away until it comes down!

Well maybe if the likes of Liverpool hadn't inflated the amounts of money spent on players and their wages when they drove for the formation of the PL this situation might not be prevalent as it is today.

Clubs need to recoup $$ fby putting ticket prices up high.

You reap what you sow.

Not enough power but we marched on the F.A. and organised fan protests bought about the rise of Dick Knight.

Football clubs need to start listening to the fans who go to the game,fans who have endured a 770% rise in season ticket prices whilst Sky revenues have rocketed.

They keep rising as people are carrying on paying the prices - simple. A "protest" wont change anything.

Bit far for me to come I'm afraid. Will a letter from my mum be enough to excuse me?

OK, Sorry. :(

If I jump on the next flight I can make it to Heathrow by 11:15 Wednesday. This could be doable. Thanks Tony for setting me straight and not trying to worm my way out of such an important and life changing march.

Summed up nicely. A stay away protest is the best way to protest about ticket prices.
