    You can reduce, they can't be increased should a big club roll into town.

    You sure about that?

    Pretty sure Derby would have charged more if it was you or United turning up.

    The old principle that always used to apply was that clubs drawn together would mutually agree ticket prices for the match, and if they couldn’t reach agreement the FA would act as arbiter and set the prices. Apart from that, the only constraint was a minimum admission price, ensure the total gate was worth splitting – each club receives 45% of net gate receipts, with the remaining 10% going into the FA Cup prize pool.
    This rule that admission prices must be mutually agreed still applies for the qualifying rounds of the competition, but it no longer applies to all rounds up to the semi-finals as it did before.
    Instead, FA Cup Rule 20 now states that:
    (ii) Competition Proper
    Immediately after the draw is known, the Club playing at home shall decide on the prices of admission, subject to a minimum price of £10.00 for all spectators other than concessions. The away Club’s spectators can only be charged more than the home Club’s spectators if mutually agreed by both Clubs.​

    Fair enough didn't know that <ok>

    I knew I'd paid less than £15 at some point which is why I questioned it.

    A whole stand closed ar Derby yesterday, and tickets only £12.50. Shame, as it was a winnable game for them.

    Pretty sure a rule was introduced to stop clubs fleecing fans should a big boy rock up.

    Could have just been discussed but thought it was implemented.

    Speaking of ST's, I've managed to get 5 of my 6 aways on my membership number this year. So by the end of the year if I do get one I should be able to get any away I want bar probably Bournemouth.

    Because you were playing a Prem team, would have been much less if it was Oldham.
