Liverpool Football Club have revealed their new ticket price plans for next season in line with the new Main Stand building project – which show prices ranging from just £9 a match for some local youngsters up to £77 per match for the highest matchday seat price.
The wide ranging review will see 64 per cent of season ticket prices decreasing or freezing – though others will rise and the highest priced season ticket will crash through the £1,000 barrier for the first time.
Season ticket prices will now range from £685 (£36 per game) to £1,029 (£54 per game).
There will however be what the club see as major new initiatives to get many more local - and more young - fans into Anfield.
There'll be a special scheme for 17-21 year olds - plus a plan involving Merseyside schools to give more than a thousand free tickets a season to local pupils as rewards for good behaviour, attainment and attendance.
Today's announcement coincides with plans to open Anfield's £100m plus new Main Stand at the start of next season. That will increase Anfield's capacity by 8,500, with around half of those seats being offered for corporate hospitality.
