    How much do you spend on all things football related during a year. Include season ticket, matchday tickets, travel to both home and away matches, Sky Sport and other football subscriptions, team kit and anything else football-related you can think of.

    It would be interesting to know how much is actually spent by fans. I reckon it adds up to a lot more than most people imagine.

    Not being a season ticket holder it's difficult for me to come up with a figure so by the time I take into account of the following:-

    1 Tickets.
    2 Diesel.
    3 Severn bridge.
    4 Food & drinks.
    5 Replica kit.
    6 Hotels.

    Must be around £1,000.

    Have you seen though, we are one of the most expensive match day experiences in the premier league according to the new survey thats gone on

    That's completely skewed though Rhys, basically the BBC have asked for the cheapest ticket prices. Most clubs have staggered pricing, with a small amount of cheap tickets available before jacking the price up for anything with a good view, whereas our prices are pretty much standard across the board.

    If it was a table of AVERAGE prices across the league, I'd imagine we'd be in the lower half at least.

    Musty, three years on your licence. Then you have to wait another year then if you want to get them removed from your paperwork. Can't get more than 13 points in three years or your get band!!!!

    Very true. But if you don't have much cash to spare, you would be grateful of a cheaper ticket, even if the view was a bit restricted. £35 is a huge sum for 90 mins entertainment.

    True, but again on average it's cheap for the league I think. I'd rather pay 35 quid and watch the Swans try and play attacking passing football, than be a fan of a hoofball club in the league below who is still expected to pay 20/25 quid upwards to watch a game!

    Everything costs more these days, I think the judge is HOW much more it costs proportionally.
