Good Morning All Huddersfield is the cheapest place to watch Championship football, according to BBC Sport Price of Football!!! The lowest-priced adult ticket is £10, with the cost of a programme, cup of tea and pie adding another £7.80 to a visit to the John Smith's Stadium. Only Sheffield United provide a cheaper matchday experience in the entire Football League. A day out at Bramall Lane costs £17.20, 60p cheaper than Huddersfield . "We want to have flexibility in our prices and this season we have formalised that offer and made a commitment in our pricing structure via the 'PROMO' category," Huddersfield chief executive Nigel Clibbens said. Championship leaders Cardiff City and Derby made history in June when they became the first football clubs in the UK to launch dynamic-pricing across a stadium. Prices for games at the Cardiff City Stadium and Pride Park fluctuate during the course of the season based on real-time conditions, such as team performance, rivalries, matchday and time and league position to encourage fans to purchase as early as possible in order to get the best prices. Brighton have the most expensive pies in the second tier, with a homemade chicken and ham effort at the Amex costing fans £3.90. At the other end of the scale, Blackpool's pies come in at £2.20. [h=2]The sub-£20 clubs[/h]Huddersfield, Sheffield United and Plymouth are the only clubs out of all 92 in the English leagues who offer a day out for less than £20. Last year it was 12 clubs. A programme in the Championship will cost £3 or £3.50 everywhere this season except for Elland Road - where Leeds United's matchday publication will set you back £4. Fans at Watford's Vicarage Road stadium can bag the cheapest cup of tea in the division, at £1.40, while Birmingham and Blackburn charge £2.20 for a brew - the highest. Meanwhile, Ipswich is the most expensive place to watch football in the Championship. The highest-priced ticket at Portman Road is £42.50, and adding to that the cost of a programme (£3), pie (£3.50), and a cup of tea (£2), means it could cost £51 to watch Paul Jewell's side.
BTW, we storm it on a season ticket, with a staggering £752,00, as apposed to Bristol City who would charge £249
Cosmic the programmes that Ive read (when free) I find his notes funny as **** which is why I can't understand how people still believe the **** he spouts lol
Morning all Of cause Huddersfield is the cheapest place to watch Championship football. You didn’t actually believe that anyone would be willing to pay a lot of money to watch that **** team play I’m surprised that they didn’t have to give all the tickets away for free to get people to that place
Morning all - Millwall - only League club that DID NOT RESPOND Classy! Well done to Huddersfield. What I would like to see is a comparison of attendances against these prices, or rather, a comparison of average total percentage of ground sold out to see if there is a statistically significant element I can understand Arsenal and Man U and Man C having such high prices if they pretty much sell out every match (or have 90% sellout) as there is no need to reduce the pricing structure. But places that charge a lot and have small attendances should do something different. I'm interested inthe Cardiff and Derby models of fluctuating prices - that sounds interesting
Not comparing like with like there elland. That's their cheapest versus our most expensive. Our cheapest is only £462 I find it staggering that any club can have a cheapest season ticket higher than £350, and that should be the top end of the cheapest tickets in the Championship. Hull's cheapest price is shocking
Funnily enough, Man City "have the second-cheapest season tickets in the [Premier] league at £275." Good on them, I would have expected, like you mentioned, that they would charge a lot more given they are the league holders. Let's hope GFH take a leaf out of their book once it is all a done deal!
The lowest-priced adult ticket at £10 at Huddersfield is actually only for one game (this sat against Wolves) and only season ticket holders can buy one
Thanks guys, I didn't see that on the bbc site before!? I've just done a copy & paste jobby into excel
