    Does this mean travel is free? No mention of the price on the article or on the tiger travel section, to be honest I wouldn't pay more than £15 to go down to Southampton, at £35 a ticket I reckon many people would still turn their nose up at it.

    I take my hat off to the people who do visit the likes of Swansea and Southampton, my wallet and sanity doesn't stretch that far unfortunately!

    We'll find out on Tuesday, but I'll be really disappointed if they use the PL money to subsidise travel, after agreeing 3 times to use it on tickets.

    Using it to pay for the 3g is a far better investment.

    Oh you!

    I'd prefer ticket reductions obviously but if they did free travel for Southampton I wouldn't complain.

    Would be awful on a bus for that long and fair play to anyone who does it.

    Has Allam actually passed on the £200k or has he just pocketed it - could the FA sanction him if he hasn't passed it on

    How bloody hard can it be to use £200k given to the club by the FA?

    There is also NO travel price reduction. It's £33 on Tiger Travel setting off at 7am.

    Just checked the club's website, they have finally updated the tiger travel part, £33 travel. The 2 longest trips around the country and no ticket price reduction or travel.

    Or is this a cunning plan from Allam to piss the fans off even more, by paying for Chelsea and Arsenal's away travel to the KC?

    Any subsiding of Chelsea and Arsenal's travel/ticket prices for their trips to the KC would definitely have been paid by Chelsea and Arsenal. They, like all other PL Clubs, have been given their own £200000 fund by the Premier League. It's a crying shame that, apart from some reduced travel price for the Arsenal away game, we have chosen to not use the allocated money. The regular away fans deserve better.

    I guess my sarcasm was lost on you, I know every team gets the money and we wouldn't do anything like that. However Allam seems hell-bent on getting back at the fans who oppose him, he probably thinks everyone who goes to away games are hooligans.

    No ticket or travel subsidy, forcibly evicting people from facilities.

    It's almost like something has annoyed him recently, and he's lashing out.

    I was thinking of going down to Southampton, but at 35 quid and the amount of travelling involved, I don't feel as keen on making the trip as I was before. For the two longest trips we will make all season and undoubtedly us still needing points for safety, surely it would have been sensible to encourage as many fans as possible to get to the games? Common sense seldom happens unfortunately!

    shouldn't he be reported to the League if hes kept the money - tantamount to misappropriating funds

    You think that it is reasonable that for the two longest trips of the season back to back, when we could really do with the extra support, that the club is doing very little to attract as many fans as possible to attend these two matches?
