Today the BBC released the cost of football and its an intriguing read, Liverpool come out the worst in the whole of the UK, which i found surprising as i would have imagined one of the London clubs to have such high prices for fans. Liverpool have the most expensive adult league match ticket at £39 the cheapest they offer, and they also top the most expensive day out averaging at £46.95 compared to the cheapest at rochdale being £16.20. Are the new owners hiking up the prices as were feared?
We also have reduced our ticket prices for children by £6. It is now cheaper overall for me to go with my son.
Adverts wash over me without making much impression. I've heard the quote so I used it as a joke. It could be for suppositories for all I know.
It's not that bad, ok so our cheapest ticket is more expensive than anybody else's cheapest in the prem, but only £4 more than Swansea. Our most expensive ticket is £48 according to the survey, cheaper than Fulham, Spurs, United, Arsenal & Chelsea. They've only gone up by £2 since last season. Season tickets are 4% more than last season, if you ignore the VAT increase, and last survey I saw said we were 8th most expensive in the league, which aint bad. I reckon the owners are just making good use of a price discrimination strategy like most others do, and I dont reckon we're being fleeced, not yet anyway.
I thought it was Chelsea whose tickets cost £87,you can get cheaper tickets for a ground with no atmosphere...the tickets at Old Trafford cost £35.
Davidako, ooo mong lol very well written, like a maggot more like. as explained quite clearly in the thread that is the most expensive cheapest ticket available, the article is based on the cost of football, so it will work out the cheapest it possibly is. other clubs have corporate facilities that pale yours into insignificance and so can charge more, this is mor about the average joe on the street who would want a ticket, who is the mong now?
What this report doesn't say is how many of these 'cheap' tickets are available for each match? I would guess somewhere like Old Trafford the top tiers in the corners which wouldnt be the greatest viewing angle would constitute the cheapest ticket, and the vast majority of the ground will the be the premium priced ticket.
In defence of the OP the BBC article has changed since this morning. The graphic did show Liverpool to have the most expensive ticket, it now shows Arsenal. I think the survey itself is a bit of nonsense, not this thread as someone claimed above. Any survey that gives stats on the price of pies throughout the league should be on a par with a Pie vs. Pie Cup that I saw in an issue of Loaded years ago. The transfer window must be slow today if this is the top footy story. If anything i am now curious to taste that pie at Arsenal.
You profile says you are a Liverpool supporter, yet you describe Liverpool as our club not yours. Make your mind up. Makes me think you are nothing but a WUM coming on here to stir the ****.
How does Liverpool having the highest price cheap ticket make them 'the worst'? It makes them simply the most expensive in that reagard, not the worst.
Saw that report, can't believe people pay that much to watch the BN's!!! And Kenwright claims there skint.
mong i havnt heard that since i was in school many years ago i had a look through the bbc article and it made very little sence, i dont like pies for 1
