The old price of Prem football debate.

I believe (I may be wrong) Sky are forced to air games at 'weird' times due to regulations set by FA? I believe they're not allowed to show 3 o'clock kick off games to protect lower league crowds?

For what it's worth, I think £20 is an ok match day ticket price, anything more takes the mick. I also think season tickets should work out at no more than £15 per game for early bird deals.

That would bring top flight English football in line with other sports and football leagues across Europe.

I agree with all the points made, the money is a big part of why I made the switch, but to be honest the other point is at Halesowen I feel closer to the club, my lad has been mascot twice, I have played charity games on the pitch, helped out a little over the years, got to know a few people at matches and I love it.

Where as the last 10 years ago at Man Utd it's just not the same as it was 20 years ago, in my opinion you are herded in and out like cattle and the social element has gone out of the window as well as the atmosphere.

Never in a million years would I have been able to do at United what I did at Belper, run on the pitch and celebrate with the players ! I don't even miss going to Old Trafford now, the only reason now is to take my son, but he has started calling his favourite team as Halesowen a Town and that made me proud !

Albion could charge £10 and it won't affect Albion. At the end of the day top flight ticket receipts are a bonus to chairmen. Sky money is the real income.

If Yeltz charged £20, excessive, yes. But it goes to a god cause and it's vital to our existance. That's a massive difference.
