So I could watch Messi, Neymar and soon Suarez for the same price I could watch Andy Monkhouse and Steve Mildenhall. Something aint right with that.

In all fairness they were the "Barcelona of League 2" at one point which could justify the same level of pricing.

You forgot that well known (non-league) player Stuart Sinclair!!

Ticket prices are incomparable between Barcelona and Rovers.

One is a massively supported community football club renowned for playing great football and the other is based in Spain !

I don't know why they have chosen to do cheapest ticket comparisons. The real test will be on average ticket price and average season ticket price.

Our previous EE season ticket was significantly cheaper than others in the ground because of the significantly worse view of the football.

Different teams cheapest tickets will be dependent on similar circumstances. I also do actually think that you can't compare too much between different countries. The whole study loses context completely which can be a bit misleading. E.g. The reason fleetwoods pies are so expensive is because they are proper homemade, quality pies. Unless you knew that it would appear that they were ripping people off.
