Would really like to see 5000 at away games but we don't get many chances these days and 'fans' prefer the easy option of watching on screens which is now available for most games. Hillsborough could be a huge game for the club but I expect our support will not match that? I actually disagree, I think if we’re either in the top 6 or a point or two outside we’ll take a good away following. The away attendance on Saturday wasn’t bad, considering the opposition and our form going into the match. @BessexRED agree with your comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TV Tom Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 If it was the Saturday I reckon we would take close to 3,000 considering where we are in the league, Hillsborough is a much friendlier experience than Bramall Lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 £36 is a disgrace but we shouldn’t throw stones on this.... Some tickets over the festive period for home fans for us this season have been the same price. My mate is a Brum fan and paid £34 for his away ticket this season (incl fees etc). somethjng needs to be done. Petrol and food included and you could get flights most places in Europe for the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian66 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Not much consolation I know but Wednesday fans aren’t happy with the prices we charge either (and I’ve just paid £39 for a ticket for Leeds with the worst view in the league!) Unfortunately our misguided Chairman thinks it would be a big advantage for us on the pitch if there were very few away fans at the game, hence his policy of wanting to price you out of it. Personally I think not employing unheard of foreign managers without a clue about the game would be a better way of giving us an advantage on the pitch as he’s currently finding out the hard way Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antlers Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I'm doing Millwall and can only afford to do one more away game between now and the end of the season.

RedM Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Fancied this trip but like I boycott Leeds for their prices I am not doing this one. Yes I know we charge similar and think this is disgraceful too. If nobody paid over £30 the club’s would soon back down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I imagined Premier League clubs were going to put a £30 cap on all games? Not sure if I’ve made that up mind. Thought they had gone ten quid better, £20’s Plenty? And some get free or subsidised travel. Stoke fans have continued to get free travel to away games after relegation. A Preston friend in the past has paid £8 difference to come to Bristol on her official coaches than we did to get to Preston too. These costs add up over the season. I think CATS to Boro was £42, not a cheap day out is it, but no doubt the win eases the pain, sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a tenner extra worth paying for what 'could be' the most important league game of the season. 8000 found the cost of going to a carabo game in Manchester easy enough to afford Weren’t the match tickets for that game quite reasonably priced, certainly not £36?

Portland Bill Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 It will cost a non ST holder or a non member £33 for Wigan at home on Saturday, so I don’t think we are in any position to moan at Wednesday.

Arsene's Wanger Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Premier league away prices are capped at £30, this has been extended to next season too. Arsenal (other clubs may also do this) further subsidise travelling fans by £4 so an away ticket is a maximum of £26. What's going on in the Championship is scandalous.

Header from a corner I recall. Long throw As has been stated, stupid pricing by us, sadly we charge our own the same and even more on the sides. Re price capping, it's great in theory but unlike the PL clubs we don't get the huge TV monies they do, at this level clubs rely on gate monies, I doubt it's even a drop in the ocean to most in the top flight. We then have to battle clubs with huge parachute payments so how do we get monies in to compete? we milk the fans. Let's be honest though, if you're doing an away day then a few quid on the ticket, unless you're a principled bugger, matters little, you know you're stumping up north of a ton for this game if you use the train etc really without even setting off. How can we fly to Spain cheaper than it costs to get a Virgin train 180 miles, it's all bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
