Couldn't they come up with something original?

I see Liverpool are going to charge the same price regardless of the opposition.

A MAN who does not like football died laughing after discovering the price of a ticket.

Amid the controversy surrounding rising ticket prices Martin Bishop decided to ‘investigate what all the fuss was about’.

Bishop’s friend Stephen Malley: “He went online and discovered that it costs £64 to watch Arsenal play a football match. He had to check at least five times that it wasn’t £6.40.

“Then he stood up.”

Malley added: “He looked a bit bemused for a couple of seconds and then he just erupted. It was like a jolt of unbearably ticklish electricity surging through his body.

“He went all red and spluttered, ‘that’s just… utterly cretinous’.

“Then he collapsed, clutching his stomach and said, ‘So… presumably… at some point… they were happy to pay £40… to watch… a football match? Jesus… Christ’.

“And then he died.”

 

Yes, so some games will cost more. The devil is in the detail.

Here is the statement LFC issued.

• Removal of game categorisation – regardless of the opposition fans will pay the same price for matchday tickets.
• The pricing of tickets will be readjusted to result in zero revenue growth from GA ticketing on a like-for-like basis.
• Though individual ticket prices may move marginally from this season, we are freezing our 2016-17 GA ticket revenue at the 2015-16 level exclusive of newly-added seats in the new Main Stand.
• The price of our highest general admission ticket will be frozen at the 2015-16 level - £59.
• The price of our highest season ticket will be frozen at the 2015-16 level - £869. The lowest price reducing a further £25 from the 2015-16 level to £685, as well as all other tiers being frozen or reduced.
• £9 GA seats will be offered for each and every Premier League match, an allocation of more than 10,000 tickets across the season.


A Liverpool fan, who stated he had nothing against the board as such as they were not taking money out of the club unlike some owners and the ground extension was being paid for by an interest free loan. He did however pick up on the point you made. The second point in their statement could also result in price rises for some.
A lot of these freezes etc are for 2 years so what happens after that?

 

His sentiments are of course, spot on, we all agree with that. His use of the Bundesliga is as correct and specific as people on here who've never even been to ****ing Germany.

 

Happy's been to Germany everybody, in case you didn't know.

 

Last season Bayern averaged 75,000. They have 17 home games, so a total of 1,275,000 spectators. At €20 each that would have brought in €25,500,000. However their receipts were £80.5 million which at today's exchange rate is €99,200,000. That is an average of €77.8.

 

Plus of course they're exactly the type of team we should compare the Mighty Tigers to, not one of the lower teams at all.

 

If 26 were played at home then the average ticket price would have been €51. So Bruce's statement wasn't exactly accurate, was it?

 

You know some, then?
