    What a rubbish post. Chelsea youth is clearly the worst in the league. ;)

    certainly will not be going they will probably sell some of the ticket to a ticket agency like the last time over 60 pounds for a friday night game and a day holiday from work **** that.

    I understand people not wanting to go but the price is very reasonable, it’s cheaper than several away games this season.

    It isn't reasonable. If it's cheaper than away games this season then whoever charges those prices are robbing bastards and I cannot understand anyone supporting City away if it costs more than £30

    What’s the highest we charge away fans?

    For that matter what’s the highest we charge home fans for single tickets?

    As an OAP it would cost £45 for me and two of the grandkids. It would cost £72 to watch us play the Blunts at the KC.
    Many away games are more than £30. Though with our no concession system it can still work out cheaper for over 65s and kids so a parent or grandparent taking their kids or grandkids would find the overall cost less than going to the KC even in the cheapest seats.

    No idea but football shouldn't cost more than £25 absolute tops

    But it doesn’t.

    A pint of beer shouldn’t cost more than £2 tops.

    Our most expensive tickets are £30 for Zone 3 for a Cat A game (I think away fans highest is £27, as there's no Zone 3 in the away end).

    It would if people stuck together and refused to pay it. Makes you think what could be achieved by people power doesn't it. Think beer in William Gemmell is just a bit more than £2 a pint.

    Well then, there you go. A game at the title holders in one of the most salubrious parts of the country costs £3 more than a Championship game in one of the least wealthy parts of the country. And they offer concessions.

    The cost of these tickets really isn’t something to get on our soapbox about.

    Chelsea could charge a £1 and I still wouldn't go.
    We will have a defence consisting of Leniham, Clakestone, MacDonald, Clark.
    But I wouldn't be surprised if 2 games in 7 days is too much for MacDonald.
    It will be complete and utter humiliation and the Chelsea fans will love it.
    **** that!

    Someone sent in a text to Sports Talk on RH going on about it being £45. Of course it was just read out with comments about the price of football and much tutting without anyone checking the accuracy.

    £2.60 for handpull guest ales in there actually

    It went up from £2.50 recently which means I now end up carrying pockets full of change round instead of simply buying two pints with an exact £5 beer token

    terrible state of affairs

    I always pay by debit card. And say to the wife "what do you mean how many did you have last night" I only took a tenner out as you saw.

    I get on my soapbox ( I have one I carry around with me) about anything that is overpriced. If only people realised how much power they could utilise.

    Yep, if you’re not happy paying over £25 then by all means don’t go. The attendance figures would suggest many are happy to pay it.
