the cost of football

[I-was-there1976]

Cheapest Adult ticket is £14 to watch Lincoln v Wrexham and the quality is absolute shite (apart from a lucky shot from 30 yards thats nearly broke the net).

Yet some of those players will be on more than £1k a week for

not being able to control a ball
not being able to pass 15 yards to a player in the same shirt
not being able to hit a free kick / corner anywhere near a team mate
being quite a good cheat

some of these skills are also missing in Premier League games but the players are on 200k a week. They re better cheats probably

It filters down the leagues. You pay this so we must pay this and you charge this so we ll charge this

Where s it gonna stop ?

When people stop paying it. Simple.

I've been forced out of football for a while now. No point getting a season ticket as I would miss a load of games because of work. I think £18 is a reasonable price for 2 hours of second division football. I am sure we would have 11k plus on a regular basis with those kind of prices.
In 18 months our food bill has gone from £80 a week to £120 -£130 a week, petrol, gas, electricity and clothes have also gone up in price, we can barely keep up.
I work full time and run my own business on my days off so something has to give.

We could not fill the ground last year when all the deals were on nuga.
