Millenium Stadium prices

[Oh for another Ron Pountney!]

Check out The League site
League 2 play off final £48,£40,£32 and £24.
All Hartlepool tickets are being sold through a booking agency.. which adds another £2.50 booking fee to each ticket and £1.50 transaction fee. I just hope the clubs involved (and the players) get their fair share of the the receipts

£48?

A £10 increase since last year's LDV...that's criminal.

No. What's criminal is moaning about the prices before we've got through Saturday's game.

If we win on Saturday what will then be criminal is the amount of people moaning at the cost of Cardiff tickets.

Possibly the last play offs ever at Cardiff and though Wembley may well be fantastic from the end of next season it's still a sh*t place to get to and from (unless you're clever like me).

I probably wont be able to go, so it'll be either Spread or White Horse for me, so im not gunna moan!

had to laugh at a west ham fan at work, his moaning because the top price ticket is £60 for the championship play-off final.

But the ******* hamsters are there

roll on 8 pm Saturday night.

It's not a moan, but merely a statement of disgust that a 26% price increase in little over 12 months is scandalous, whether we make it to the final or not.

Or live about 40-odd minutes away on the Jubilee line... again, not too tricky.

Or have a Nan in a residential home with a big car park within walking distance.

Sneaky.

There'll be even more cars on bricks in the North-East than normal then.

And imagine, of the 2,000 Macc regulars that drag themselves to home games (not even away games) for £13, how many of them will go for a round trip of 350 miles for the priviledge of at least double the cost?

They could play it at Caravan Park FC and still not fill it. Alternatively my Grandma could go on her own and out-sing them.

Its about time the FA/League woke up... Real fans (ie not Prem glory hunters) are beginning to rebel at the high prices charged for these such matches. I can see a crowd of only 10,000 or so for the League 2 play-off - an embarassment for Cardiff, the Football league and it will look awful on TV - Why not play it at a more sensible location (Villa Park, Walkers, Britannia etc) and charge sensible (ie non rip-off) prices, get the place 75% plus filled and have a great atmosphere). I can really see a (for example) Darlo v Bury play-off really filling Wembley - not. Its time the FL acted.
