How much would you pay??

[madasahatstand]

this kind of thing is wasting football

  football has always been a working mans game

 work all week , go watch your team on a saturday , go get pished afterwards etc

 now the prices of season tickets for big clubs and the prices touts are charging for big games are forcing the real football fans away from supporting their teams 

 i think it is sad really

 i am a big big supporter of Celtic and if they got to the champions league final or even a couple of years ago for the uefa cup final i simply couldnt afford to go to these games as would most working men with families etc
 
 

i totally agree with this big tom. when celtic went to seville the ticket prices were disgusting. i cant stand fans who sell their tickets on to other fans at a profit. its completely against the grain of the game. the folk that go to the games evey week should get the tickets but instead folk with lots of dosh end up getting them. its sick and very annoying

mad

I wouldn't pay that much.  With no ticket and if I wanted to go, I'd probably turn up in Paris and see if I could get one off a French Tout for less than a couple of hundred.   If not, I'd be happy sitting in a Paris bar, enjoying the atmosphere.

I know someone that paid 'a lot' for a ticket for Argentina v England over in Japan - he wouldn't tell me how much but when I asked if it was over a grand, he gestured that a grand would have been a nice price for him to have paid!!

Sounds like you'll have a massive crowd there, do what a lot of Celtic fans did in Seville, meet the tout - smack him, grab the tickets & run into the crowd of your own fans (who would lynch a tout if they caught him).

     

Hey presto thats what happened to the portuguese scum who tried to rip me off for 500 euro!!

I remember paying £25 for the final league match of Arsenal's 1970/71 season away at white shite lane.

It was a truly exorbitant price and I wonder how much it would be in today's money.

For those interested we won 1-0 to secure the league title and went on to win the double beating Liverpool 2-1.

Curiously the old goal average rule was in place and in that last match v Spurs 0-0 would have won us the title,

but 1-1 would have given the title to Leeds, so the goal that Ray Kennedy scored meant little.
