New price increases.

*Lots* of anger about this on Twitter. Particularly around the reclassification of youth tickets.

But how old is your grandson though?

Yep - massive hike for me and the lad. Still - what are the alternatives? IKEA on a weekend doesn’t appeal!

Honestly don’t think it’s too bad.
Less than £25 per game for me
If someone wants to take their lad £35/game
I know it’s a lot for some people but that’s reality.

Of course cheaper per game should we be in the Championship but let’s not go there.

But be honest those £49 seats were too cheap. A fair few of them stay empty particularly for evening matches or if little Jonny wont get off his x-box. Then you have loads of punters who cant get tickets and we sell out every week.
Its still only £10 for him to see a Premier League game.

I am defending the club here but I accept there are counter arguments.

One for me is that all these increases will probably generate less than £2m extra income. Thats a drop in the ocean in PL terms. 20 weeks of wages for Jesse Lingard if you like. But for some fans it is a significant hit.

Is it fair to say that our tickets were too cheap before?

Were prices not frozen for 3 years or so?

Id tend to agree Sniff. There are many people out there like me and my Dad who regularly fail to get a ticket due to the huge demand. We've been lifelong fans. My Dad is 82 and been going since he was 5. We couldnt renew our season tickets due to a few issues he had a couple of years ago and now we're excluded for many games. 

This is the reality of the premier league. It stinks but there are only so many seats available unfortunately.

Not having a pop but 49 was far too cheap in my opinion.
