KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Season Ticket Insult to Liverpool fans

That's Joe Cole paid for then!

If it's just extra 2m quid revenue for the club, I would vote against the increase. What's the point of incurring the wrath of the fans (who have been supporting the team for years) just to earn that extra 2m? It doesn't make sense. I'd rather they raise the funds via stadium naming rights or something. Surely they are more creative than that? And price increase would surely be the last resort to raise revenue???

As upsetting it is for those fans lucky enough to have had seats at Anfield for years this is a business and business is always about supply and demand. It`s a very easy decision for them as there are many tens of thousands who would buy a season ticket if one became available, if a few can`t afford it then unfortunately that`s business.
We all go on about giving us the best team etc.. well it all costs money as will the extension to Anfield and you can`t expect not to pay for it.
Harsh but true, I know also easy for me to say as I don`t have a season ticket.

How many of those fans will the increase affect though? and is it a significant enough increase to keep them away for good?

For some, it will be the straw that breaks the camels back and they probably won't go to anfield again. I can't that many loyal lifelong fans doing that though.
For others it will only be a small increase which will be seen as worthwhile for the bigger picture.

If the price increase causes 2,000 fans to turn their back on the club, do we have 2,000 fans waiting to take their place...?

£2m a year....isn't that the same raise that Suarez has just been given? Convenient. Let's hope no one else gets a payrise or Mr Stanley Park's ticket might end up in Ian Ayre's rectum.

You know Carheex you have been really horrible to the season ticket holders all day today.

Oh yes, the cheek of Carheex to speak with logic!! How dare he
