I think you are forgetting one very important fact...the same way you started going to games all those years ago and it became a tradition..well there are kids starting that tradition nowaday too. Kids with parents who can afford it, so I am not too worried about Anfield not being sold out...it will be.
The price is too high, I agree, it's a disgrace, but it's the reality of things at the moment and is probably what is best for the club, perhaps not for the fans but for the club.... But there are better solutions than putting the extra burden on match going fans wallets. Like sixtiesred has said they could have more advertisements on match day which would subsidise the costs whilst still maintaining increase in revenues.

I don't think that's accurate with all due respect I live in this area live and work with the people there are not thousands of people here or accross the uk with £1000 to spend on watching football. There may be some no doubt but to fill anfield I think not there are huge numbers of fans who are just hanging on there is not another 45000 waiting to replace them. And remember that's the minimum away games cup games and merchandise can double or treble that figure.

And remember that's the minimum away games cup games and merchandise can double or treble that figure. But won't they find out in a couple of months (even before the start of the season) that the tickets are not being sold and they will have then to reduce the price? So don't worry for the club, it would be good if we can get some additional revenues for players.

This kind of emphasise that we don't need a bigger ground.

I'm not going to dismiss your views but I pray for the sake of LFC that you are wrong.

Nothing wrong with armchair fans - their tv subscriptions play a much bigger part than ticket sales. Besides, I've heard that Anfield has an awful atmosphere these days - apparently it's full of old scrotes whingeing about ticket prices.
