I have lost faith in fellow reds now , this should be a 100% backing from every red over this can't believe there even a debate over this . You're looking at it from a very selfish perspective. If you want the team to improve then you must pay the ticket prices. Cheaper tickets = lower quality players - the choice is yours..... I guess we won't hear anymore complaining about Henderson from you then?

Don't get me wrong, I have a little sympathy for them. But the fact that they can even afford current prices means they probably aren't short of a few quid. So the recently announced small increases won't make much difference to them. Well if you read Stan and Faz's posts they are stretched to the limit and this is probably the straw that breaks the camels back for them. And I dont think the increases are small given the current economic climate.

It is shaggy I am 55 and have been going since I was 7.
But careex is right we have no right to go. I have has enough and am taking his advve and telling them to stuff it. Me and my mate are sharing the ticket but after a year we might get bored with that. That's when the brave new world will kick in and these eager people on the waiting list join up and support the club. I will watch at home like careex who seems to know all there s to know about LFC from hs armchair.
Following LFC is far more than watching a TV programme but what do I know ? Now now Stanley, no need for that. Maybe you could elaborate on your point and give us an example of some LFC knowledge which can't be known by an armchair fan like myself? Maybe Car, we should be a bit more understanding of fans who's only crime is wanting to continue to follow their team. I think most of us fully understand their anger, but, if the club progresses with such a step, they they should also consider this aspect of things. It's not all seats which are being increased, they can still go to games by paying the same but at a different place, therefore, it's not even a case of being able to afford.

Maybe you could sit on jordan henderson - I knew he'd come in useful for something one day.

It's not about knowledge it's about experience the human experience. I was in Istanbul one of the greatest experience of my life but I dd not know the detail until I got home read the papers and watched the recording. The view was not brilliant in the attaturk either. But really you have no idea what I am talking about have you? Had I stayed at home I could have watched each goal from three or four angles and got each pundits opinion. But would I swap that for travelling over all the coaches travelling through the litte Turkish villages hundreds of people waving them past the flags the feeling in your stomach before hand? What do you think? Careex I feel so sorry for you you have no idea what you are missing. Those days are gone for me now not just because the team is poor but you would need about four grand to invest in the travel and build up these days.

Careex made. Really pompous statement statement such that I had assumed no one would follow if they current fans packed in. That is not the assumption I well realise short term new people will step in but will they be willing to pay £1000 plus every year thereafter? I think not and we coud well see anfield not selling out and merchandise plummeting and that will impact sponsorship and TV money. Reducing the ticket prices will be too late as fans once they get out of the habit remain armchair fans much as careex has and I would probably be the same and faz too probably.
So where would that leave the club in say five years and probably still without a new ground. We would likely see Henry sell up having raped the club and its fans and heritage.
What good will the armchair be then? Powerboat racing on Eurosport anyone ? I'd like to take up powerboat racing but it's too expensive. So I won't. How much is it to watch it £52?

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....

Is it true you have a 100% Italian leather arm chair Carheex? 'tis the finest leather money can buy. My armchair is adorned with the hide of the very last unicorn from atlantis. It has pure ivory feet and the back massager/heating element kick out enough energy to light a small country. It was made in a thai sweatshop at a cost of 43p and I bought during my last visit to Boston for the princely sum of $61,000.
