In 5 years Anfield will still be filled to capacity. Mark my words. Where is the evidence of that ? Anfield is regularly not full today and in the past has got 35k and even 20k you seem to have a lot of knowledge marko on the ground you have visited once. Exactly what kind of fans do we have?! When the ground was full, were they only attending because we were cheap to watch?! I'm not sure if that's the kind of fan we want to attract. Trying too hard to be funny Car and offending some people who are undestandably annoyed at these latest price hikes.

If people choose to mis-read the context in order to flame their anger and justify their position, then that is up to them. No apology offered on this occasion I'm afraid. These forums are full of light heartedness, humour, ribbing, and sarcasm - I suggest that people lighten up a little.

The only occasion I've ever seen Anfield looking a little sparse would be on the cup nights (Ironically, as the season ticket holders usually aren't there) Either that or, monday nights / mid week matches where generally OOT season ticket holders find it difficult to make the trip - but on league occasions those empty seats are accounted for money-wise, if you get what I mean  One thing that comes to mind.. with the club trying to even out the books, the more money we turn over, theoretically it's more money we can spend due to the FFP rules.

Fine but I am sure you undestand how its going to rub people up the wrong way saying the only reason they followed liverpool for decades was because it was cheap and how desirable it would be to obtain fans who are willing to pay obscene amounts of money to watch liverpool. And all this from a man who cant be bothered to leave his armchair to follow Liverpool. You can see how that might annoy and if its humour I dont see anyone laughing.

It's not an issue of not being 'bothered'. If you knew where I Iived you'd realise how absurb that comment is. I've explained before though, that I 'prefer' to watch the game from my armchair. If I lived in Liverpool and had a free season ticket, I still wouldn't go that often, for various reasons.

Stan, I am sure LFC/FSG will quickly find out if their pricing strategy is working or not, most probably even before the start of next season when they get the season ticket sales figures. They would then surely take the necessary action. I know you would prefer it to be a flop so that you and your family can continue as usual, I understand this, but I think for the club any additional revenue is welcomed provided it is invested in players, this is how I see it. We need max revenue to compete at the highest level.
