we who watch from afar should support the guys who walk as they are doing it for a good cause in regard to our club not take the p155 and say nobody will do it why not support it instead and say go on lads give em what for ? I find there is a distinct lack of respect for match going fans on here by some sixties, the match going fans built up the club to what it is today and will always remain the lifeblood, some people would do well to remember that when they flaunt there wealth or belittle the working class element of our support... lol Spangles this did make me laugh, because of price hykes you as a poor match going fan will be history soon and as you said yourself yesterday history gets you nowt. Why would/should any one do well to remember match going fans? Is it because your paying your money to build the club today,what about those who paid into the club yesterday? Best forgotten maybe?  to be honest my season ticket is only going up a fiver, still shouldn't be an increase tho, just think it will send hundreds of match going fans away tho including the lifeblood of the club which is the local ones, any club without identity is pointless but like us and Inited, might as well be called Burger King or KFC...

I'm going to be somewhat controvertial and suggest that season ticket prices are actually quite reasonable. I haven't lived in Liverpool since 2005 and have never held a season ticket, but to me season tickets ranging from £685 to £1029 is a bargain. If you pay it over 12 months thats £57 a month to £85 a month I'd be more than happy to pay that. The £77 ticket is getting a lot of publicity but the club made clear from the outset there would be a lot of hospitality tickets in the new stand and to be honest, this type of ticket is probably targetting people like me, daytrippers who go once or twice a year and to be honest I would pay it. There are however still much cheaper tickets available.
Nobody likes prices going up but most football clubs are run purely as businesses now and so long as the stadium is still full, prices are going to continue to rise. It's no different to any of our rivals, especially the London clubs, they pay much more anyway. Hopefully this will go someway at least to bridging the financial gap to them, especially if we ever get back in the champions league.
I understand I'm in the minority but I think this whole issue has been blown out of proportion.

The only thing is that the club are charging champions league prices for a mid table product so those figures will never add up. I like the point you make about the club targeting Out Of Town fans as its a point I have tried to make on here many times about fans being different and having other priorities. Unfortunately while the Club aggressively chases tourists and day trippers its at the detriment of locals and also regular match going fans as in price hikes...

Some tickets are going out at 9 quid but that's for the 3 category C games a season which will probably be Bournemouth, Norwich and Sunderland on a cold Midweek nite also there's only about 120 each game anyway. As for the locals tickets there distributing again there's a method in there madness they are now worried about Everton hoovering up all the young local support which they have done for years now, they know there is no local support to fall back on now...

Ayer trying to head off a revolt V Sunderland by talking to the BBC. If they didn't feel it was going to dent the shiny investment vehicle he wouldn't be doing it.
