Wednesday's prices are very expensive, even relatively speaking.
It's the comparisons with the cost of watching football abroad (especially Germany) that really illustrate the greed of English clubs, even more so when you consider the TV money they receive.

I do think there's a bit of a myth with regards to the prices in Germany.I've been to watch Bayern, Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin and have always paid face value.Around €35 a ticket.
And you can buy a cheaper season ticket to watch Manchester City than you can to watch Dover Athletic.

That included travel, too.

That included travel, too.I can tell you now that my match ticket for Dortmund was £35, flight £50 from Luton. and hotel was £150. Not including spends. So not sure how that can be accurate.
