I took a look at other clubs prices and generally we are the 5th most expensive side to watch in the league.
5 most expensive ''cheapest'' tickets:
1. Everton £58
2. Chelsea £55
3. Newcastle £55
4. Forest £50
5. Aston Villa £46.75
5 most expensive tickets:
1. Arsenal £145.50
2. Fulham £125
3. West Ham £115
4. Tottenham £109
5. Aston Villa £96.60
I'm not sure just how accurate it is but it gives a picture of where were at with pricing. The current financial rules have now got us to a landscape where the favoured five can by and large offer a better product and matchday experience at a cheaper price whilst competitors for European positions have to charge more to fill the gap in income.
I know next season is largely dependant on what competition we are in but surely we can't raise prices any further with us already have gone from one of the cheaper teams to watch to one of the most expensive in just a short period of time.
Oh and new stadium = cheaper tickets. I'm not sure that's been proven to hold up. Everton have used the shiny new bauble to make them one of the most expensive sides to watch.
