I would of gone aswell but it is at 1.15 on a Sunday when Firstborn will be playing so I will be watching that instead. I imagine Broseley under-16s will be a bit cheaper than £36 with the added benefit of being allowed to stand.

Our tickets for Arsenal away on mon Dec 21st are £64 each

posted on 14/11/15

We sold over 4000 tickets last season for this game. This year with this price I expect we will sell about 2000. Wednesday get 100,000 pound from the TV for this but they have lost around £60,000 already from us. They will probably lose a similar amount from Wednesday fans not attending plus losses in catering and merchandising on the day by making this game so expensive they will be losing money.

Forest lost around 4,000 on the gate last week so they too had a net loss in revenue due to their pricing policy. Many of the people who run football clubs don't have a clue how to run a business.

The Wednesday supporters aren't happy about the increase either! But if people keep turning up they'll keep charging these bloated prices

People don't keep turning up though Jorvok. Wednesday are only averaging just over 20,000 this year and their highest gate so far is just over 23,000. They have improved on last season but aren't attracting the fans, probably due to over charging.

I know a few Wendies & they are staying away Spart. If their form falters the crowds will drop, then will the owner drop the prices?

Owning a football club and having some common sense are normally mutually exclusive.

On a completely different note, I just read that the the new guy running Tesco has decided to shut-down the department that was responsible for producing their own brand "Hudl" android tablet, despite the last model having great reviews and selling-out in a few days, (they are not making any more). I wonder if he wants a job up the A52?

At £20 a head Farwazi turned down £80k on the Derby game. I suppose he thinks muting Derby's support might have helped them get the three points.

I think we should not limit the number of Forest fans but charge them highly for the privelage of entering the hallowed ground. And stuff them in the game too.

I spotted it Vidal.

I'm playing golf with 666 in the morning. Anyone want me to ask him anything?

Strong winds and heavy rain given for tomorrow, you may need to hold on to 666 to prevent yourself being blown away.

The new pricing policy at Hillsborough this season has not gone down well. I have a season ticket, so paid up in full £480 in March and got the maximum discount which works out at £20 per match. However, the club charges £25 - £33 for pay on the day tickets depending on the Category of the game - shameful. Who can afford that? Our new owner has priced lots of Wednesday fans out of following the team.

I expect my season ticket to be nearer £600 next season (and more if we get promoted )

I'm sorry you won't be coming guys, the more away fans, the better the atmosphere - don't blame the fans, blame the new owner.

I actually just checked the prices for this match and it is £39 and £36 on the Kop.
