Quoted from Heisenberg
But what WOULD be an acceptable price? Don’t get me wrong, £27 is expensive and it’s too much, BUT how many people on here who are saying they won’t be going would happily pay £22, then pay £5 for a pint of ‘beer’ in a plastic glass they’ll drink in 5 minutes flat? Lots, I’d imagine.

Yes it’s too expensive, but some people’s principles are misplaced and OTT. Just go to the game (says me who barely ever goes to away games, admittedly).

Is your argument that people should not have that beer to facilitate these price increases? Or that people should just pay the extra fiver? Either way I wholeheartedly disagree with you.

Quoted from GollyGTFC


That’s probably right. It was probably the season after then.

The £24 record stood until I went to AFC Wimbledon last season when it was £25 for adults.

The cherry on the cake of that one was the extra postage that exiles (many living in and around London) paid for what was a QR code on an A4 bit of paper that could have been printed at home/work.

Do we have a drummer this season? A friend of mine is keen to take his to Swindon if he's allowed (he's got a death wish)

i'm 20 mins away by train, not going out of principle.


Good for you! I wouldn't go either. I'm working this Saturday anyway but draw the line at certain prices in EFL2.
