Manchester United again exploit fans loyalty

Trust Views on FA Cup Ticket Prices

Edited 25 January by Foxes_Trust

[jayfox26]

Ticket prices are a disgrace but unfortunately any kind of boycott will never work, and not just in this game, as there will always be some idiots that will pay any price in some kind of blind loyalty to their football team. All that's happening and will continue to happen is that the average working person in this country won't be able to afford to watch top level football. Only good thing is that non league teams may benefit

Why? Explain how you think we could get the whole Leicester fan base to not turn up at OT? And even if that did happen, how do you expect that to then get transfered across the 19 other prem clubs fan bases? It would never work! 

[Ashley]

Boycott. 

 

Almost £200 for myself and the misses to take our lad that's before travel, food and drink.

 

Get to fvck.

[teblin]

I don’t get to many away games, but was considering this but the price was just crazy.

[Blueman1967]

Not going to the game, went to the league cup game, but that wasn't on TV, nor £51 - 62 ticket

[MattFox]

LCFC have to agree to prices being a cup game

 

Dont let them off the hook 

[Xen]

I live in Manchester, possibly the easiest away fixture i could possibly go to. But not even going to consider it at those prices. Ridiculous.

[AKCJ]

Never mind going to the game... I would say there's a good chance I don't bother watching it at home.

[The boy Linacre]

Borderline to go as Friday night, B team, live terrestrial TV & we’ll lose.

But when it’s borderline and the pricing is a wind up, well that swings non attendance

Already been screwed over on our season tickets to watch turgid performances every week. Why would we part with more money?

 

At this point, we should be being paid to go to the games it’s that bad.

 

and the emails about match day experience are a joke, the management are deluded. Do they not realise that the only thing about the match day experience that matters is the performance on the pitch?

[FoxesTez]

Very rarely miss a game but not a chance I’m paying those prices. 
 

@Foxes_Trust let’s see the same energy towards our own club for the matchday ticket prices as well though please.

Home team sets prices. Away team have no say in Cup matches.  You can’t blame City for everything.

[Skidmark]

Noticed those ticket prices the other day. 

 

Complete disgrace, but this is a precedent set by the FA. There should be a cap regardless for FA cup tickets across the competition from top to bottom, and the revenue generated should be sent straight to grassroots. 

 

It's the people's cup, stop letting greedy clubs set the prices. 

[sylofox]

A boycott won't work by us.

 

Other fans will just say we've not travelled because we are shite and expect a pasting.

[Foxes1]

I'm priority one but boycotting it, may have gone on Saturday if it was played then but not at those prices

The club should refund us.

who cares what other fans say.

 

Itl sends a message either against the prices or how things are going on the pitch.

[Foxdiamond]

It could be described as a way of Manchester United discouraging  away support let alone a rip off. That they say they need the revenue while paying ridiculous wages to players is laughable

[moore_94]

Was going to go

 

Sacked it off as soon as I saw the ticket prices

I second that. Absolutely disgraceful price.

My mate has got me access to the Treble Lounge corporate fine dining and all you drink champagne from 5pm. I’ll get really pissed and probably not enjoy it as much as I would had I paid £50, but it’ll be an experience. But that’s what football is being increasingly aimed at - those looking for an experience. The occasional fan, the tourist or the super rich.
 

It all just feeds into being ever more disconnected from football. It’s all bullshit and a far cry from when I was introduced to double decker in 91-92. I read recently that Villa have recently done away with 2k season tickets so they can exploit tourist prices. 
 

Perhaps you wouldn’t mind as much if the PL shared the wealth down the pyramid but they don’t even do that. It’s all money grabbing and less about nurturing our national game.
 

I realise the irony of me saying this btw given what I’ve said at the beginning.

[Raj]

Anyone going to this is either a ****ing idiot or a ****ing idiot.

 

Dont give me any of that supporting the boys bo11ox, get a backbone

 

[Corky]

Never going to be a full boycott but the allocation has been reduced, hasn't it? That is a positive step.
