What does everyone think about his rant below? In my opinion, this is the way football has been going for a long time.
Football fans are staying away from games not because of hooliganism but because of extortionate ticket prices, and as a Man Utd season ticket holder im disgusted.
Not long ago, a season ticket meant tickets for all home games including cups. Over the past 10 years, they've brought in the "new" season ticket with which you have to buy cup games separately.
All seater stadia, over zealous stewards and rediculous prices are why attendances are down - and dont forget there is a recession on.
Going to a game is a major outing now - add in travel, food and a couple of beers and its almost a weeks wage.
