30 quid a ticket
For me personaly im going to watch it on the box. Went to get Fulham on Saturday went through 150 quid. Went to valencia away. Going to a few more aways and now its time to think about next years season ticket. No pay rise for 3 years and two kids mad on the swans. Add in xmas and birthdays and it's the box for me. 700 quid a season of home tickets, couple of kid shirts and other stuff from shop. Sky sports subscription and the way its going how can a family man keep on justifying spending more and more.


Your moaning about £150 quid to go to Fulham, you went to Valencia £5-600? Yet, you have decided to moan about £30 a ticket to support your boys at home?? You would rather watch on the box :lol: Priceless :laughing5:

Maybe if you had 4 games to support financially with a family in 11 days you to would find it hard,but maybe it's something you'll never experience,while we're on the empty seat subject where's your 28,000 football fanatics at international games.Surely you should be supporting them, after all they're wearing your club colours.


You dozy fool, I travel 360 miles round trip to all of our home games, as I'm a ST holder and do around 10 aways each season. It costs me £100 each home game just on travel and ticket :lol: I wasn't telling your butty that it was'nt expensive but that he was moaning about the cost of going to away games and using it as an excuse to not watch his team at home, in a game that will probably see you qualify for the last 32. You lot keep on going on about how important this competition is blah, blah, blah and then you can't even sell out 20k :laughing6:
And as for wales :lol: and Jacks :lol: We don't even need to go there :thumbup:

WTF :laughing5: Your protesting about how the club have treated you since promotion??? You lot are either smacked up, or off your fecking heads :lol: How many times have you and your mates been on here banging on about how well the club is run, everyone loves us, we are everyones second team the media say all clubs should be run like us :lol: and now your throwing your toys out of the pram because the DVLA have got 400 freebies :lol: You couldn't make it up :laughing5:

You all bang on about how well run you are, yet know you are saying your run amateurish.

Make your mind up.

Youve given hundreds of Free tickets away as well, surely it will now be a full house ?

This is not having a dig, I am asking as your stadium only holds 20,000, so it should be full, European nights are what I honestly miss.


I agree, it should be full. The honest answer, IMO, is down to a number of reasons. We have a lot of fair-weather fans who aren't interested and are more concerned with the Premier League.

More importantly, the club priced the tickets too high. They've completely ballsed up on this one. Spurs have had thousands of empty seats in their home games too. Most clubs do in the Europa League.

Saying all that, it will probably still sell out against Valencia. You can guarantee that it will sell out in the knock-out stages if we get through.


It's unbelievable how many fair weather fans we both have, it's a South Wales thing for sure. We have a wider area if fans so cover it better but it's def a cancer in this area.
