At stoke yday and saints today ? Getting to expensive ? It's getting so much easier to watch it on sky or Internet these days. If we stay up ( I think we will no probs ) will our attendances decline after a few years ??

And Reading in the championship. Prices are killing the game, its good to see empty seats, perhaps the clubs then will reduce players wages and drop ticket prices.

To be honest players wages make me sick at the moment,most of them are just greedy beyond :roll: :evil:

The leagues and clubs are well behind with what's acceptable.

With revenues from astonishing TV deals,the prices should be fair and affordable.

We could learn a lot from Ze Germanz

i agree the new tv deal starts this season and it was a good chance for the premier clubs to reduce prices,but they won't.

Plenty at Hull too.

21900 crowd.

2nd home Prem game. 1st one had a disappointing crowd as well.

The rot has began
Football is eating itself.
The audacity of the money in the game when many in our country are living hand to mouth.

It will only change if english fans want their country to do well. Perhaps we can have wage caps and player quotas then to help our national sides too.

other than this, it will be a TV sport in under capcity stadiums. the fans 'punters' are either getting wise or just giving up
Went to hull yesterday, great atmosphere , watch MOTD this morning and crowds seemed subdued, (premier games seemed like championship- not really exeptional football) (apart from Palace and geordies making an effort)

Mad foreign owners like tan making a mockery out of clubs, fans and communities.

Arrogant capitalism in a working class sport......
