Football fans in the UK are being priced out of the grounds.
They're the backbone of the club.
When the shit hits the fan (no pun intended) and all the money men walk away, it's the fans who stump up.
Generations of men,women,boys and girls have worked hard and given so much to football clubs up and down the country, and the interest in the game has never been greater.
But instead of helping out the Fanbase given the current financial hardships of the British economy, most clubs only seek to exploit the hardened supporter.
Protests will take place at several grounds ahead of the premier campaign.
*DONT PRICE US OUT* is the war cry.
Whilst England could only look on in envy as their arch nemisis Germany lifted the Grandest prize in the game, all the heads of the game in the Football association would've been asking themselves "What can we learn from them,What can we do?"
When you hear that some season tickets in Germany cost as little as £100/€90 surely the League can see the foundations of any club is it's Fanbase.
And helping the Fanbase of the club will help the actual club in the long run.
The income that the premier league clubs is far to great to actually comprehend.
Look at how much we will actually get for just one year!!
The monies the clubs are generating shows absolutely no need to charge prices in excess of £60/70 per game.
That's not far off a full seasons viewing in the country of the best national sides top league.
All we can do is hope and pray that the big wigs see the potential damage.
But I fear they only see figures, and revenues.
Will they ever realise that They are killing our own game.
