27 quid for an adult

We must charge close to this?
Ā£21 for an adult in the home end. I might be wrong but I assumed away fans would pay the same price.
Getting on for 30 quid a ticket in anything less the Championship is a robbery.

The EFL ticketing rules say that away fans canāt be charged more than home fans for comparable/inferior accommodation.
Crewe charge Ā£27 for their main stand on the other side of the pitch so I guess thatās where they get that figure from for our tickets.
However, a) Iād say that the main stand is better accommodation than the stand they give us, b) thatās the matchday price - only Ā£23 if bought in advance (and the EFL rules imply that such discounts for home fans should be given to away fans too).

If thatās the EFL ruling then I canāt understand how they can justify those prices and how theyāre even allowed to charge them.

Probably get a reply by pigeon sometime after the game has been played.
Did I say that? Ah well, Iāve got nothing against the bloke, but Walsall gallows humour will never die.

Not being funny but we are charging more to our own fans if they pay on the day in some stands anything over 20 quid is too much for me for league 2 football though

This happened to me a couple of years ago and although I still didnāt get an answer (just a reply), whilst he was next to useless, to be fair to him, it wasnāt entirely his fault. The matter was concluded by me telling him to forget it as the match had passed.
Suggest you use the generic term āIāll message the SLOā, otherwise people are going to come to their own conclusion as to what āXā means here.

Fair play. Heās come back and confirmed that the Ā£23 quoted is for their members and not an advanced price.
Hmm. Sounds like a con to fleece away fans.
And itās Ā£27 for their stanchionless, high-raked, high-roofed stand, while the away side has restricted views due to stanchions and a low roof. No way are they comparable accommodation so they shouldnāt be charging the same price even if they can get away with the āmembers onlyā discount.
BTW It was only Ā£25 last season.

To be fair, we do the same by charging away fans more than the lower tier donāt we? Ā£27 is a ridiculous price though.

Yep, I made that point to Graham on X. Not his fault but hope he raises it with his counterparts when we play there. The other point I made was around facilities. The bogs and the kiosks distinctly second rate compared to the ācomparableā stand.

Crewe tickets selling well considering the price and still over 2 weeks away. Got my 4 yesterday.

Quite superb support and some really healthy travelling audiences. Can see Crewe going past four figures especially if we start well.
