Home fans are being charged the same price.

It’s not received much publicity but Sheff Utd have slightly copied Wednesday high price policy but not quite as bad.

What I mean is the SU pay on the day prices are one of the highest in the league. However the season ticket prices are reasonable priced.

So buying a ST to watch SU becomes a no brainer, hence 23K were sold this year. This guarantees at worse an excellent 26K average attendance.

I always miss about 6 home games a season so it’s normally not financially viable to buy a season ticket, however due to the pricing difference even if I miss 6 home games a season paying up from for a ST is still a relative bargain for home fans. So I’m kind of forced to buy a ST meaning our support remains high.

Also the away end at Sheff Utd is quite small holding 2.5K, so we can afford to deter some away fans with slightly higher prices.
