Great idea this to put a cap on tickets for away fans just hope its not just for the premiership though and its across the board for all leagues. - view external link

West ham charging up to £70 for a ticket for a game. Have been to west ham when we played them last time in the championship. Did not pay that for our wembley tickets and Upton park is no Wembley - view external link

My argument on this is simple - market forces.
If people are prepared to pay it they will charge it.
I won't be going to Leeds at £36. Others will go.

It's obviously a nice idea but in reality it's only fans saying "we'd rather pay £20 than £62"
There's no scheme to bring this in.
The only lever the fans have is to not attend the rip-off away games.
For the much publicised Arsenal v Man City game
2100 fans went out of an allocation of 3000.
At £62 per head they paid £130,200.
If the full 3000 tickets were sold at £20 Arsenal would have got £60,000.
If fans will pay up the clubs will charge what they like.

Sigh...thought it was a typo...big fish story
