Exglasgowasc Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Long since chucked the SSC and not been at an away match since Malta a couple of years ago I thought ok nice night and I could make it along tonight so i looked at the SFA site and thought I'll buy a ticket. Not a chance. £30 for the West Stand for a friendly. Seriously??? I know it's cheaper for SSC members and there are various deals etc, but with the blatant corruption going on with regards to dodgy decisions and appeals etc this season so far how the hell do they hope to attract punters to come along on a whim at these prices??? Just reaffirms one of my reasons to chuck it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A gig could potentially let you see 4-5 bands for 4-5 hours of entertainment and if you’re a fan, you know exactly what you’re paying for. Completely wrong scenario to compare.

Scotland Ever More Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Yet we sold out Celtic park at nearly double the price for a friendly a few years ago. 20 quid would have been fairer but hey ho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Pricing is wrong and cannot blame folk who decide not to go tonight because of it. Only going myself as getting a free ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 20 quid for our tickets for the west stand on Monday night seems OK to me , but I might not be saying that after the game . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Friday was seeing the 3rd best team in the World. Live. In the flesh. Ticket price was totally worth it. Sky Sports on tv has messed with peoples heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ticket price was totally worth it. Sky Sports on tv has messed with peoples heads. It's about time Sky's influence was called into question - especially at Hampden Park. Last night was against the third best team in the world. Cracking players them all. And the attendance on a Friday night was 20,000. I am no marketing guru, but I know a few basics. And for that kind of fixture, if 40,000 was not achieved there are two questions: 1) Was it priced properly and 2} Was the fixture ever attractive to the public in the first place.

I went to Pittodrie with the 2nd shitest view from an away section in the league and it cost me £26 last weekend. Football in this country is too expensive, £20 should be the max price for any game. Obviously the old firm will want to charge each other £50 but just make a rule up for them. We do with everything else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to see Lukaku, Hazard and Dembele gliding around the park. I'd rather pay to watch a game we might actually win. Folk that are always wanting to watch the biggest and best play us are for the watching. More of a football fan than a Scotland fan. The last point isn't a dig at you, more at modern football culture. Edited September 10, 2018 by Tartan_McCole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
