Everyone who wants a coach seat will get one.

And for anyone who thinks £33 is expensive, wait until you see what QPR will charge us for our next away game after Bristol City.

For those who care this is what they're charging Preston on the opening day:

Ipswich have normally been expensive, Wednesday can be as well.

£33 away tickets, welcome to the championship 

£27 last time we played them back in 2019

I think it is safe to say that at least half of the games will be a minimum of £30 for away supporters.

You're not wrong. Ipswich are the most expensive i've seen so far.

For their first home game of the season they are charging Southampton £43 in the upper tier and £38 in the lower. Insane prices.

I remember paying 28£ for a shite seat against a pre-Abramovich Chelsea a quarter of a century ago. (And I was a kid; there was no u16 discount).

I also remember paying £20 for a ticket at Crawley a few months ago.

£30/£33 for an away ticket for these sort of games and venues seems good value in that context.

swords_alive

Good value for 90 minutes of football?? I can eat for a week for £30 (at home, drinks not included and limited atmosphere granted)

It’s £26 to watch Barnet, for context.

What will we charge away fans? £27?

paulsturgess

If Crawley are able to get away with charging £20 to stand on a 5 foot bit of concrete watching the ugliest professional football conceivable without even a bar on offer, then Bristol or QPR away for £30 in one of the highest quality football leagues in world football is not a rip off. If anything it’s good value! 

Everything costs an effing fortune now. It’s the situation we live in sadly. A pint regularly costs £7.50/8. Not one to defend football club owners but the entire economy isn’t their responsibility and at this level they’re losing hundreds of grand a week so whilst I wish they were able to serve their communities more philanthropically, they don’t owe us cheap tickets. I’m glad Charlton Athletic are still afloat, let alone in the championship with £10m of new players.

I thought they were capped at £30 but obviously not

Exactly the kind of the thing the new football regulator should and hopefully will bring in

A piss take to consider ANY seats in that end stand as "Gold" seats. I've no idea how they can class some tickets as gold, and some silver in the same stand. That would be like having 2 different prices in the Jimmy Seed

EFL prices are joke and there should be an agreed fixed price across the leagues.

QPR is £39 and arguably one of the worst away stands in the league.

I agree with this. prem clubs can afford this, championship clubs can’t.

Gold are the central blocks of the upper tier, silver are the blocks at either end plus the whole lower tier.

Yeh. That’s too much. Equally; I’d still much rather pay £39 to watch QPR Charlton than £20 to watch Crawley Charlton. Demand will emphatically reinforce that the majority agree. 

The world economy is fucked, the football economy is fucked. I’m not promoting higher ticket prices - but I’m just saying that in the world we live in, it’s a lot of money for 90 minutes football but despite that, 30 odd quid for a ticket just isn’t a rip off.

£35 to get to Bristol picked up from your local town don’t seem to unreasonable to me 

If you get the Larkfield coach you are on it for three days so it’s a bargain

The capping of the away tickets in the Premier League is bull****, all that happens is that the home fans end up paying more for their tickets to make up the shortfall.

As if the PL owners wouldn’t just fleece away fans too. Home tickets aren’t £30 more expensive per seat in 75% of the ground to make up for the shortfall in 25% (or often less!)

This is what would be needed to make it work at championship level, though.

I’m sure Orient away in league one was £34 last season

Are we allowed to reciprocate pricing or is their a limit linked to home fan prices?

certainly is. someone is making a mint there.

Correct me if I’m wrong but is the coach company based around the Margate area? Added costs on to the customer in petrol or diesel plus wages for said drivers travelling up to the pick up stops 

Also the coach to Bristol Rovers last October was £23, so about a 50 per cent increase based on the area travelling to 

Good spot re price for Rovers last season.
Some one is making a good profit.

Never like that when CASC ran the coaches and Trains.

The reality is you can run it for half that and if the club overcharges to that extent someone probably will in the end. 

Watford charged £20 to Bristol City in April and are charging £12 to The Valley.

The Upper Tier of the home end at Loftus Road is also considered a Gold section

I think you have to charge the away fans the same price you are charging home fans in the equivalent stand. So our away prices are the same as Coverend end lower
