FSA: Fan protests over ticket pricing planned for next fortnight

SUPPORTER protests over Premier League ticket pricing are planned over the next two weekends, the Football Supporters’ Association has said.

The FSA said fan groups would meet ahead of the next two rounds of games, which have been designated as an opportunity to support the #StopExploitingLoyalty campaign.

Nineteen out of 20 clubs have raised ticket prices this season, the FSA said, with only Crystal Palace tickets frozen.

Information gathered by the FSA’s member supporter groups suggest an average rise of 7 per cent, but this masks some even more extreme hikes around concessionary tickets.

The FSA said Nottingham Forest had increased prices by 20 per cent, and found an 18-year-old could see the price of their season ticket jumping from £190 to £850.

Tottenham and West Ham fans protested side by side last weekend over their respective clubs’ pricing.

Spurs fans pointed out the £3 million raised from removing senior concessions was equal to the bonus paid to executive chairman Daniel Levy each year, while Hammers United say the club were “gaslighting” fans by insisting that unless they pay more, the club cannot compete.
