Yeah the points for ST was a bit excessive

Being a ST holder myself i can understand the frustration but with regards to away games. Myself and my father would only attend the away games nearby us if it was feasible and as far as i know he never had trouble getting tickets for them.

Home games on occasion he would pick up an additional ticket in south stand if we had a family member coming.

It's not cheap being a football fan but this is the premier league.

Demand will always outstrip supply and if we drop down i'd expect the memberships to halve and tickets will be more plentiful.
