Football ticket prices still remain prohibitive, especially for young fans, according to the BBC’s annual Price of Football report.
The majority of football ticket prices have not increased this year. But 82% of young fans say the cost of tickets is an obstacle to them going to more games. And 56% of young fans correctly identify that football is not run in their interests.
Ticket prices are particularly expensive in the Premier League, with 13 of the 20 clubs advertising some tickets for over £50.
This is even more pronounced in London, with all four top-tier clubs selling season tickets for £1,000 or more. Even Fulham, a second-tier Championship team, sells season tickets for £929!
