andylivi1 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 The annual cost of football report is out, have a look see what you think. Most striking thing for me was how much more Airdrie are charging for season tickets than anyone else in our league. Surprisingly Livi one of the cheapest patg and pies etc, granted the price of a cup of tea is ridiculous as is parking although that's not shown on this report. http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37953195 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Yet again, our numbers are wrong. Cheapest adult ticket you can get is £15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Oracle Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Should cost more to watch the mighty Airdrie tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 £2.30 for a fucking cup of tea at Queen's Park. The same price as a pie. Assuming they have the same profit margins on both items, it must either be the world's finest tea leaves served in a bone china cup by a butler, or abattoir floor sweepings in a bit of a pastry.

LIVIFOREVER Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Was cheap getting into our QP game but I got stung for a steak pie and Bovril, cost me more for the steak pie than it did to get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Looks like they've got the pricing right in Northern Ireland. Dearest ticket £10, cheapest ticket £10. The product on show is probably quite similar to this level. There is a reason Stranraer have one of the cheapest pies in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye it's pish. Hampden caterers contracted through SFA and unfortunately they have the rights for all events at the ground. Best boycotted. It's hard when you have hungry weans with you but they've been telt there will be no more £5 burgers getting bought for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised Desieboy1 hasn't got a pakora shack set up in the concourse. I know who I'd rather give my dosh to. Pie pirates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mouth is watering at the thought of the chicken pakora that you used to get at Firs Park - the only near rival to the outstanding steak and black pudding pies at Arbroath. The pie and chips at Stranraer for £2.50 was excellent though. In general, I reckon QP have got it right re admittance - you can't complain at £12 for adults and £2 for concessions (parent and child is even better at £1 for the sprogs, I think) but the pie stall prices are horrendous. Charging £15 or £16 for watching this level of football is simply too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Surprised at the PaTG prices of the League Two clubs, didn't think they'd charge more than a tenner, but several of them charge more than some League One sides and their cheapest is the same as the cheapest League One clubs.. £16 is a piss take for League One games though, as is 20 and above for the Championship. Clubs coming down from the Premiership don't want to accept they're in the diddy league now and still charge Premiership prices, Alloa is doing the same in League One thinking they're still in the Championship and feck knows what Airdrie thinks.

Although G4S diddies confiscating their wee Ribena bottles still needs fixing.

Don't know what Montrose are on for their 'highest' season ticket. That's about the right price for Mo and Lichties together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
