Charlie Wayman Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 Take a look at how much we are paying to watch every league goal at home, long suffering hardly describes it... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41914171 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkeith Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 I've paid €24 to see Bordeaux v Marseille on Sunday, and as it was paired with the Rennes game, I paid another €3 to see that match. Unfortunately, Bordeaux are about as entertaining as we are at the moment. I've also bought tickets for the league cup final, which is in Bordeaux this season for €35. That is in more expensive seats than I normally choose becuase the ends have been allocated for the finallists. Fans in the UK are being robbed blind.

I wander over to see Bordeaux play too, from time to time. They are a bit sh1t but as you say the ticket prices are a lot cheaper then in the UK. This goes Europe wide, but if people are mug enough to pay ridiculous UK prices you can't blame clubs for charging it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFKA South Woodford Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 A couple of seasons ago I paid €10 to go and see Sporting Lisbon vs Braga. I had a great seat high up in the stand at the side of the pitch, half way between the half way line and penalty area and saw Sporting win 4-2. An absolute steal at that price. Although there was rather a lot of second hand smoke to deal with, as they haven't banned smoking in the stadiums in Portugal yet. Lisbon is a great city too, especially when it was November & the temperature was still @20 degrees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 everytime the club put on social media the training videos of how great our strikers are, everyone should just reply with that chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toon Saint Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 Coupled with costs getting to games from London this is pretty much why I haven’t renewed my S/T. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tickets will help to pay for it. https://southamptonfc.com/news/2016-07-21/long-signs-new-four-year-saints-contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 £31 a goal The worst in the league by some way.... But according to some on here.... Puel was the saviour?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 The fact we have the fifth most expensive season ticket in the league is ridiculous enough as it is - let alone the fact that we are, statistically, the worst value for money in the league given our goalscoring woes. Les and team should look at that and be embarrassed but, as others have said, whilst the fans keep coming nothing will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooney Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 How times have changed. When my Dad took me to see Boscombe at Dean Court in the 1950's it was 1/3d for him and 9d for me to go in. He could not afford to buy me any pies or programmes and we had to cycle from Oakdale in Poole and back. We used to race a neighbour, who also cycled, on the way home and often braved the rain to know that mother would have winkles ready for tea. Magic.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 (edited) As I'm no longer a season ticket holder, I now get to about 10 games a season. I've not seen us score at St Mary's since Feb 4th when Gabbi scored vs West Ham (excluding the Cup Final at Wembley) and I've not seen us win since we beat Boro on 10th Dec 2016! I reckon I've spent about £250 going to League games since I last saw Saints score, which is pretty f*cking dire by anyone's standards. If Les said "give me an extra £31.82 & I'll guarantee you a goal at the next game you go to", I'd snap his hand off...

James Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 One of my friends has a season ticket but hasn't seen us score for 7 months. In the last 13 home games, we've scored in 4 of them. He's only seen those where we've drawn blanks at a cost of over £500 on tickets and train fares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 16 November, 2017 Share Posted 16 November, 2017 £31 a goal I'm sure there was a chap on here not so long back who, having missed a couple of games on his ST (including the 3-1 win over Palace) paid about £53 per goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
