Irons have most expensive junior away tickets

ticketqueueWest Ham has the most expensive away tickets for young people despite boasting affordable family football for home West Ham fans.

The club has  heavily promoted affordable football with under 16 season tickets sold for £99 and adult season tickets as cheap as £289.

Over ten thousand junior season tickets were sold for the London Stadium and that increases to twenty five thousand family season ticket holders when you include the accompanying adults we are often proudly told by the club.

However some away supporters have complained that the London Stadium is the most expensive club to bring children this season after the Premier League introduced a £30 ticket cap for the nest three years.

london-stadium-fansWhile West Ham charge the capped £30 for adult away tickets they only reduce concessions by a further fiver including disabled fans, the over sixty fives and children/young adults all of which are all asked to part with £25 to visit Stratford.

Liverpool charge visiting under 16 fans just £9 to go to Anfield. Man United, Sunderland, Watford and Leicester City all ask for a tenner while Southampton charge £12 to visiting youngsters and only charge adults a subsidised £20 to come to St Mary’s stadium.

  1. I don’t see what the problem is, they have £99 season ticket, that’s just over a fiver a game at home to see our World Class stadium, hopefully before long the real team will turn up and play and they can see them also COYI !!!

  2. It is the visiting away fans which are charged more, not ours. Our away junior fans can get a £9 ticket for Anfield or a tenner for a number of other grounds.

  3. I take my sprogs to away matches sometimes & yeah the ticket prices are very good at most clubs.We seem to have many more fans want to travel away in the last season & a bit.They were nowhere to be seen during Allardyces time in charge because theyg couldn’t be bothered to watch his tripe.Now all of a sudden they are all over away trips 😛
