|

payetThe Upton Park turnstiles will be open this afternoon and we understand that around 12,000 tickets have been sold for this afternoon’s pre-season friendly against Werder Bremen.

Tickets for the Betway Cup aclash will be available on the turnstiles, with tickets priced at just £25 for Adults and £15 Under-16s.

New signings Dimitri Payet and Angelo Ogbonna are expected to feature, while Carl Jenkinson and Manuel Lanzini could have their first Boleyn Ground run-outs

West Ham kick-off the league season with a trip to Arsenal the following weekend and the new manager will be keen for his first-team players to gain valuable match-time when they host Werder at 3pm.

    Over priced for uninteresting,glamorous fixture.
    Should of been kids for a quid and £15 Adults.
    I know this was competing against the Astra game but short sighted by the board.
    Could of got another 15,000 if prices were right.

    Thats very expensive for a friendly .. no ticket should cost more than £15 in the main stand and £10 behind the goals.

    Yes it is too much when you consider people were having to pay not only for tickets,though cheap,thursday but travel costs as well for many.Then to ask £25 for a friendly 3 days later is stupid imo.
