There is an interesting BBC report on the cost of watching football.

It seems in terms of CCFC the cost is about mid table - only hope the team is by the end of the season!!

The thing is though, most of the other teams probably get a huge % of the profits from food and tea

yep thats probably true Nick ...... or they franchise the food operation out and just take a fee

Apparently at Arsenal a pie is FOUR POUNDS.

Not sure some of our players are even on that a week.

To be fair, we can't even afford to pay them in pies now...

erm, anyway, I was surprised that I had to pay £30 for my ticket to the Blues game, but the prices suggested seem to correspond!

Remember hearing an ad on Talksport the other day (turned 5live off in protest of F1, soon wish i hadn't). West ham were offering "amazing value" season tickets, something stupid like £500. Couldn't believe they were even trying to get away with it.
