Popular Post Silkstone Owl Posted October 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2020 £15 is a joke - nothing more than to line their own pockets when players and agents are earning wages which quite frankly are absolutely disgusting and do nothing more than to widen the economic disparity in this country Who in their right mind is actually going to pay that given what’s going on at the moment Boycott em It’s a Poison Chalice 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaping Lannys Perm Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Bloody hypocrits, especially Winter. Where was their outrage when every single EFL game, with maybe two exception a weekend out of 36 games, were made PPV only? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) I'd definitely pay £15+ (or £100 days out sometimes if its an awayday) for a few overpriced beers and jagers with friends before the match on a saturday but sat at home in the quiet dullness and paying through the nose to watch 90 minutes on a screen is poo . Can't wait to get back to a game. Edited October 9, 2020 by TheEnchanter 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't pay a penny to watch a game of football in which Wednesday weren't taking part, but as much as I think the £10 being charged to watch each match on ifollow is too steep, I've paid it for each of our league games thus far and probably will for the majority of our games this season. Fans will want to watch their team whenever possible. Even if the price seems unreasonable, many of us will pay it. We're addicts, aren't we? ifollow know this, as do BT and Sky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does seem a bit strange that they are so outraged at fans having to pay £15 for a match in what these journalists regularly describe as 'the best league in the world', but when we are charged £10 for second division football it passes by without so much of a word.

For me, £10 or even £15 per game to watch a match I want to see is a reasonable price. Compare that to what you pay for a match day ticket, fuel, a bere’s pork sandwich and a bovril. I would only pay it for games I want to see, and agree with you that I wouldn’t pay to watch any other team but wednesday. Anyone thinking it’s not a fair price doesn’t have to pay it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis Rimmer Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Will they put less PL games on Sky now? I can see it, Liverpool-City hasn't been picked for Super Sunday this week...you can find it on box office though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see many takers personally apart from the pubs. I wouldn't pay for it myself but I would go and have a few pints with the lads to watch, if the government gets a grip and we can of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky tried PPV many years ago. It was quickly scrapped due to low take up. Times change, but I think there’s less appetite for PPV just now, not more.

prowl Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 If you pay £15 it will get dearer. Refuse and the price will drop to a level that maximises profit. Fans will decide what that is, same with shirts. Refuse to buy and they get discounted. It's simply business. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching at home on TV doesn't compare to a proper matchday experience in my opinion, but the £10 clearly can't be too extortionate, as I'm willingly paying it. Having said that, when I think that it will cost £460 if I watch every game of the season on TV, then I'm going to need to be a bit more selective and settle for the audio-only option at some point!

We all need to remember that the £10 for Champ games and £15 for Prem games is just the opening prices Guaranteed they'll go up the second they think they can get away with it 3 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
