In England, up to one in four season ticket holders of Premier League clubs are considering not renewing for next season in a bid to cut costs, according to survey published today.
The Virgin Money Football Fans’ Inflation Index shows 25% of season ticket holders are thinking of giving up at the end of the season, with 4% planning on no longer going to any games while 21% intend to buy tickets when it suits them.
Malcolm Clarke, chairman of the Football Supporters’ Federation, said “At many clubs there’s little or no recognition of loyalty in the prices charged compared with buying match by match. Prices for essentials like food, rent, transport and petrol are going up and football fans like everybody else are struggling with frozen or declining pay and unemployment. Clubs need to bear this in mind when setting next season’s prices.”
With this in mind, and what many Dons fans will see as sub-par performance on-field this season, will you be renewing your season ticket? Take part in our poll on the right of your screen and leave your comments below.
