Fair play to Reading I hope other clubs besides the ones below are reciprocal as well.


Reading just tweeted to say they wrote to all 23 Championship clubs to propose reciprocal £20 tickets for away fans.

Blackburn, Cardiff, Huddersfield have taken them up on it so far.

It's a shame because football should be available to everyone but unfortunately it's not these days, not even on the TV .
Yeah like all things in life, there's alternatives.
 - cheaper restaurants
 - cheaper concerts
 - cheaper football

If people want football, and only want to pay €20, there are alternatives. If people want to see Liverpool/Untied, you're going to be charged for the name and privilege. Same with Christy Moore and Tasting Menus.

The ones I feel sorry for are the local Liverpool etc fans who have been ST holders for 40 years, basically got a habit when ST's were £100 and now are being charged £1000. Clubs should do more to keep the long term holders. You need some locals to avoid Anfield etc turning into a crowd of Norwegian/Chinese/Irish tourists.

Just an FYI, the most expensive season tickets are £860 - Cheapest are £685.
Most of the long term season tickets holders locally still go. Most of the new season tickets when the new stand are local (the likes of me apart). And a portion of general sale tickets for every game are reserved for people with an "L" postcode. 
I point that out not to defend the club, just to make you aware: A lot of these things are down to the efforts of Spirit of Shankly, Spion Kop 1906 etc. 
Definitely agree that the local ethos needs to be preserved at all costs and, as always, more can be done. 

An am all for local football - Great day out in most cases.

Lots of top clubs always had fans from abroad, lads who went from Dublin to Liverpool/Manchester/Leeds/Glasgow for every home game paying same prices as locals and many had season tickets. Football in England changed after euro 96 when it became part of the 'event' circuit, and was stolen from the working classes.

More clubs should be operating schemes like Charlton did on Saturday.  


Charlton supporters can play their part in helping to #FillTheValley for the upcoming Sky Bet League One fixture against Plymouth Argyle with season-ticket holders able to claim up to three FREE tickets to bring along friends or family.
