Poor Man Utd fans

Those poor Manchester United fans, being made to pay 45quid to get into Fulham’s ground last weekend when Bolton fans only paid 25quid. Three observations here

(1) it’s a demand and supply thing. If more Man U fans want to travel than there is space then prices go up.

(2) In a football world far, far away Man U were one of those teams that pushed to keep all home receipts for league games. They contributed to the deep divide we see today in English football and the way teams look for quick cash and allow themselves to be taken over by foreign investors.

(3) Most of the Man U supporters probably live in London anyway so they saved on travel costs!!

Well done Fulham!
