Is the bubble about to burst for Premiership sides?

 

Liverpool got a mass protest planned.

 

Both Manchester clubs are struggling to fill their grounds.

 

Arsenal fans up in arms about being charged an extra £20 for Barcelona even if they've got a season ticket.

 

What with all this money being poured in by TV deals surely it's time for a cap on prices.

The big clubs will always have toursists

And some teams like united match day revenue is so small of a percentage that they can carry on as normal with half the ticksts sold

Premier League clubs turn down proposal to cap away tickets at £30... despite making more than £8bn from TV rights
  • Rich Premier League clubs can't agree on way forward to help away fans
  • Clubs spent more time debating issue than any other at London meeting
  • Big clubs vote against proposal to cap tickets for away fans at £30
  • Norwich chairman and former Chancellor Ed Balls present at summi

The richest league in the world received confirmation of their extraordinary £8billion-plus haul from TV rights on Thursday, yet couldn’t agree the way forward to help away fans.

 

The 20 Premier League clubs, despite being awash with money over the next three seasons (£5.1bn domestic and £3bn overseas), spent more time debating the issue of assisting travelling supporters than any other item on the agenda during a five-and-a-half-hour meeting in London.

The big clubs, as usual, were against the sensible proposal to cap away tickets at £30, although Everton spoke loudly in favour.

 

In a secret ballot, seven or eight clubs are understood to have opposed the capping — those led by greedy Arsenal who charge away supporters the most — leaving the Premier League short of the 14-club majority needed to make such changes.

The proposal will be back on the table at the March meeting after clubs voted heavily against the compromise of a funding arrangement where clubs would get money to help travelling supporters which they could use in varied ways.
