    While ever fans keep on paying extortionate prices for tickets, food, merchandising, etc then clubs will keep ripping them off.

    £43 to see a Wednesday team which would put Barcelona to shame is cheap.

    And, besides, there are four billion loyal, massive Owls locked out. Every home game between now and the end of the universe is already sold out.

    Didn't Sheffield Wednesday contribute to the financial problems of the Co-op bank. How many millions were written off, to stop the pigs being would up. It angered me that the Nat West put us into admin for 2.8 million and that lot got away with "murder".

    Easier said than done when you love the football club

    If the same happened at oakwell people would pay it . A lot wouldn't buy only because they couldn't afford it not the fact they don't want to attend because of the price .

    Just over 19,000 at the sty...the two teams bang in form would normally expect 25,000 plus easily.

    I believe many Derby fans were boycotting the game...would be interested to know how many attended seeing how they took well over 3 thou. to a night match at Hull that was also live on Sky.

    That is exactly what owners play on - they know that a lot of fans will be royally taken for fools. How far does love of the club stretch or as fans do we have a responsibility to do something about it? Short term pain, long term gain.

    That's why I have switched to grass routes football. Entrance, pie, coffee and half time draw £10 bargain nip. I refuse to pay these silly prices to watch more often than not boring football. It an only going to get worst.
