    Who isn't going on Saturday due to the price of tickets?

    I know a few said they wouldn't.

    Is it £32? It's more the early kick off for me but to an extent the price too. £32 and a 3pm kick off I'd have probably tried to go. £25 and an early kick off and yeah probably. But with both? It's a no from me. Wokring anyway now.

    Paying £64 for me and the misses to go is definitely too much for 90 minutes of entertainment. I think I'll just listen to the radio as usual. Only went to the Rotherham game for the same reason last season. The rest of the derbies are jsut too overpriced. How can they be more expensive than away games in the EPL? It makes no sense at all.

    Me. £30 is enough. In fact it's too much but that's my limit.

    I've excluded myself from any match over £25. I can afford it but it's a point of principle. It's nearer for me than Oakwell and I've never seen us play there but not while they're charging silly prices.

    The early KO and price have both put me off. A reasonable price and normal kick off time and I'd probably have gone. Besides, with a little holiday coming up soon with our newborn, I have many better uses for the money.

    Not paying that, especially to sit in a ***** lower tier at that morally bankrupt shithole of a club. My Blunt supporting workmate's ears have been ringing for weeks now from the abuse Of that club that I spout to him.

    As soon as Master Bates upped the price at Leeds quite a few years back, I decided there and then that enough was enough. I set my limit at under £30 and haven't paid that since. Hence, apart from the odd freebie with work, I've not been to Brammall Lane, Hillsborough or Elland Road for years.

    Like to have a few beers before the game but the police seemed to be intent on ruining the day for everyone last time so got no desire to go there again.

    I'm getting a freebie and going in one of the private boxes, just train tickets to sort now, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

    Been past two times early kick off, 32 quid to sit in the lower tier with a **** view not this year for me. I said 30 quid is my limit but it's not the extra 2 quid its more the **** view and the early kick off and it's a ground I've visited plenty.

    In theory it shouldn't be £37 for them should it, if we truly have a reciprocal pricing policy. It didn't stop us charging Newcastle and Villa fans more than ours were last season though.
