    Much as it's going to kill me being within earshot of our game there, for me the cost is too high. Enough is enough. I'm thinking of doing all the pre match, but then boycotting the game. It's time to make a stand. (I also think some of our pricing is too high, but £70 for me and my daughter is just a step to far,

    Oh, and this is what they think of it all....

    Haven’t they got some lovely fans. I especially like the ones too simple to work out their own club is seeing their own fans off with high tickets prices,

    Banging on about crowds. They're not even the best supported team in Sheffield!

    Swillsboro has always been sky high in cost. Premium prices to watch non top flight football in an ancient deathtrap isn't justified. Thats why their away end isnt 'sold out'. No matter how much they oink about it.

    Well the usual idiots aside a lot of them remember that we charge them the same sort of prices. I hate this repricoal pricing nonsense, I for one think it disgusting we charge it back and punish football fans of both clubs.

    One question. On our ticket news article it says “Barnsley Football Club offer reciprocal pricing, as close as our declared categories allow.”. So does that mean, as I assume sheff wed is cat A, we were going to charge them our cheapest home ticket price anyway for cat A? I assume that’s over 30 quid?

    It very rare for me to be able to take Saturdays off work, but I can make this. I agree with the protest, but I'm going to take the opportunity to go.

    Far too much money for a game of football at a *****-stack of a stadium. I probably wouldn't have gone anyway due to our horrendous luck there but the price was the final straw for me.

    I wouldn't go, not because of the price (way too much I think) but because of the odious fans, I've had a number of unpleasant incidents there, more than any other away trip. Also a few at Oakwell, 3rd division game in about 1979 comes to mind.
