    looked at this, is it worth the 33 quid it will cost just to guarantee getting in? is it only way to get in

    Paying just to set foot in for the privilege of buying overpriced food n drink.

    Are you talking about Boxpark or football clubs around the world?

    Food isn't overpriced at all. Drinks are standard for London. Not sure it'll be the same for a club final vs. an England game, but for England I'm in there every game.

    I don't agree with the entry fee, I think that's too far. I have no doubt they have great food, drink, atmosphere etc but with the cost of the day - travel, a ticket to the game, potentially accomodation, drinks, other food costs - I think it's excessive to add this additional entry fee. It puts me off to be honest. If you go after 12 is it free, and if so are the queues likely to be crazy? I'm just after a bit of pre-match pizza but ain't spending a needless tenner (x2, me and ar lass) for the privilege :)

    Some people will want to be in there from 10:30am though, a guaranteed table or group booking, loads of choice food wise, and really quick service. Makes sense for some. Doesn't make sense for others.

    I get thinking £10 is too much. I don't think it will be that insane though to be honest. When it's an England game every supporter has a chance of going in (80,000), but for this one it's only 30,000 and not all of them will know about or care.

    Free from 12pm I think.

    Thanks mate, and I get that some will want to take advantage and get there early. I just think the tenner each takes advantage of those people, but I get it's business etc. I think I'll probably get there 12.30ish and see what the crack is.

    £11 entry fee - it’s only the cost of a pint, what’s the drama

    There wasn't last year. We had a brilliant time there, cracking atmosphere.

    Is that true? Is it just gnats water there or do they have variety, summat other than lager? Even doombar will do me.

    Stupid question alert: what is Boxpark? Is it just a large pub?
