    Half empty ground at St Andrews apparently. Another thing on the same subject- if our replay against Southend costs 1p above £10 I will not be attending. Personally I think a tenner is a touch steep to watch the crap we are currently churning out. £5 for juveniles/oap and £8 for adult ST holders and £10 for adults would suffice.

    £15 is the minimum it'll be

    As set in the competition rules - any game from the 3rd round onwards must have a minimum admission fee of £15 for non-concessionary tickets.

    I notice how the Lineker glossed over his comments.

    Not good news for players if VFM were a requisite for setting ticket prices.

    I thought the same....

    Good on Steve Bruce for mentioning it. Football was once a working class game. Not anymore.Most players are in it for the money now, their love of the sport comes second.
