I haven't checked but I assume Swansea, Southampton, Norwich .... all raised prices significantly in their first PL season.
True.
I estimate 3% plus a further increment in the clawback of the travel subsidy. Not sure what that totals as a %age on say a £450 current s/t cost.
I still think fair enough, for a magnificent stadium, good football at times, and to help TB on the operations side.
