It's really quite easy.

Don't if you don't want to. Nobody is forcing anyone to pay for season tickets, but we do.

p.s. I would wager the clubs you listed have massive sponsoship deals being as they play in the top leagues of their respective countries and often play in the Champions League, we've heard of them, I doubt they've ever heard of Brighton and Hove Albion.

We are an Island and even though we make/assemble cars in this country that use the petrol,the very raw materials to make the cars and so forth all have to be imported via in the main,the sea...

What that has to do with footballers wages however is another question.

If admission prices had kept pace with inflation the 30p entrance in 1970 would now be a massive £4.30p

Shirley that Obika bicycle kick and Ulloa penalty was worth 500 of anyone's notes last season?

After forking out around €130 per ticket for a match at Barcelona (equivalent of west lower, half way line) I would assume the £103 season ticket seats are right up in the nosebleeds where Messi would look like an ant!

I'd rather see a MESSI ANT than an GOLIATH looking OGRADY

When considering those season ticket prices you need to remember to add the £120-140 a year it costs to be a member of those clubs.

Also factor in the cost of a good, serviceable pair of binoculars which will be essential for anyone wishing to see any on-field action from a seat at the Camp Nou or Bernabeu which comes at the price shown above.

So not quite as good a deal as it might appear.

Using your conversion factor, a 1st Division player in 1970, earning the average of £70/week would now be earning a MASSIVE £1000/week. Therefore a £20/match season ticket equates to just under £5000/week average player wage. How many of our players earn over this?

When you put it like that it does tend to leave a slightly bitter taste in the mouth....
