I blame Jed for our pie prices being the most expensive.
Maybe they contain Misun - that would explain a few things.

They must taste fantastic and be the size of dinner plates at that price  |

This will be interesting on the plastic debate - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-23723537I think I went to around 8 games last season and I averaged my flight/train ticket to get to England. My total was £1,800 |

Comment under one of the BBC articles amused me I stopped going when prices hit £20 for a match day ticket - I decided that paying for players over inflated wages was not in my principles!
Also, the grounds are always cold and it just became a waste of my time and money. Such are the perils of watching outdoor sport, what the fuck does he expect - central heated stadiums? |

Some stadiums are silly cold though. Port Vale away is the coldest I've ever felt, excruciatingly worse than -25°C.

For me it was away at Tranmere on Feb 22nd 2002 a dull 0-0 draw in the fog then the snow at -3 temp all game with a wind chill of around -10 with the strong wind blowing off the Mersey....fucking horrible. |

Notts County away, the game Kingy came back. My left knee has never been colder and I kept having to check my feet were still there

Were you wearing those jeans with the deliberate tear in the knee, or perhaps a kilt?  |

this "survey" is extremely floored. I noticed in the comments section on the bbc that I sheffield utd fan put that the £20 ticket was for a category D match and that this season there is only 1! I think we should go back to category tickets, especially in this league where there is such a contrast between teams. wolves or carlisle, which is going to tempt the fans out at £25 a time
