Looking at this I feel sad being Arsenal's fans, no offense but if you charge that much, at least give them something to cheer for once every 2 years or something...

Isn't this kinda ironic? Arsenal fans paying most and still club don't buy anyone..

Well I'm with this 100% but again, the owners will think about it like this; you go to the cinema to watch and enjoy a movie, but you can't watch it in the Cinema for free. As for reducing prices, the only way this will work is if no one pay for the tickets and the stadium is empty of fans, otherwise it will never happen because let's be honest there will always be someone to buy those tickets even at 100 pounds.

I agree with Alex. Sadly the only way to actually force a price change would be for no one to show up, which will never happen.
As long as the owners know they can fill the stadium, those prices aren't going to fall anytime soon, in fact, they'll keep steadily rising.

They know they can get away with it. Football in England is catered for tourists and not the average local which is sad.

Its kinda pathetic asking so much money from football fans for ANY club.
Foreign owners just destroy slowly football

If every seat was empty for one matchweek, that would be epic. But there's always that one guy who decides to be special.

Fully support this ! If fans decided to protest it, it should last till they get what they want. Then the owners will see their fault. But if you protest today and then if you buy a ticket for next game; that would be useless. This should go all the way.

There is no strong leadership in this movement because some rival fans don't get along even for good campaign .
Already tired of it every year we show outrage but nothing changes. just like 2wolfie said they can get away with it .
I think there is a second way to do it , it is massive protest near stadiums on big day match nights , but again leadership is weak .

Fans from all 20 Premier League clubs and 10 Championship teams will join forces this weekend to protest about the cost of ticket prices
Last year's BBC Sport Price of Football study showed the average price of the cheapest tickets in Premier League football has increased 15% since 2011.
Fans intend to display banners at matches including the Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool, and Arsenal's home game against Manchester United.
Kevin Miles, chief executive of the Football Supporters' Federation (FSF), said: "Pricing is a major barrier to watching live football for many fans - no club should deny fans the right to freedom of speech within grounds on such a central issue."
Supporters' groups from Championship sides Cardiff, Leeds, Birmingham, Nottingham Forest, Hull City, QPR, Bolton, Reading, Middlesbrough and Bristol City will join their top-flight counterparts in staging protests.
Away tickets for Manchester United fans travelling to Emirates Stadium on Sunday will cost £64 - the second-highest away price in the Premier League and the minimum home fans will pay for a 'category one' fixture between bigger teams.
Home tickets at Arsenal can reach £97, the most expensive in the Premier League.
Raymond Herlihy, chairman of Arsenal supporters' group Red Action, told BBC Sport he had sympathy with away fans.
He added: *"This is an issue which is bigger than your club or mine. It affects the millions of people who watch their teams every week. We are trying to get the issue out there because we are being priced out. *Arsenal have got so much money in the bank but we are playing ridiculous prices compared to 20 or 30 years ago. Supporting them is a life sentence with no chance of parole."
Protestors will unfurl special FSF banners at half-time and before and after matches. Another recent study by the GoEuro Football Price Index claimed the Premier League's average ticket price - £53.76 - was the most expensive in the world.
A Premier League spokesman said: "While the most expensive tickets are subject to the most attention, the huge number of offers available at clubs are generally ignored. This approach does not provide a fair reflection of what the vast majority of fans are actually paying to attend Premier League football matches."
