Play-off Thread

If complaining about those prices is tinpot then football truly is broken.

We're very close to a 39,150 sell out which is incredible taking everything into account, not sure how Reading are doing but looks like it'll be an 80k+ crowd. Not bad for the tinpot final.

Ticket prices are same as last year, anybody complaining about ticket prices for a play off final at Wembley for a place in the premier league is too tinpot to even be there in the first place (not that I'm bitter)

Just because it's a playoff final it's still a complete fucking rip off.

Nuttall · May 24, 2017

you can't tell me you expect to go to the season's showpiece event and not pay more for it?

The clubs with enough fans to sell out always will regardless of the pricing meaning they can afford to charge basically what they want, why wouldn't they?

AnkleBiter · May 24, 2017

Because it's fucking wrong and it's taking advantage of our loyalty and passion, this is the working man's game, but we have people having to pay £64 plus £2.50 booking fee per ticket plus postage just to get reasonable seats. Of course I expect to pay more, maybe double our prices (£40-£60) but there comes a point where it's taking the piss. Some people are paying over £100. You know damn well its wrong, stop being a melt

It is wrong, unfortunately they know people will pay it. My club are 1 of, if not the worst for taking the piss, they take advantage of people's passion/loyalty.
While people are willing to pay it, it will never change, so I suppose the only people who can change it are us.
But having watched shite for many years, we're not going to risk not going now and then missing out if we ever get back to the PL.
Basically they are ripping us off, for being so passionate about our clubs.
Well done to HTFC and BCFC for making a stance, seems that West Yorkshire is a little bit more forward thinking.

Nuttall · May 24, 2017

They aren't making that much of a stance they've both just about sold out haven't they?

A stance regarding their season ticket prices pal

Nuttall · May 24, 2017

Fair enough

mistermagic · May 25, 2017

Despite the lack of pulling power both sides have, I wish the fans of Huddersfield and Reading to enjoy the day. It's an expensive day but if you haven't done it before, Wembley is a great day out. I wish such an event wasn't on a working day.

I wish Huddersfield go up for history's sake. We've had Reading in the past, let the other side enjoy themselves.

The Southbank · May 27, 2017

Nice article about Eamonn Dolan and how his influence helped shaped not only Reading but Exeter. 5 of his academy graduates will be representing both clubs at Wembley this weekend. His son will also lead us out which is a lovely gesture.

Dean Hoyle and his wife cycling to the game to raise money for school kids that can't afford to go to the game. Fair play.

Ciderup · May 28, 2017

No offence to Reading but come on 'Udders!!

parmyhtfc · May 28, 2017

Programme is £10 what a rip off
Efl should hang there heads in shame
Over 40% increase on last year

markwwfc1992 · May 28, 2017

I remember getting an NFL programme at Wembley for Kansas vs Detroit last year, that was a tenner too.

Balls Of An Ox · May 28, 2017

ELF don't care...they know that people will pay the £10. While we might complain about it, we're the mugs that allow these prices by paying!

The Southbank · May 28, 2017

Safe journey down for all the Huddersfield fans heading to the game tomorrow.

And yours too may the best team win

Luke_ciderhead · May 29, 2017

Just quickly logging in to wish Huddersfield the best of luck today! Come on Terriers!

Walkley_Owl · May 29, 2017

Safe trip to all attending, after the horror of last Monday let's hope this event goes unscathed.

If I'm honest in my heart I want Huddersfield to do it, be on par with Blackpool going up in 2010 but in my head I want Reading as it's just the wankest away day in the division.

I'm not even sure I'll watch it, fucking bottling Wednesday bastards.

Jockney · May 29, 2017

It would be a great achievement, but it wouldn't be close to Blackpool's. They really did do it on bugger-all.

Liam_SWFC · May 29, 2017

Good luck to both teams, as Walkley said Reading is an awful away day so I'm leaning towards them winning. Let's keep the league as Northern as possible next season.

Bilo · May 29, 2017

How the fuck did he miss that?

Only he knows. I could have scored that!

Jockney · May 29, 2017

Come at him fast, he was stretching and it only went millimetres wide. Not an absolutely terrible miss, I don't think. Big chance, though.

Jockney · May 29, 2017

For a side who finished on negative GD and only had the 15th best goalscoring record in the division, Huddersfield look impressive going forward.

I thought Valeri Belokon did have some input towards their promotion, if Wikipedia is to be trusted? Look at the way they plummeted down the leagues after he was frozen out, because according to him, the Oystons no longer needed his financial backing.

Leo · May 29, 2017

As a neutral watching....this was shit. Vanarama play off final was far more entertaining...that's all.

LondonOrn · May 29, 2017

Well I wasn't expecting a classic, Huddersfield finished the season in terrible form and I fear for whichever team goes up next season.

Kilburn Ram · May 29, 2017

Load of shite.

Whoever goes up will need to step up a few gears to even think about staying up.

Raymondo316 · May 29, 2017

Derby's record could be under threat from either of these two.
