Liverpool fans boycotting Hull game

I can see their point, but I struggle to understand their logic behind it.
Why should / would a business reduce the prices of its products when they're selling so well?

As a Darlo fan, at away games, would you like to be charged a 3 times higher ticket price than some of the other clubs in the league?

Re: Liverpool fans boycotting Hull game
Of course I wouldn't 'like' to be charged more, but it's a way of life I'm afraid. It's not as though Hull did a Norton on them and only announced the ticket prices a couple of days before the game.theoriginalfatcat wrote:ArmchairDieHard wrote:http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32506653

Norton announced the higher price about 5 minutes before anyone turned up. At least West announced it well before.ArmchairDieHard wrote:It's not as though Hull did a Norton on them and only announced the ticket prices a couple of days before the game.

Re: Liverpool fans boycotting Hull game
Smaller clubs get screwed over by bigger clubs all the time in terms of TV money, sponsorship money etc.
Smaller clubs finding a way to exploit the bigger clubs seems like fair game to me.

I know, that poor small club Hull earning £100m+ from this season. They're so badly done to.PaulMJohnson wrote:Smaller clubs get screwed over by bigger clubs all the time in terms of TV money, sponsorship money etc.

Also, when it comes to whacking up ticket prices, it's the fans who get exploited, not the club.
And to use your logic, Darlo are a bigger club than Norton or West Auckland. So was it "fair game" when they tried to screw our fans over?
