David Gold - stand up comedian

Birmingham City

comment on the article

He should become one seriously, because what i have just read from him is a laugh about encouraged by reducing price tickets when we as a supporters get fleeced more than anyone else, this twinned with his whopper the other night about if we do go up it might be better to not spend any money, get relegated, keep the parachute money and build from there!is pure comedy.

Dave - Jongleurs are looking for comedians, i suggest you apply!

I would like to see what Birmingham do if they get promoted, doubt they would reduce ticket prices £30 adult 4 derby fans and it's on sky! Absolute rip-off and something has to be done by all clubs

I went to st.andrews as a newcastle fan for the f.a cup tie earlier this season and was charged £30 for my ticket. This was a total disgrace as the stadium was shockingly bad to say the least,the view from the seats were of a poor quality,while also stewards and police treat us like dogs.Total shambles.

is it any wonder that fans don't turn up when it cost £30 to watch two poors teams with poor officials attempt to play football on what was little better than a ploughed field.doesn't compare well to next years euros where tickets for an international tournament start at £30 does it.time for fans to start voting with there feet

he should not lower prices, unless it is actually cost effective.

as for raised prices for away teams, if people are still coming, he should put up prices more. The man is only doing whats best for birmingham city.
