Coupled with high inflation and the broader rise in living costs, these moves have sparked a strong reaction from the fan community. A total of 116 different supporters’ organisations representing a variety of Premier League teams have united to sign a letter demanding that clubs maintain current ticket prices across the 2026/27 and 2027/28 seasons. Their correspondence also calls for full transparency on ticket pricing and revenue data, in addition to open discussions regarding clubs’ future ticketing strategies.
Supporters Call for Transparency and Dialogue
The letter, released by the Football Supporters Association, urges clubs to bring an end to what it terms the “arms race on prices” and draws attention to the added difficulties resulting from changes to kickoff times for television scheduling. “Matchdays have never been harder to plan for and more expensive to attend,” the letter says. It further highlights the significance of the current £30 limit on away tickets, describing it as a “significant agreement” and stating that it “proves that clubs and supporters can work together to achieve positive change”.
Outlook for Ticket Pricing
With increased scrutiny from supporters and a growing demand for accountability, Premier League clubs are facing mounting pressure to reconsider their approach to ticket pricing. The unified call for a freeze and for transparency could mark a new chapter in the relationship between clubs and their fanbase regarding affordability and access to live football.
