| Swans v Bluebirds on 07:54 - Nov 12 by DoubeDoube | not every game, we rarely sell out |
You’ve misunderstood. We rarely sell out, but there are plenty of fans who go to every game. If you’re going to turn up for Bolton on a Tuesday night in December, you don’t deserve to be fleeced for the higher profile games. |  | |  |

| Swans v Bluebirds on 14:31 - Nov 11 by pencoedjack | Id also say a lot of people who live in & around Swansea have no idea of trouble that happened(s)in places like Port Talbot, Neath & Bridgend between fans of both clubs on a pretty regular basis. |
Very true Penc, even the famous swimming session when you lot chased them local PT kids into the sea, no one this way knew what you were on about for years. Days before the internet and social media eh? Now THEM were the days….. |  | |  |

It was £31 for West Ham last week, not sure if that was cat A. It’s scandalous really, should be capped at £25 whatever the cat. Think it’s £65 for coach and ticket to your gaff, 4 hours of getting treated like absolute dog s, for a journey that usually takes most about 45 mins, then yiu have to endure the game lol….. I’ll never go on a bubble, nor will loads of others I personally know, probably never go to the Liberty either. Did the vetch around 9 times though….great days [Post edited 12 Nov 13:11]

No one knew for years eh, hilarious Benny, my Bro in law is From Llandaff North but not a football fan, he knows a few that are and I even had a pint with a couple in the Pineapple pub, years back. They knew about it. Call them kids but they weren't 10, were they 16-20 mostly and they went looking for it but got more than they bargained for. Me, I never could stand (nor understand) the hooliganism. |  | |  |

| Swans v Bluebirds on 07:44 - Nov 12 by jack247 | No. It’s reasonable. The club could have made more money for Cardiff and West Ham, but that would be screwing over loyal fans who are there every game. |
The loyal fans who are there every game tend to be season ticket holders. It won't make any difference to them. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Yes in most cases. Do you think the club should be shafting those who pay on a game by game basis to make a small profit? |  | |  |

Feck all You’re our capital when all said is done Capital’ s are always where the wealthiest live Social media still belittling Swansea as an economic basket case It’s why I never ever socialise with a Cardiff fan whether in Oslo or Ogmore |  |

I doubt that there is anybody who buys a ticket for every game but doesn't buy a season ticket. Secondly, it's not shafting people to have dynamic pricing. It's basic supply and demand. |  | |  |
| Swans v Bluebirds on 17:39 - Nov 12 with 0 views | onehunglow | It’s worth considering how many great Swansea men played for Cardiff as they were a “ bigger club” Not too much approbation given to Trevor Ford Mel Ivor Curt Barry Hole Gibbons Brayley Reynolds And there’s others like Legg who did get some Think it’s definitely taken a more fractious turn over the years |  |

Ok, every game they can get to. You must realise there are plenty of loyal fans who don’t have season tickets. I’ve got one but know a few who go game by game. Dynamic pricing is corporate speak for shafting people. It’s one thing for concerts, airlines, hotels etc. quite another for a football team people support week in week out. Take this to the extreme - Middlesbrough last day of the season and the winner gets automatic. Say 10k season tickets, 2k away fans - how much would you charge everyone else? |  | |  |

If you know football culture like you claim you do you would know that the PVM lot were not kids at that time. 1 name infamous in Cardiff football culture (from PT) was one of those who went into the sea. I am well aware they were not happy as they turned up at the Model T in Bridgend a couple of weeks later mob handed. I wouldn't be surprised if you claim you were with them. & for the record as much as I hate the football club, I have some very good Cardiff supporting mates. [Post edited 12 Nov 19:20]

I would have Middlesbrough as a Category A, though I would have that as a category A anyway. Those prices are far too cheap anyway. Two tickets for £35 in Zone 2 or £32 for Zone 3 with a family Duo. As for £38 for the best seats. Let's compare that to the Swansea Arena. Bill Bailey £76, Greg Davies £99, Mike & The Mechanics £76, Jimmy Carr £76. Those are Championship standard, rather than Premier League. It's 90 minutes of entertainment roughly, so a like for like basis. |  | |  |

For sure they knew exactly what they were doing, bit mad really, it’s only going to end one way. I remember that night, we win 2-0 late on. 500 of us walked back to the station, let’s say we had a bit of a laugh with the police that night |  | |  |

Got to know a few of them Years later going away, they were about my age, I was 16 the swimming night. I probably thought I knew everything, but I was just a daft kid back then like so many. Think I know who you on about, name begins with A? I don’t know what the model T is or anything about that kind of stuff, personal beefs between swansea and PT etc… Bizarre times that I don’t think the current generation can be arsed with. |  | |  |
| Swans v Bluebirds on 21:06 - Nov 12 with 0 views | Demitrius | They ran past me. They were definitely not kids. More young adults. They came unstuck in the Badminton or Robin Hood I believe. |  |

Well no let’s not compare it to Bill Bailey or Mike and the Mechanics because that’s farcical. You may as well compare it to round the clock entertainment on Netflix for £13.99. I’d agree Middlesbrough should be category A if there is anything on it. I don’t have an issue with £38, I had an issue with you saying that was far too cheap. If it’s to go up or get in the playoffs, the club could sell those tickets for hundreds each. Luckily, they won’t take advantage of people who were there for the less glamorous games. |  | |  |
