Why should I pay so much for Everton?!

[Sector9]

Prices

Adults - £32
Over 65s - £20
Under 16s - £16


I am 18years old, a student and an NUS card holder. Is this Everton (can't be fulham surely) squeezing money out of students, notoriously the most skint age band? I can't afford £32 a ticket! It's either not go for me or get an under 16s ticket... might get caught out though..

As there are so may more students than there used to be, economics dictate that they can't give out under 16 prices for so many people. At least that is their excuse. When I was your age people went out to work and had a wage and had far more money than they do now. In fact I can say I had more disposable income then than I do now. But further education means you miss out now on the promise that you make more money later. It's a con but will work for some.

So the reason is you suffer now is because you will make oodles of money later. For such a clever generation I am amazed they didn't see the con coming.

To be honest £32 is quite reasonable for a Prem game. Of course my goodself wouldn't have to pay that if i decided to go, but still not everyone can be Fred  :015: .
