not bad to be fair for a corporate box considering the prices of others, wouldn't surprise me if its already been sold

It is a lot but in comparison to some other clubs it's not that bad. Spurs and Arsenal both have tickets that are over 20k. No idea on Chelsea but they probably have something similar as well.

There must be a lot of people with a lot of money.

It's generally companies that buy these

tbf, I'd want a free Sommelier for that money, let alone service.

A bit rude that they wrote an entire article about my season ticket!

I needed someone to help me choose wine pairings for my prawn sandwiches at the games! £12k seemed like good value at the time...

Don't think it's a box....think it's a seat

Small plates, cheeseboards, hummus & enhanced networking opportunities - the future is bright.

if it gets us signing better players and improving the team then I'm all for it.

It's easy to spend hundreds on a michelin star meal and drinks, so once that it taken out of the £600-odd per game, how much money is actually being made on this?

Glad to see that there is a free programme though

It would be interesting to see what the takings are from the Riverside stand when all seats are taken.

Quite a fair bit I imagine.

There's a huge mark-up on food and drink. The high price is paying for the expertise of the Michelin star status, not the out-of-pocket expense paid by the venue for the cost of supplies.

The same thought went through my mind. Especially compared to match day takings before the old Riverside was demolished

Good point. Pick up the ingredients from the Tesco on Fulham Palace Road.

What I don't quite understand is that all of those spaces are off limits to regular season ticket holders, correct?  Or what about one-off hospitality, can you buy on a match by match by match basis? The ratehr more austere dugout bar - is this only avaialble then to those with very deep pockets?

So everyone else is left with the concourse concessions - available presumably only to riverside ticket holders.

I was provided with enhanced networking opportunities last season, when every week a new tourist from a different part of the globe plonked themselves down next to me.  Proper seven degrees of Kevin Bacon.

Many were very pleasant.  But that's not really the point.

Business networking I have done aplenty.  Different formats, different settings.  Never once did I think it sensible to punctuate it with shouting "Oooh", bluntly telling someone to get back onside or pointing vigorously in a direction in the hope that a round object might make it way there. 

Can't help feeling that some things are best kept separate.
