How much...

Roughly how much does supporting your club cost you?

And

Why the feck do we do it?

posted on 20/3/17

Last season was just over £12k
Going out of the CL and league cup earlier plus away tickets now "only" £30 it should be under £10k this season

My dad's a regular £10k a season man as well. Obscene really when you think about it. Only time I came close to that out of my own pocket was when I put about 4 grand into the 2006 World Cup.

Sheesh man

This is one reason I asked. Someone mentioned figures in that region and more for football (club and country)

These guys are not overly well off either and have families and I have tbh I was like WTF.

For me when I had the money family came along and it seemed a waste even when I was relatively comfortable. Or certainly not justifiable to spend £10k pa on footie

Not having a go at those that do spend that. That's fecking dedication. Shame clubs don't appreciate that imo

As others have said, the SKY and BT subscriptions are the limit of my financial commitment, don't buy and merch and going to games isn't worth the money imo, if safe standing is introduced and ticket prices lowered then i'd go more often for sure.

I'd guess I get to around 12 games a season, so including the tram, few beers, food and ticket about £80, probably around £900+ a year.

Plus Sky and BT.

Usually the replays are on anyway if I Wang to watch the whole game

I try to make a handful of games a season. A couple of those with the wife and daughter.

When I was in Aberdeen, used to cost me like 300 quid per game but now it's a lot cheaper.

Would say, I spend roughly 2.5k a year if I include my Sky Subscription

I'd say about the same as Mudd.

Adding in my sons clothing habit then bump that up by another 500!

When I was a regular at United without a season ticket I spent probably around £60 a game and went to about 15-20 a season, including some mid week games. As the ticket prices increased within 3 seasons that cost had gone up to £100 a game.

Instead I started to go to Blackpool with my Dad and the Season ticket was less than £200, which was good value until you take into account the football

Since I moved North of the Border I have a season ticket at Hibernian and it costs about £350 for the season, cup games are about £20 a ticket so all in all I currently spend about £30 a game which isn't bad with a few pints in the pub.
