@BBCSport Don’t think he’s looked on the FIFA market place site. Tickets for literally every game available. Stupid prices but still available.

@SpireiteGazette Letting it roll takes more time than taking a touch. This is so stupid 🤦🏻♂️

@superseats @henrywinter On tickets not as much as one category 3 final ticket. Also went to all 7 England games in the Euros in Germany which you don’t get caps for and it’s still less than one category 3 wc final ticket. 4 years worth of tickets 🤣🤣🤣

@cfcdollo @henrywinter How much did you spend collectively to get 56 caps?

“Two choices lie before you - will you demonstrate commitment to fans, and push FIFA to rethink this pricing? Or will you demonstrate complicity and do/say nothing?” Very strong email sent to FA board today about World Cup ticket pricing by one of England’s leading home-and-away fans, a top capper. Sentiments shared by many on England fans’ WhatsApp groups. FA may have to make a public statement on its position at some point otherwise the fans’ protests planned for the March internationals at Wembley could be even louder.
In fairness to the FA, it did privately voice fans’ concerns to FIFA about the ridiculous ticket prices. Following widespread outrage amongst fans and in the media, FIFA made a partial U-turn with its new category of “supporter entry tier” of £45 for all 104 games. While a welcome step in the right direction, fans point out this will benefit only 500-600 England fans for their games – 10% of their allocation. Fans want more of the allocation to be “supporter entry tier”.
“England’s loyal fans know that supporting our country, home and away, is not without cost,” acknowledges the fan in his email to the FA. “It’s factored in. It’s factored in when tickets/fixtures are released, and there’s a scramble to get booked up for trips to Wembley or those away games. However, it’s what we do for what we often cite as ‘the best hobby in the world’. However, FIFA have declared war on fans, treating our loyalty with disdain, whilst also plundering it for financial benefit.”
FIFA emphasises that "as a not-for-profit organisation, FIFA reinvests the revenue it generates from the FIFA World Cup to fuel the growth of men’s, women’s and youth football throughout the 211 FIFA member associations", all for the greater good of the game. To which, the England fan said to the FA, “Let me be very clear - there is no greater good for the wider, global game that is served by attacking and eroding the loyalty of fans.
“I like to think that when the players come over to applaud us fans after away games, there’s a genuine appreciation for what we do and the support we bring”. England fans want the FA to acknowledge that and fight for more tickets to be made available at more affordable rates.
One of the frustrations is that a diehard England fan might have missed one game through illness or work commitments and so misses out on the £45 tickets and has to go for a more expensive option if* (*if etc) England reach the final. “The $60 to $4185 final ticket jump is still sickening for many,” the fan says. “But England potentially getting through to a final and not having a ticket is also sickening.” #ENG

@talkSPORT I’m quite a high capper with the travel club that travels to every game we play. The dream is to watch us win the World Cup along with multiples of others that we meet everywhere. FIFA has booted us all smack in the bollocks for the vast majority of us of the chance of that dream

Any chance of thinking about the real fans on this one @FIFAcom ? These prices are ridiculous! This isn’t the fucking Super Bowl!
Football Supporters Europe@FansEurope
@FIFAcom's #WorldCup ticket prices are a betrayal to the most dedicated fans. At least $6900 to support your team from the first match to the final - nearly 5 times more than in Qatar. FSE calls for the immediate halt to ticket sales. 🔗 Statement: bit.ly/44Sqx9G

@FIFAcom can you start the draw please? This is an hour of my life I’m never getting back!
