- I thought that the Super League was going to be a line in the sand for football but Chelsea have just put up their season ticket prices in a particular part of the stadium by 200%. Football without fans is nothing, but that mantra seems to be falling on deaf ears. Sad times.

For the love of money
People will steal from their mother
For the love of money
People will rob their own brother...
Turns out The O'Jays were talking about Premier League football...
MONEY money moneeeeeyyy! MONEEEEYYYY!! lol
😂🤣😂
Do what lfc fans did, stage a walk out
To but new player you need to raise ticket price 2 fold or more.. what a joke!!
Make a point without bringing spurs into it.
Remember when everyone said the ESL protests were only beginning and that the start of this season all fans would come together and push for change? Yeh, that was a fun week.
Spot on, that was just the start
Didn't even last a week. Took until points deductions being mentioned for top six fans to cry about how unfair not finishing in the champions league for a season would be and how punishment wasn't necessary, the owners must have learnt a lesson.
Because everyone got busy hating Newcastle lol
So first of all are we all back on bullshit anti ESL propaganda? Why are football fans so against change. Every little suggestion you lot start crying football has lost their soul. What’s so bad about the super league?
Also it’s kinda rich complaining that’s your team that “buys its way to success” is now passing on the cost of that success to the fans. Football does when billionaires turned it into a flex competition. Cry more.
Respect for calling out your own team when they fuck up
What’s the point of being a supporter of a club if you’re going to ignore their misdoings. As a man united fan, I’ll probably call out my club more than other fans would. It shouldn’t be accepted
Loki, been a Toon fan for 41 years, so have had plenty of practice. It was only rosy under the days of Sir John Hall and Keegan for around 5years.
Not sure about now, but how bad does it have to get when you would rather have a homicidal maniac Prince as your beneficiary than a sports shop owner who hasn't a pot to piss into? Funny then that Ashley buys up all these useless department stores (purely to get the property) while saving £40M a year with free Sports Direct advertising on his stadium that's dropping to pieces.
Just remember that Ashley was the one who sold NUFC to the Saudis, so people should really boycott Sports Direct for having done the deal to take the tainted £305 million, all soaked in claret.
Bayern Club President, Uli Hoeness on the clubs season ticket prices:
🗣 "We could charge more than £104. Let's say we charged £300. We'd get £2m more in income, but what's £2m to us?"
🗣 "In a transfer discussion you argue about that sum for five minutes. But the difference between £104 and £300 is huge for the fan. We do not think the fans are like cows, who you milk."
🗣 "Football has got to be for everybody. That's the biggest difference between us and England."
He is a German.Different mentality,they believe in the community.
I'm a West Ham fan (senior citizen) and my season ticket is £160 and before anyone says anything I have a great view. A package for three Europa league games cost me £25
I'd like to thank GSB for keeping their promise and keeping prices low.
Really? I’m sure they was charging up to £95 for the game against Liverpool a few weeks back…
@@TheSonnyGaming he said he has a season ticket
@@TheSonnyGaming I can assure you my season ticket covering all home premier league games is £160 as a senior and my son's is £320
Also they gave me a 3 match package for the home Europa league games for £25
@@cc-jp4gh mine is like is £395
He is telling the truth west ham tickets are cheap thata why they get big crowds,they didn't have to pay to build a new ground.
Well said Rory. Fully agree with you on this. It's disgusting to increase it by this much.
hey i know you
If Roman was allowed to build a new stadium, the huge increase in pricing for tickets would happen. More room to make money from events and more seats. Yet he wasn't allowed by the stadium owners.
I think it's sad when you look at it. We give everything to our club. But the club doesn't care one bit about us. Just the money we bring. The reality is football is a business, and businessmen only care about their money
Football wasnt always just about Business, but you wanted it to be that way so that your clubs could compete against the rest of europe.
Look at some german Clubs, Freiburg, Gladbach, Bayern, Frankfurt or Dortmund. They did not sell there soul to a billionaire or a state that obviously does not care about the fans in the cities. Yes some of them will never win the champions league again like Frankfurt for example, but that club has more soul than all the Premier league clubs combined
@@siiir1322 nobody wanted this dude, they just didn't have the power to stop it. People fought and protested the PLs creation but ultimately had no power to halt it
Roman has spent 1 billion of his own money and here you are complaining about a couple bucks on a ticket
How the fuck is 3 grand for 19 games a couple of bucks?
Its 157 quid a ticket
When i was a kid growing up in London in the 80's i did a paper-round for a pittance. Then on a Saturday morning i would look up which London clubs were playing at home & just take the tube and go watch a match. I watched everyone, Palace, Millwall, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, didn't matter, I just loved the adventure of live football. I was a wide-eyed kid with a passion for the game. I didn't have to pre-book anything and could get into all those grounds with my paper-round money. Think about that.
There is not a cat in hells chance i would go to any of those places now. They do not deserve what they steal from the fans & they are never getting my money again.
Well said, great wee story.
Same here didn't run all over London tho, but when Arsenal were away I'd go watch the opposition Spurs or Chelsea.
Chelsea fans need to do a walkout like the Liverpool fans did a few years ago show them that without fans football is nothing.
That protest was made even bigger by Liverpool throwing away a 2-0 lead after the walk out.
Yeah while they’re at it tell them they want to take back all the celebrations back that they made for all the titles won under the soul taking sugar daddy they accepted to begin with. Cheers…
What would be even better is a full stadium were nobody buys a program, a beer, a pie and best of all total silence even when a goal is scored imagine the reaction from the tv companies would be funny as hell.
Most of em are Glory hunting plastics 😭😭
Better still just don't pay it.
Been happening at Anfield for years. The main stand extension wasn't for ordinary fans... it was for corporate hospitality. Anfield Road extension will be the same. No wonder atmospheres are dying
Mate Liverpool fans fought for ticket prices 4yrs ago when FSG tried to raise the price, fans walked out and the prices stated the same
@@MoejiiOsmanTV my comment was about Corporate Hospitality, not ticket prices?! Agree ticket prices have not gone up massively but the Porto game last night my ticket was £53 and I was on the 86th row in the main stand... we are not cheap by any stretch in real terms.
I'm glad I stream every game illegally online. Always will.
The day illegal streaming stops is the day I will stop supporting my team....
Careful bro, u never know who's watching...pardon the pun 😁
@@spicytango i get that and probably the same for me, i'd rather spend 1k for food banks or other social support of the people in Liverpool than give 100€ to LFC as it's obviously run by FSG.
Support local teams and grassroots football. As a football fan fron Greece i have often visited England to see family and of course watch a game or two. Seen a few Premier league games (crystal palace and Villa) but had my best time at a league two game, Cheltenham-Wycombe.
Thats cool and all but legue 2 isnt grassroots it's just the lowest In the football league
I first thought that the title was a mistake, as in they had increased by 100%, meaning they’d doubled in price. But the truth is even bleaker, and I’m not even a Chelsea fan, far from it.
Literally same. questioned whether he’d got his maths wrong before watching
I had the same thought. The main reason I clicked on the video was to hear the numbers involved, because I couldn't believe they'd tripled the prices.
@@benjaminjames3499 he technically had, it’s more than a 200% increase. 200% would be £3,600 and the new price is £3,900
@@deano6410 yeah I noticed that but 200% is better for the title
@@benjaminjames3499 true, though “over 200%!” Seems even better for a title
Well said Rory, football needs to be for the fans only.
Why does it? Football is a business now so it's for the billionaires we are just taking part
pointless sound bite then fans should buy the clubs and run it.
The difference in bayern Munich
We could charge more than £104. Let's say we
charged £300. We'd get £2m more in income, but
what's £2m to us?
In a transfer discussion you argue about that sum
for five minutes. But the difference between £104
and £300 is huge for the fan. We do not think the
fans are like cows, who you milk. Football has got
to be for everybody. That's the biggest difference
between us and England",

Rory mate, the way you ended that video was so poignant and it really struck home how, especially for those of us who've been lifers like you, football is being pulled away from our communities, bit by bit. It's heartbreaking. The term 'slow violence' comes to mind.
Football lost its soul when the PL opted to go to sky sports rather than the terrestrial channels, it lost its soul when it put the Champions league games exclusively on BT sports, it lost it soul when it allowed players to switch national teams on a whim. Football lost its soul a long time ago.
It lost its soul when Neymar was wearth more than Messi and Ronaldo
It lost its souls when the Premier League was formed. Theres a price to pay for having the best league in the world. That price is paid in chunks of soul sadly.
@@Justlookin958 False
Yep. The rot started before the PL but that was when the rot took over
capitalism takes the soul out of everything. hope this helps.
Hold on ...Isn't this the same guy who said you're not a 'real' fan if you don't go to games...? Maybe in the future Rory cannot afford to be a 'real' fan himself...Oh the irony!
I’m a city fan, and ours just keep going up and up, and then we have a manager telling us to go when a lot of our fans cannot afford to do it every week. It’s a joke
The working class were driven out of premier league stadiums years ago. No one spoke up for them then. Now the sandwich brigade ( you call ordinary fans) are being squeezed the complaints start.
You tell em mate
its sad mate......money is like sea water when you have a thirst.....the more you drink the thirstier you get !!! (LFC fan)
It cost almost 900 bucks for 4 tickets to take my family to a single usa game a few weeks ago. Mental
When I left school in 1980 aged 16 I was earning £2 an hour, Saturday afternoon I'd stroll up to the Holte End turnstiles and hand over a one pound note to gain entry.
Chelsea fans should do what Liverpool fans did against Sunderland, but leave at the 39th minute
But imagine spending that much money and then leaving the game before halftime
@@bobbobson9952 doesn't make sense to me either
@@fearlessformidableferociou8623 imagine being this thick
@@fearlessformidableferociou8623 Because at the end of the game the worlds media will be focused on why the stadium was half full for most of the match and clubs will have to explain themselves. It's not a good look for the PL if the games being broadcast have very little fans in them. One reason why fans from different clubs need to stick together in regards to ticket prices.
@@desmo998rr Yeah no it makes complete sense but i was just trying to say how shitty it must feel for ol' Joe Shmo buying a pricy af ticket just to walk out on the game (despite it being for a good cause).
I'm a Newcastle fan but it's far too expensive to go to see them. So I go to gateshead FC games home and local away games. It's non league but it's really good atmosphere and family friendly to.
The only benefit i can see from this is that lower league teams will see more people starting to come to them due to the prices. Get better food and pints for cheap and can pay a tenner for a game of football
Rory, Talk of corporate hospitality, maybe look at Laurence McKenna going with Saf from Nike communications. Person you work with is one those people taking up places from “real fans” on a corporate jolly.
I don’t care about football anymore, it’s become a joke. Var, soft players, diving, ticket prices, ffp, parachute payments, plastic fans.
This was always gunna happen. Look how much you’s spend every transfer window, your wages, sacking managers every single time. It all adds up.
Wait till clubs start playing the 'we need a super league to be sustainable' card.
Erm, they tried that. The end result is Barcelona’s predicament. Glad they’re struggling
@@Stephen_Platt They'll try it spinning it again with so much money to be had from it. And everyone will think it's a great idea eventually. Remember when Microsoft got outrage for wanting a console to always be online and you couln't share video games with friends? Well...it seems to be working out all right for them now. People are fickle.
@@Stephen_Platt to be honest most teams got pissy cos they weren't deemed big enough. It wasn't really to save the game for the fans. If it was about getting real fans in the stadium, they wouldn't price normal people out of going.
People need to wake up and just accept the elite don't care about them, and just put your money into teams that will appreciate you.
Mad how Rory is one if the few footy youtubers that will not just call out the team/players but the owners too.
Found my new favorite football talk channel...unbiased and truthful. Nothing but love for you Rory keep it up.
seems to be becoming similar to F1, where its all corporate friends, etc at the games, not so much fans

@@relax9674 No, but all these clubs don't need the money though, Chelsea were doing just fine for years prior to this decision to increase it by 200% It's just a way for them to squeeze every last money out of supporters.

The game of the common man ran by millionaries. Not quite a relationship of matromony.

I feel like English clubs could learn a lot from clubs like Bayern and Dortmund.
What learn how to be a 1 team league
@@L1am21 In terms of ticket prices and being for the fans. They also never even entered the conversation about the ESL and their ticket prices are not out of this world.
@@yoditan true. It's gone too far in England I keep waiting for the bubble to bust at some point they have got to be asking for too much. The greed is out of this world and they keep taking advantage out of people. for some people in England thier club is like a religion thay cant just start supporting a diffrent club cause they dont like how its ran or whatever.
thank god i’ve already seen these guys play a few times live, looks like i’ll have to wait 200% longer to see another game at the bridge
Well said Rory.
I’m ashamed of Chelsea, they need to knock this shit in the head! Without the fans, football is nothing!
I haven't been able to get a ticket to Anfield for years because of the prices and it seems like everytime I check they're asking for more from me.
Yeah, but you are still paying well less than these fuckers.....Does 'Every time I check' imply that you don't actually go...you just 'check'' Doesn't seem to stop our Irish and Scandinavian brothers and sisters in Red, they find the fare to travel as well as buy season tickets...All this while sleeping on the floor at some Kopite's gaff. They've been doing it for so long they no longer need a hotel bed.....Real and true supporters! Ya snivelling get!
@@fitzbarbel are you actually having a go at me for not being able to afford tickets? Someone that can travel as often as that clearly has a nice amount of disposable income, I don't. Where the fuck do you get off judging me. You don't know me, you don't know my life situation so pipe down. If you understood the ethics and values of the club you never would have opened your mouth.
Rory back on form with this video, keep up this better content
I’m an american fan of Manchester United and just moved to the uk and I love the premier league in general ,and it’s so frustrating trying to get tickets for matches away and home the prices our ridiculous tbh getting nba and nfl tickets are way easier ,affordable and reasonable the fa should do something to lower ticket costs for all the clubs cause the current system is awful
why go backwards

@@SangNguyen-uz4pb nyo ho
Truly catastrophic, my head to this very moment is all over the place, I can’t make sense of this, truly unrecognisable, I feel stuck in a maze, I don’t know what direction to take my thoughts…
A 200% increase from one season to the next 😲 travesty. I’m glad I support a league one club. Even our tickets are probably a bit overpriced but nowhere near this! I know the football isn’t as good quality but it’s just as exciting a league in my opinion, if not more so.
What's football if you have no chance of attending am I right?
and during a pandemic and economic outfall from Brexit.
Chelsea ownership and leadership showed their true faces here.
stream the matches like the rest of us do
We rob them before they could rob us
Everything is losing its soul. Have you looked around the world lately?
With the new price ticket hike it's as if Chelsea has increased its stadium capacity from 41,000 to 53,000 without even building a new stadium that costs £1.5 billion.
Do you where Tottenham is? Rough old manor.. go on Rory give it to the Spurs 😂🤣😂
Most of London is rough
What a view Rory!
I'm a spurs fan. What you said is spot on mate. How can they charge that when we don't even win anything.
So the cheapest ticket is half a months rent for me living in South Africa. I don't understand these prices. Paid R890 for an Iron Maiden ticket in 2017 and 90 mins of football is apparently worth 3 times that.
Slightly misleading here. A Small portion of the tickets in West Stand Upper are now being sold as hospitality packages with food and drink (including Alchol) included. These are now premium seats. This is standard practice at most clubs. Fans who previously occupied these seats will have first choice of relocation to any other area of the stadium where they will still pay the £1,200 they did before.
Newcastle fan here just to agree with you 100% football is not for the working class anymore and it’s just a matter of time before most top clubs do the same. It’s disgusting Rory I can’t say anything else mate, you are paying for success. 😢
Rory's on a 150k subs now mate. He's probably got his own box. He's nearly rich enough to pay Chelsea to play privately behind closed doors just for his entertainment.
@@Justlookin958 My point is for every Chelsea fan not just Rory as this is wrong in so many ways, football players come from working class backgrounds (lots of them) football needs your working class man/woman never forget your upbringing no matter how Rich or successful you become.
The British football fan are part of the spectacle that makes the Premier League so marketable around the world. The day tripers want to see the fans in full voice as much as the football.
Well said Rory,.. They aint learnt from Empty stadiums
Buddy welcome to the big league sports. I can't believe it's taken this long. 😳
I think the scariest part is that loyal fans haven't been "forgotten", they've been deliberately cast aside in the name of greed. They know full well that the average fan can't afford those prices, and if anything that encourages them more. As fans we all forgot about the super league far too quickly. In our case, the Champions League win glossed over a lot of the cracks, and we can't forget. Think about how much impact we all made as fans over those few days, we should STILL be angry. The owners of all those clubs must be laughing themselves to sleep over how we've all gone back to normal.
That’s normal for a ucl final these days but yes this reminds me of us protesting to stop fsg trying to put our highest matchday price ticket up back in like 2016 I think it was
My first time watching a video of your. Thank your colleague Younes.
Have you ever thought of Chelsea FC's debts? We have more than £1.5 billion debts...
Save money and train your kids not for buying tickets £4000 pounds a year that's stupidity.
That was a myth. We never took the game back. We lost the game when the Premier league and rich Russians came and made the game upper middle class. Don't ever think we had the game
To be fair to City they do often provide cheaper tickets for certain games, 12.50 recently for a couple of their champions leagues games, yet people just criticised them for being ‘desperate’
Thought the title was a typo and it was actually ment to be %20 but fuck me £3900 to watch every home game is absolutely disgusting. Imagine being a lifelong fan with a season ticket you have a pension and now you have to pay 4k that's gross
This is the sad part of having a team that people will travel the world over to see in person. However a 200% increase is absolutely absurd. Damn near criminal
when they were talking about hyper inflation, i didn't think it would be like this...
We need a much bigger stadium. Our stadium capacity is too small for a club of our stature. Totally understandable that they are increasing ticket prices
That’s what happens when you have an owner like Abramovic… the rich are so greedy.
And yes I know, Glazers are probably even worse…
That was very quick I must say from you 😂
This isn't just Abramovich. So many clubs are going down this route
Glazers worst
As a chelsea fan you are absolutely correct🙂
The fact people have to pay to watch football on tv is disgusting
And I sit down here just to enjoy how HD your video camera is.
They increased the price because they know they'll still fill the stadium if they raised the prices. Plus we really do need to expand the stadium which is impossible in its current location or move to a new one to reduce the price.
Been like this for a while. Shame no one protested the lenient treatment of the super league clubs and instead kept hyping up this coming season due to the transfer spending most of these said clubs did instead
Honestly the view from the west upper is the worst at Stamford Bridge apart from maybe Shed Lower. I love the view in the East Upper, so unique with the steepness of the stand.
Back to the point, these prices are mental but there will be enough corporates to pay it sadly.
its kinda like an economic boom going on right now in the PL. Loads of star players and managers coming here, loads of sponsors, Newcastles new billionaire owners. Must be that these big 6 club owners feel like they need to make as much as they can right now, by driving prices up, before it all stops growing and people stop buying
I am am Arsenal Fan my Question to you is would you prefer Pre Abramovich Chelsea or Chelsea in this Current form?
Yet again I’m proud to be a Norwich fan
Watching Premier League in Polish TV is 4 times cheaper then here in the UK. Also, standard TV channels are showing the most important national matches (qualifiers, world cups and euros) and champions League, and europa league matches for free. England is a home of football and it's expensive to watch matches 🙄
I guess they want to pay Rudiger that contract 🤦🏻♂️
when prices rise this fast, attendance is bound to fall. Loook out for empty stadiums as people choose instead to watch it on tv instead. Not worth that money, no matter who you are watching.
There's enough tourists to make the revenue so the clubs dont care. 1 full kit wanker with his kids buying the whole club shop out already makes more revenue per game than like 5 season ticketers. Abramovich doesnt give a shit about attendances, unfortunately
swear i've seen you in the hospitality section mate
The prices we have to pay at Tottenham is ridiculous I’m not someone who is rich at all but I love my team and I feel that buying a ticket is punch in the guy
Sad to say it’s time to start supporting lower league teams, or just create fan owned teams and work our way back up like FC United of Manchester or the new AFC Wimbledon
Should have a proper protest there. Boycott going to that stand etc.
Ridiculous Rory I'm a season ticket holder at utd and these owners don't care about loyal fans they only care about tourists who will buy merch etc

It’s just really sad game day tickets should be cheap to keep the true fans. It’s taking the soul out the sport very disappointing.
it call inflation RORY but 200 percent is insane
No way! Surly it can’t be that much!!!
I've never even been East of the Atlantic Ocean... but this somehow hurt me.
sad times
All I’ll say is match going fan stoped Chelsea from moving away from Stamford Bridge which means they had to keep a small 40k stadium compare to the size of their club so season ticket prices are going to go up because they don’t have a 60k Stadium to sell tickets and if you want a team that’s going to challenge for titles they need to make money so fans did this to them selves a little bit all because you wanted to stay at Stamford Bridge even though it’s small and outdated and doesn’t represent the modern powerhouse that is Chelsea
Fair point
@@hermonhazard5851 like I’m Chelsea fan but we need a world class stadium… fans make an atmosphere and makes stadiums feel like home not the stadium itself…
It's not just corporate football clubs prefer day trippers to season ticket holders because they spend more on the day
The price increases are never going to stop going up. Premier League owners are comparing their profits to that of the NFL and other US sports and want to get on that level because that's roughly the same price for a season ticket to a NFL team sadly.
Ticket sales are such a small percentage of big club's revenues nowadays, why they decided to do this I don't know
At the other end, Brentford are retaining their home kit for a second season so that fans can save money. The fact that football carried on during empty stadiums has shown the powers that own clubs, atmosphere isn't necessary in a ground, the game will carry on. Everyone should find their small local club and start supporting them. The clubs don't care about the fans as they have the TV money.
Football has lost its soul decades ago, way before this morronic price hike.
That is a ridiculous astronomical price hike!
Maybe with the super league they can charge less per ticket because the clubs will be getting more of a cut so the super league could be good in that sense
There isn't a cheese room at Spurs - was a joke created by opposition fans when the stadium was being opened.
