Barber Welcomes Away-ticket-cap Extension

By Paul Camillin • 07 February 2019

Brighton & Hove Albion chief executive Paul Barber has welcomed a unanimous decision from Premier League clubs to continue the £30 cap on away ticket prices for the next three seasons.
 
Barber said, “Our away support has been excellent and we appreciate both the effort and cost made by our fans, as well as those who visit us at the Amex. Supporters travel in large numbers, across the country every week, and the cap put in place by the Premier League and the clubs recognises those efforts.”
 
The £30 away ticket cap was introduced in season 2016/17, following the successful implementation of the Premier League Away Supporters’ Initiative which saw clubs provide a range of measures for their away fans.
 
For the last four consecutive seasons, Premier League crowds have reached record levels with 96% of tickets sold. This is testament to the compelling football and dedication of fans, and the League is committed to maintaining these high attendances.
