The overall cost of following your team away equates to about 3 or 4 away games against the cost of a season ticket.
Hi gandhisflipflop, how are you working that out? £30 for away fan ticket (less for concessions), so 3 games away £90 and 4 games £120. ST bit more than those figures, I think.
Are you adding travel costs? For me to travel to Turf Moor, £100+ petrol (more I think at £1.30/litre). Maybe I overnight with friend/family or maybe I stay in hotel. I've stayed at the Dunkenhalgh before now, along with Chelsea team and some of their fans, £100+.
As I've posted, when I was buying a ST I only used to get on for 2 or 3 games a season - those games were costing me £150/game, let's say, before I added in my travel and overnight expenses.
My costs for an away game in London £30 less senior discount, so sometimes £25, sometimes £20. Travel costs £nil - I use my freedom pass.
Maybe add in my Foundation membership, because that gives me a chance at buying an away ticket. Let's say extra £15/game if I can get to 7 or 8 games.
We are all different.
