When we get back to the Premiership, all the big teams will have left for the European super league, the Sky money will have dried up, and ticket prices will be on a par with now...
I decided to crunch some data. I looked at season ticket prices for all PL clubs in 2018-19 and made some guesses. I assume our season tickets in the PL would be in the lower half of ticket prices in the PL but not too low given we are London. Using this data and guessing a little, I have come up with the following estimates of what CAFC might charge for Adult tickets if we ever made it back.
Zone 1 (West /East) : $999
Zone 2 (W/E): $699
Zone 3: (W/E, NWQ, Upper North): $599
Zone 4: Family, Lower North : $399
$399 would rank as the 6th lowest priced cheap ticket in all the PL. 7th is Everton at $485. The $999 best seats would be about the middle of most expensive, but the cheapest among all London PL clubs. Fulham's most expensive is $1149!
How would this impact you all? Would we even sell out The Valley? Prices have changed a lot since 2007.
If the premier league was to gain more teams like the charltons/Leeds/millwalls/Sheffield untied , I feel it would bring back a sense of realness or “non plastic” to the league!

I don’t get this at all ? So you’ve made up/guessed some prices for a hypothetical situation and then asked if people can afford it. Scratching my head here ... do you not have better things to do ?
There are 100 people here who have thousands of posts and you wonder... "Gee, doesn't he have better things to do?" Seriously? This whole board is for people who "don't have better things to do," including YOU! LOL.
As pensioners my wife and I currently pay 550.00 between us to sit in the east stand.Got to be honest that wouldincrease dramatically in the Premier league.Not sure the entertainment would be worth it.Outside top 3-4 clubs most games are mundane crap,featuring players with unpronouncable names who are nothing more than mercenaries lucky enough to have shyster agents that pull the wool over the eyes of gullible clubs.Championship would do fine for me.

We need to stay in the 2nd Division. Slowly build ourselves up for 5 or so years.
Then when the time is right. Try and get back to the premiership.
I would honestly just be happy enough as it is really where we belong.
We are not a league one or premier League side.
