World Cup ticket prices: Fifa's prices a 'monumental betrayal' says Football Supporters Europe

Fans' group Football Supporters Europe says it is "astonished" by Fifa's "extortionate" pricing strategy for World Cup tickets.

Ticket prices are extortionate, going to be an expensive trip for all the England ultras. That’s without the price of beak lashed in as well.

I find it hard to imagine a bunch of English football lads scoring beak in the USA.

I suspect this all is being added to the world cup hosted mostly by the United States at least partially as cover for fifa's greed...they can blame it on the Americans when the reality is that fifa enriched itself with over the top broadcasting fees while at the same time assuring those same broadcasters that there would be new advert space knowing full well that most will blame the americans.

Can someone explain to me in simple terms, how the hell they`re going access everyone who enters the USA social media for the past five years.

Do people have to hand their phones, devices over to customs or would you have to provide your details on any forms filled in prior to arriving, so`s they could have a snoop ?

Surely this is going to put thousands upon thousands of people off going ?

Who wants Trump and his goons looking at your socials ?????

The administration doesn't even know these answers yet. Nothing has officially been decided, and I wouldn't even be surprised if this just isn't a thing come world cup time. I also wouldn't be surprised if they had some restrictive social media rules in place by then too. It's so hard to tell what they're serious about doing and not. It's beyond exhausting.

Is grandoldteam.com included in the social media checks? No chance I’m having some snooty borders official judging the contents of my fridge.

Thanks.

The logistics and manpower for this to happen would be mind blowing, but I’m sure some of his mates will be the recipients of any contacts that would be handed out.

Tourism to the States has already taken a hit since the Orange goon got in, this would surely kill it dead ??!
 
The high prices are the natural progression of the rampant greed started when 'we' were all stupid enough to pay to watch live footy on TV. Sky showed how eye watering amounts of money could be made and others were always going to follow suit. Once you've opened the box.....
