Overview
- Clubs voted unanimously at a London shareholders’ meeting to keep the away-ticket ceiling at £30 for two more seasons, running through summer 2028.
- The extension means the cap, introduced in 2016, will cover 12 consecutive seasons.
- The league cited away attendances rising from 82% to 91% and highlighted the contribution of visiting supporters to matchday atmosphere, noting added travel costs.
- Football Supporters’ Association chair Tom Greatrex praised the move as saving fans millions and urged clubs to tackle unaffordable home prices.
- Coverage contrasted the Premier League decision with lower-league pricing pressures, with Coventry City owner Doug King pointing to far lower broadcast revenues to justify higher charges.
