All supporters from ALL clubs should go ape, on all forms of media, and use this as perfect example of how we are all being ripped off.
Sheffield have given the perfect opportunity to protest and unite.

Absolutely mate and they know at this moment in time those 3 clubs will pack out the away end which imo is just fleecing large away supports.

That's just baffling.
And an absolute disgrace.

The only way that anything will ever be done is if away fans boycott games, clubs will unfortunately continue to charge these disgusting prices while people are still attending!

They're probably still smarting at us getting Glen Whelan for 500k.
Seriously though, it's enough to make the most die hard fan say "Fuck this!".... we should all take note.
We are football, it was almost almost Orwellian to see Braclays congratulating us on this last year via digital display boards shown on every Sky TV game but in reality it'll always mean fuck all until we stand together and say "Fuck this" as one.
Sorry about the overuse of "Fuck" but in this case warranted. Try to understand the context kids.

If I was a Sheff Wed fan, I'd be tempted to stay away in support of the away fans that are being ripped off. Makes me realize what a great team we have running Stoke City.

Derby should show the match live on big screen at their ground as a challenge.
They should also announce at the same time that the reciprocal game is 20 quid for away fans.

As long as tickets continue to sell then clubs will continue to increase prices. As has been said before, the only way to tackle it is for a mass boycott. A televised sky game would be even better!! It'll never happen though as supporters are too passionate about supporting their club. Maybe the clubs could start refusing to accept tickets for games that charge silly money to away fans?

What are the football authorities doing about this? The FA, the PL, the Football League. Why are these people so silent on this matter?
It's not just the clubs who are a disgrace.

No. Nobody is forcing them to turn up and hand there money over are they This is the bottom line (pun intended). If people didn't pay and show up at these prices, clubs wouldn't charge these prices. I can't be the only one who saw the dark humour in fans protesting about prices recently from INSIDE the grounds! How's that hurting the clubs?! It's a business. It has little to do with passion, sadly.

Surely this is where supply and demand comes into play though?
People keep paying so they keep rising.

Strange how they'd charge Derby more than Forest. Surely historically they would take away similar numbers, if not more for Forest?

I am a Doncaster based Stokie. When I am not at the Brit I enjoy a day out at The Owls. Prices charged by SWFC to away are the same that other clubs charge SWFC fans when they play away. This is due to high demand. We are lucky that Stoke do a cheap £20 is plenty with other clubs,such as Hull and a few others. I know Hull are no longer in the Premiership but it is just an example. SWFC fans are as pissed off as Derby, Forest etc. But clubs are greedy and treat fans with little or no respect. Hillsborough is a cracking day out but not worth £50 and the same goes for the Arse and Chelsea etc...

£52 in The Championship is mental, bad enough at Chelski.
Wednesday deserve all the stick they get for this...

The ticket prices are seriously getting out of hand. 52 pounds to watch championship football at Sheffield Wednesday is disgusting they should be ashamed. God knows what they would charge if they were in the Premier League. I think its also wrong that we pay more to watch bigger teams like Arsenal Chelsea Man Utd Man City etc because whoever we play is in the premiership. I think there should be 1 price for all tickets whoever the opposition is
