12th man definitely needed away, for a bounce back Looking at our away record it doesn't seem to work. Share any reward between all loyal fans not a couple of thousand who travel away.

I'd rather them keep the price of away tickets to the maximum £30 than offer free away travel.

Get rid. Its a terrible idea. Just encourages anti social behaviour on the concourses where beer is served when the caged animals are released having spent many hours on a dry coach being treated like school kids.

I don't know whether anyone else has heard this but was told the club are considering trying to negotiate a reciprocal £30 cap on away tickets with any other club interested. But the payback might be scrapping of the free buses?

Not from Norway i suppose... ..., but if you order away tickets you could call and order a free ride to away games and back to the Brit again. Even though you're a Norwegian. I've done it myself so I know it's possible.

I was told by the same person that last season Leeds were charging away fans £45 and Sheff Wednesday £40!!!!! Fucking disgraceful if right.

Get ready for a hike in ticket prices. Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds charge extortionate prices to visiting fans. Only good thing about these two Championship clubs is that the grounds are still " olde worlde" with decent pubs and eateries near to the.

This will be an interesting call for the club, if we are looking for a new start and want to keep everyone onside we could well see free travel remaining, not a lot we can do about prices at away games.

£45 they can fuck right off. It's going cost a fortune next season with the extra games and travel, and a lot of fans will have to cut their cloth accordingly, including me.

The free travel came as a consequence of bring in the premier league. A fund of money £200k I think is given to all Premier League sides to use as they will on tickets or trave. Stoke chose free travel. As we are no longer in the premier league no free travel, Tickets prices in the prem were capped at £30 no such cap exists in the Football League or EFL as it is now branded, so expect high prices for next season’s match tickets and no free travel

Why should all the benefit go exclusively to fans who go to away games? What money, it was a PL initiative? Season ticket prices have been frozen for 11 years is it?

After that Stoke chose to continue to provide the free travel themselves. Living where I do, it hasn't benefitted me many times but I still think it was a fantastic gesture by the club and they should continue it. Always generates the same responses though. Petty minded and greedy people moaning because the offer doesn't give them exactly what they want.

What money, it was a PL initiative? Season ticket prices have been frozen for 11 years is it? What money? Why is it free. It’s a service that costs money that the club must have some say over how it’s spent otherwise all Prem clubs would have free away travel. If the Prem stipulated it must be spent exclusively on away fans fair enough. I just think fans who go away are a small percentage of us who attend all the home games so why should they get all the benefit.
