Tottenham Fans Blame Ticket Prices for Declining Stadium Atmosphere
13 Nov
Summary
- Tottenham's home atmosphere has "declined" in recent seasons
- Fans, especially young supporters, are being "priced out" of attending matches
- Champions League games have seen "thousands of empty seats" due to "unaffordable" ticket prices
According to the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust, the atmosphere at the club's 62,850-seater stadium has "declined" over the past couple of seasons. The fan group attributes this to too many empty seats, with "too many supporters, particularly young supporters, priced out of attending."
The trust argues that "thin the crowd and you thin the noise." They point to last season's Europa League nights, where "sensibly priced tickets" led to full grounds and a lively atmosphere. In contrast, Tottenham's return to the Champions League this season has seen "thousands of empty seats" due to "unrealistic and unaffordable match pricing."
