🇩🇪 Former Bayern Club President, Uli Hoeness on the clubs season ticket prices. 💶
🗣 “We could charge more than £104. Let's say we charged £300. We'd get £2m more in income, but what's £2m to us?”
🗣 “In a transfer discussion you argue about that sum for five minutes. But the difference between £104 and £300 is huge for the fan. We do not think the fans are like cows, who you milk.” 🍼
🗣 “Football has got to be for everybody. That's the biggest difference between us and England.” 🏴
Old but gold but perfectly put, and relevant with some of the extortionate prices some clubs are charging currently on this country.
British clubs could do with taking note…
If we get Wednesday away in the next round of the cup.
Please can we all agree that in regards to spending money inside the ground, all to go into Chansiri’s pocket we spend as much as possible.

Sir Alex Ferguson paid back the NHS in FULL for his life-saving brain surgery.
He threw a fund raising party at a Manchester hotel with many top guests which resulted in a whopping £405,000 being raised and Fergie has decided to donate the cash to the NHS as a thank you.
Quality that, fair play to him! 👏
"That's an absolute farce."
Octopus Energy CEO reveals to @Tomswarbrick1 that the UK has spent 250 million this year shutting down wind farms on windy days 'because the energy cannot be sold cheaply'.
Normally you can’t escape @reformparty_uk MPs gobbing off on here but interesting, isn’t it, how silent they are about their friend’s campaign to undermine @ZelenskyyUa and Ukraine.
Just when you need them to use some influence to protect British interests, they don’t. 🤷🏻♂️
Can’t take credit for this but it hits the nail on the head. 1 decent signing surrounded by average/below average players leads to relegation eventually #barnsleyfc
They partied , they bet on elections , they crashed the economy, they broke every public service, they destroyed integrity and honesty in public office , they paid their mates billions , they put their friends in the House of Lords, they gave their cronies knighthoods, they went into the jungle , they lied again and again, they were convicted by police, they went on holiday when they shouldn’t and they have the cheek to question Keir Starmer’s work ethic. I would never take anything for granted but I hope they are annihilated on Thursday. The worst people and government we have ever had!
P.S good afternoon all 😊❤️
🔴⚪️Comment: Barnsley were not ready to be promoted back to the Championship - and that is the bottom line.
The true passion which drives the playing side of club these days is player development & recruitment over league position.

Last night the news broke that the National League are in discussions with the Premier League to create a new competition featuring U21 teams.
🧵A thread:
Spurs and Newcastle going to Melbourne for a friendly 3 days after the Premier League season ends. Just for money. FA Cup replays replaced by a friendly the other side of the world on your watch. And you believed all their whining about player welfare?
