shackleton Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Who are these people that can afford to pay the prices quoted I was under the impression people could not afford to spend this sort of money more were concerned with putting food on the table and paying bills And don't tell me supporters will be flying in to watch the game from the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of fans over the years book these Summer Tour packages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such big discounts are offered only for topics I have a great interest in, rubbish comes at a premium though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a limited number of hotels around there. The one I stayed at when I went to a concert there doesn't seem to be on the booking sites any more. Plenty of cafe/restaurants to get a beer but I don't remember seeing any actual bars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will ensure a TAT barrage of success stories. Somchai, Lek and the 3 kids wont be rocking up upon the sidecar. Lucky Bones also a non-starter. Truly delusional. Depending on the Covid situation it might attract the interest of guys in the UAE, Saudi etc looking to escape the July heat at home to spend even just a few days here. I doubt the target audience is the old dears on this message board sitting in their bedsits whining about everything.

Overpaid? The average premier league player receives a mere 2.6m baht a week with the top ones having to scrape by on just 16.5m baht weekly (that's 858m baht a year). I think we need to start a gofundme page to help these poor creatures out.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flink Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Nothing I'd rather NOT be doing than paying 114 quid to sit in a (likely to be) half empty stadium watching a bunch of millionaire playboys and sex pests kick a ball around for 90 minutes. As for someone's suggestion the players play for free and the ticket money go to help Ukraine, sounds good but impractical. For a kick off, the players won't do jack s for free when they can call in sick on full pay of 150k a week. Then there's the "cut" for the organisers and all the brown envelope brigade. The Ukrainians would be lucky if there's enough left for a Morphy Richards kettle and a packet of cup-a-soups. Nah let them charge the exhorbitant ticket fees, give the players their cut of the gate money but withold 1 weeks pay from them when they get back to the UK. That should raise enough money to Charter BA to fly every woman and child out of Ukraine and have enough left over for a few AK's for the men left behind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrogaz Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 No, I would not pay 25000 baht to see United....it's too expensive. Stupid price whoever picked it. As the event gets closer the prices will get discounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Mickmanus Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I did go and watch a football match in that stadium before with a 4 PM kickoff. The problem was that you didn't get allocated a seat and so you had to sit in your seat to "reserve" the seat a few hours before the game , otherwise you would get a seat high up at the back of the stadium . The seats were directly facing the sun , so you would have to sit in 40 degrees direct sunlight for two hours waiting for the game to start . Football fans had paid 1000 Baht to see their team and looked very uncomfortable sitting in direct sunlight for hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PomPolo Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 As a staunch Manchester United fan to see them play against our arch rivals Liverpool in Thailand - I would definitely pay 25k, as long as they both had their first teams playing. I am probably going against the flow of this thread saying that - but the increased entrance fees probably covers their travel, fees (possible quarantine) and any beautiful Thai lady that crosses the teams paths ???? Yes I would pay that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
