West Ham fans plan mass board protest after 'scandalous' decision

West Ham fans have threatened a mass protest against the club’s board after tickets for the Premier League clash against Man City went on sale.

A screenshot of the Hammers’ ticket prices went viral on social media which shows the cheapest tickets listed at £55, with no options for kids or concessions prices.

The prices have been labelled a “disgrace” and “embarrassing” as fans from clubs across England have rallied behind the West Ham supporters.

Fans are up in arms about the decision to do away with concession prices especially, in a debate which has been running since the end of last season.

However, with the discussion now reaching wider audiences, some fans have suggested a protest against the board in an attempt to reverse their decision.

Ranging between £55 and £120 for tickets means for a family of four to attend a game, they could be paying as much as £480 – a price which is simply unachievable for most fans.

There have now been suggestions for protests such as a mass walkout from the London Stadium at some stage in the upcoming season.

If you want to make a statement for the world to see.
Mass walkouts on live games.
The issue is that it could affect the team.

This was always Sullivan plan..
Sell the dream
Price out the locals & working class

Make West Ham a franchise.
Create by the poor
Stolen by the rich.— E20ZoneTv (@E20WHU) July 22, 2024

There needs to be a mass walk out at a certain point of the first game…even if it’s for a few minutes then come back in again. Or even every turn their backs to the action after kich off for a minute!— BromleyHammer ⚒⚒⚒ (@WestHamSteven) July 22, 2024

Disgraceful, contact FSA. Maybe a walkout.??— 80s Alex boy (@Whaddonrd65) July 22, 2024

Until there is a coordinated protest from all clubs fans it will never change. The FSF and other bodies all need to unite and all fans have to get behind it to drive change.— Gareth Lewis (@CruMster666) July 24, 2024

No reduced prices for kids or OAP's is a disgrace.
For a family of 4 to purchase a Band 3 ticket for one game would now cost £340. You could have a family holiday for that #WHUFC #PremierLeague https://t.co/KtBLmz834X— Billy Crawford (@BillCrawford87) July 24, 2024

You should be embarrassed @karren_brady but more money for you. Get out of our club https://t.co/VSFg4ceja5— Gizz (@boreham_gary) July 22, 2024

£790 West Ham. Joining the protest against their scandalous policy doing away with concession pricing.— Nik Frampton (@FramptonNik) July 23, 2024

This #westham is what’s it all about the protest & boycott
Even if you’ve bought a ticket unwittingly please do not go
The future is our kids if they don’t get the “habit” there is no future
We don’t have the international fanbase that can sell out the bowl#saveourconcessions https://t.co/nbAtwZH8sn— gantshillhammer⚒????️ (@gantshillhammer) July 18, 2024

Adult West Ham ticket: €142

Hertha BSC season ticket: €169

Football fans in England are being absolutely rinsed and it's an absolute pisstake. Hope to see some organised protest against it all. ???? https://t.co/wdUkVTyjiS— Joey Corlett ???????? (@JoeyCorlett) July 24, 2024
