Rob Lee's testminonial ticket prices

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Can't helping thinking that £20 per seat is too much. There are admittedly some family deals, but it's before the season starts, comes after unexpected InterToto expense. I'd have thought that they should be looking at about £15 per person...

Agree - too pricey.

It would be OK if the money were going to a good cause - something like a Fairs Cup Veteran Fans Fund or something, but if the money simply goes to a millionaire it rankles somewhat.

Still I will want to see it to pay my respects to a guy who's given sold great service during a very exciting part of our history. It would be nice if the FA or whoever would draw up strict rules on what happens to the cash from these things.

I'm sure he would have been happier with £37.

Apparently tickets for Ryan Giggs' testimonial start at £20 and go up to £30. Jesus, thirty quid AND the danger he'll take his shirt off.

Bliddy hell, g'wan an' gi' Robbie a great day.... he deserves it!!! If there's one damn player wearin the B&W who DESERVES to wear it is Rob Lee. The General is a true legend, and ye should na be procrastinatin over whether 20 pounds is too much....too much maybe for players the like of Gazza or Waddle... but definitely not too much for Robert.
