FSG Hold Talks With Liverpool Officials Over Proposed Ticket Prices

According to report the Fenway Sports Group and Liverpool's senior management team have held talks over whether to review the new ticket price structure.

On Saturday, a significant number of Liverpool supporters staged a 77th-minute walk out of the home match with Sunderland in protest at next season's ticket prices. Liverpool were leading 2-0 at the time of the walkout, but let their lead slip in the final eight minutes at Anfield as Sunderland struck twice to snatch a point. The fan groups Spion Kop 1906 and Spirit of Shankly, who organised the protest, claimed the show of dissent towards the club's decision to raise ticket prices was just the start of their opposition.

Prior to the match with Sunderland, Ayre defended the club's stance and suggested the supporters should be careful what they wish for. Liverpool are currently proposing to increase the price of certain match tickets from £59 to £77 and also announced a £1,000 season ticket.

Liverpool argue the new structure offers greater accessibility and affordability. This includes 45 per cent of match ticket prices decreasing, 64 per cent of season tickets reduced or staying the same in cost and around 1500 £9 tickets for category C games
