It's actually going to be cheaper to buy a season ticket for the majority of Scottish and Enlgish clubs than what it will be to watch football on TV. A season ticket for my local club, Falkirk, is only £225.00. You can get a season ticket for most English Championship clubs from between £350.00 to £550.00

Maybe people should start thinking about going back to football and putting their money back into their local clubs, and enjoying a day out at the game, rather than lining the pockets of SKY, ESPN and BT.

Thats all very well Chad buts lets say you pay £20 a ticket for each match then you are still looking at £100 a month then theres food/drink and transport costs which will push the costs up considerably and then put that against the combined costs of Sky/ESPN and BT then its still much cheaper to watch sport at home in the comfort of your own home.
