I keep reading things like this, but why punish their fans too, when it's the two greedy owners at fault.

“Full price items only, 1 voucher per transaction.”Probably find in the small print that it can't even be used against sale items
Why the fuck should we be bullied by Leeds?
Why is their default price £45? Surely that is the biggest question.
People want the club run in a more professional manner, maximising revenues so we can move forward Ticket categorization is valid in the league rules. Shame for Leeds fans but that is their problem. We shouldn't have to bend to another clubs wishes, was there even mention of them matching the £37 ours are capped at? No, stinks of a big club being entitled to me.
Will still sell out before general sale if they give us around 2k. Simple supply and demand.NEWS: Coventry City issues update on Leeds United away tickets and prices
Coventry City have been unable to come to an agreement with Leeds United regarding ticket pricing for away fans for our league games this season.www.ccfc.co.uk
Organised boycott?

Regardless of our response...
The 'We urge Coventry City to reconsider their position' from the Leeds supporters club is laughable.
Cheeky pricks.
We've not come to an agreement with Leeds in order to maximise our profits,why, in that case, would we limit them to 500?
We're just as complicit in this as they are and will be charging the likes of Hull and Cardiff substantially more than they charged us so we can't take the moral high ground.
I have no issue with getting prices down. But the way Leeds have gone about it is shitty IMO and designed to set other clubs up to look the bad guy if they don’t give in to demands. There’s no negotiation, it’s a demand and for me that’s the difference.
I'm going to nick a wheelchair from Tesco and start dribbling, take the wife as a carer. Sorted!

Yeah, why didn't they negotiate. Maybe Doug could have knocked a quid or two off their ticket and match £35.
Although, with Doug's record, he wouldn't have even wanted to knock a quid off.

The £15 voucher with a spend of £60 is just about the worst, greediest offer the club could have made.
Doug King & Coventry are completely in the wrong here. Anyone blaming Leeds need to take their head for a wobble.

Its not really - the £15 will in many cases not even make profit on a £60 purchase
No voucher is even worse.I would say a £15 voucher with a spend of £61 is worse...

The club didn’t have to offer anything.So it’s bad PR, makes the club look greedy, and doesn’t actually raise any money. Fantastic.
Preston home pricing behind the goal for this match is £30. They have reduced that by a whole £2 for the away end (Leeds fans).£28, 5,646 tickets
@pusbccfc I get you go to very game and have an understandable vested interest in not wanting to pay £45 to go to Leeds, but the hard economic reality is that CCFC don't make a penny from your supporting us there. Leeds is one of the games that is likely to provide one of our bigger crowds at home, so it really makes no sense for the club to reduce prices for Leeds fans and lose money in the process. The reason Leeds are able to charge so much is all connected to the laws of supply and demand, which we are simply applying to their fans in return.

Probably will , we haven't played Leeds for years and Elland Road is a ground I need to tick off , as do many .I'm not sure it will
TBH I’m not sure either. The fact there is so much of a backlash suggest that the proposal has been counter productive, but all those complaining should remember that the club didn’t have to offer anything. Leeds are basically bullying other clubs and a better response than capitulation would be for fans to boycott that scummy club. CCFC have offered something to fans which will cost the club very little, but could have some value to some people.Im not sure if you’re trying to help my point, but yes and its entirely self inflicted.
Have you seen the quality of the stuff in the club shop? Its cheap rubbish, probably from China. I'd be surprised if the cost price of one of the £35 t-shirts was more than £5.
