Oxford United has the Ox4Life kids scheme external-link to help boost the number of junior supporters. Despite the difficult economic times we live in, prices at some clubs and at some levels of the game are still exceedingly high," Malcolm Clarke, chairman of the Football Supporters' Federation, said.

Shaun Harvey, Football League chief executive: "Football League clubs continue to offer compelling football at a price that is affordable. Crowds in the Football League increased by 136,000 last season. The Championship had a total audience of more than 9.1m fans, at an average of over 16,500 per match. Only the Premier League (13.9m), Germany's Bundesliga (13.1m) and Spain's La Liga (10m) can boast more fans through the turnstiles in Europe. Therefore I would be asking clubs, 'are your fans happier today than they were five years ago with the experience that they get, the value for money that they feel they're getting?'" West Ham have brought down their prices, external-link as they prepare to move to the Olympic Stadium in the summer.

The Chairboys join Yeovil and Oxford as the only three clubs in the league to put down prices in all four categories we analysed. How much to pay to go away? If you look at the prices of entertainment across the board they have gone up significantly in recent years and clearly we now have an environment where people are economically challenged. I certainly think that our clubs in Scotland make a real effort to ensure that football is accessible," Scottish Premier League chief executive Neil Doncaster told BBC Sport.

You have to pay extra for the Premier League logo, the name of players, numbers, and kids are being ripped off."Premier League clubs knew before they had even set their prices for this season that they would be due a substantial windfall from the new TV deal." Shadow sports minister Clive Efford MP said the "inflation-busting" increases "just cannot be acceptable", while business leader Justin King, former chief executive of Sainsbury's, believes clubs need to ensure they are providing value for money to fans if they want to be sustainable. Kevin and Kieran take a detailed look at Manchester City's latest accounts, and discuss the news that the prize money for the Women's FA Cup has doubled.
