Dynamic Pricing of Football Tickets

Yeah it needs to be nipped in the bud before it gets going, at least on these shores. 

Football clubs are known for fleecing fans these days so it wouldn't surprise me if clubs are already thinking of incorporating it. 

Put simply, it just cannot be allowed to start. There's already categorisations/banding of games for tickets for most clubs - but at least the fan knows what they'll need to pay at any point before the fixture. It just cannot be fair that the closer the event or more demand it has, then you have to pay more. 

Football clubs should be serving of the fans and looking out for their best interests, not to mention during a cost-of-living crisis or where money is tight for the average match-goer. Take Dusseldorf for example - they are looking at making ways to be resourceful and making home games free of charge (is this still a thing @Tommy?). Once again a German club showing the way to be protective of the fans' interests, not seek out to exploit as much money out of them as possible.

Yes, as a matter of fact they added one more game this season. Last season there were 3 games for free, and this season there will be 4.

This does need nipping in the bud but I worry about whether there's any individuals or bodies that have both the desire and the authority to stop it from taking off.

You know that those morally responsible bodies like UEFA and FIFA will be all for this sort of thing.

It's up to fans to not let it happen at the end of the day. Fans successfully lobbied the Premier League to introduce away ticket prices caps and there's also away price caps in UEFA competitions now which are reducing. Make enough noise and they can't not listen.
