Mascot fee just £700 with West Ham

Refreshing to know we’re the most expensive in the league. Ripping our fans off to the ‘nth’ degree.
Fucking outrageous.

They have about 15 a game or something too which completely devalues the experience.
Lying, money grabbing, fan scamming cunts.

Read about this on the BBC website, £700?. Some of our supporters must want their heads testing for paying this in the first place.

Or be properly wedged up and want to hand over loads to the over paid tired players for losing so often at home

Not sure but in the old days was there even a charge for being matchday mascot? If so it would've been a nominal fee I expect.

Was just thinking the same. If they have 10 mascots for each home game, at 700 pounds a pop, that's around 150,000 quid a year. I suppose every little bit of income adds up, but for this it leaves a slightly unpleasant taste.

West Ham United £700
Leicester City £600
Tottenham Hotspur £405
Wolves £395
Crystal Palace £375
Brighton £350
Burnley £300
Fulham £270
Cardiff City £255
Watford £250
Bournemouth £185
Free: Arsenal, Everton, Chelsea, Huddersfield, Liverpool, Man City, Man United, Newcastle United and Southampton.
Mascots at the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United are picked at random from their junior fan club and are free.
Disgraceful greed on the part of Brady - I can only imagine this is an operational decision by her.

Is this correct?
Class friend of my son got picked randomly (with others) from the shop before the match..
They weren't charged.

Be fair. Brady has an expensive house in Belgravia to maintain, plus the burden of an unemployed husband who probably takes his cut from the mascots fees for his pocket money.

I can’t believe all the kids who are match day mascots all pay £700. Surely there is also a random selection as well? If not that is shocking.

I’m not 100% sure this is true, not taking the boards side of things, but I genuinely know 3 people who have had kids as mascots.
Two got picked out randomly, the other was charged 300 which included the day, 3 tickets including the mascots.
I think my mate who paid said if you want, and choose a certain game of preference, it costs more.
And I know for a fact Arsenal do charge, my nephew was mascot at Arsenal West Ham, I’m his god father.. i was there that night and it wasn’t free.

A little digging on the journalism is interesting.
https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/premier-league-clubs-charging-children-13331477
This article in September has Everton top with £718. I guess they could have dropped it altogether in the last few months.
A precursor to this was the Guardian study from 2014, which has us top with £600
