Premier League clubs also continue to cap away ticket prices at all matches at £30.</p><p> </p><p>The cost of attending football matches and a fair deal for all fans is however something that must be kept under constant review by football, and I will continue to raise this in my regular discussions with the football authorities.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 13/09/2018 16:44:09 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
