Swansea to Subsidise Away Tickets for Fans, Keeping Cost to £22

Swansea City have revealed plans to subsidise the cost of away tickets to fans for the 2015/16 season.

The scheme, named "True to 22," will mean no adult ticket will cost more than £22, whilst concession tickets will be capped at £15 and just £10 for kids.

Fair play to @SwansOfficial, great to see a club taking steps forward to support loyal away fans. Proper club, run the right way.

Vice-chairman Leigh Dineen explained the details behind the deal on the Swansea City website:

"

We worked hard on reducing away ticket prices for our supporters last season through reciprocal deals with other clubs. Unfortunately, we were unable to finalise deals with all the clubs for different reasons.

Therefore, while we introduced other away fan benefits, we felt it would be more beneficial to our supporters if we took the step of guaranteeing them cheaper tickets for all our away games, whether there was a reciprocal deal in place or not.

"

The move is sure to be welcomed by fans, with some away tickets previously costing in excess of £50.
