City have been fined by the Premier League for away fan prices

Birmingham City have been found guilty of discriminatory in several Premier League matches last season.

 

Sunderland AFC reported the Blues to the PL after a game at St Andrewsa year ago, fans complained of over-priced tickets, food & drink in the away end compaired to the prices paid by Birmingham City fans in the home end.

 

The league found that BCFC were indeed charging away fans more for the same standard of service. Birmingham are in breach of Premier League Rule J9 and have been fined £30,000 and all leagal costs.

 

Birmingham City have said they will not appeal.
