I AM a life-long Blackburn fan, but after reading about Burnley FC's new season ticket pricing for the under 16s at £35, I must take my hat off to them and say well done.

I have a nine-year-old son who I have been taking to watch Rovers here and there for the last three seasons.

Now that he has started to take a real interest, he asked me if we could buy season tickets for next season.

But at the prices these days I will find it very difficult. If football clubs are after getting more young people into stadiums instead of being sat in front of the television, they should reflect that in their prices.
