RIBBLE Valley MP Nigel Evans is calling on the English, Scottish and Northern Ireland Football Associations to provide cheap tickets for families in the wake of a successful experiment by their Welsh counterpart.
At last Wednesday's international between Wales and Finland at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, tickets were available at £5 and £3. The Tory constitutional spokesman said: "The atmosphere was extremely family oriented and furthermore there were no arrests before or after the game.
"All other football associations must follow this example."
