Doncaster fan spends £5,200 on World Cup tickets - including £3,100 final pass
A football fan from Doncaster has joked he has “got a kidney for sale” after forking out a whopping £5,200 to watch England at this summer’s World Cup – including a ticket for the final at an eye watering £3,100.
Leeds United supporter Jake Beales-Hobson, who lives in Doncaster, has revealed that he paid £3,129 for a final ticket after applying via the FA.
The match is scheduled to be played at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey in the United States on July 19 – although whether England will be in it is anyone’s guess.
If England are knocked out, fans will be able to get refunds.
Jake told The Sun: “I’m almost half-hoping we don’t make it to the final.
“Ticket prices are scandalous, but imagine if we win. It’d be priceless.”
He added that he had “got a kidney for sale” after forking out a total of £5,278 for the tournament across the USA, Mexico and Canada this summer.
