Liverpool have pledged to involve supporters in future ticket price rises.

The club had faced criticism from the board representing fans after bringing in a two per cent rise for general admission and matchday seats.

That's not going to be reversed, but officials say they will change their approach.

Joint statement from Liverpool FC and its Supporters Board

Liverpool FC and its Supporters Board have issued the following joint statement.

Today, representatives from LFC and the Supporters Board met to discuss engagement processes and the recent two per cent ticket price rise announced for general admission and matchday tickets.

LFC confirmed that its decision on the two per cent rise will not be reversed.

LFC has agreed to review and improve its engagement approach in collaboration with the Supporters Board as it was acknowledged by both parties that more meaningful engagement over ticket prices is required.

Membership prices were on the agenda for discussion during the meeting. LFC had proposed a small rise for next season but both parties have agreed to pause on this until more meaningful engagement can take place between LFC and the Supporters Board.
