Supporters in the West Midlands will tell you that it’s been a miserable time of late following their under-performing clubs.

It’s even worse if you’re a Birmingham City fan, though, because a season ticket at St Andrew’s officially represents the worst value for money in the entire Championship.

Supporters have had to stump up a whopping £23.82 per point this term and they’re paying £12.83 per goal in this dismal season of home turf horror shows.

Blues are currently on a record-breaking run of league games (15) without a win but they distanced themselves from the bottom three with a crucial away win at the weekend.

Our findings reveal that a season-ticket at either Villa or Albion this campaign actually represents half-decent value for money.

That’s in relation to other clubs across the Premier League, of course.

Villa have been shocking at times this season - their home form hit new lows this weekend when they recorded a record-breaking tenth home league defeat of the campaign.

Albion have been dreadful at The Hawthorns, too.

The Baggies haven’t won under Pepe Mel at home and the last time they got three points, or even kept a clean sheet, was back on January 1.

We’ve worked out that Albion fans have to pay £20.53 per point and £18.37 per goal at home.

Villains are forking out £19.12 per point and £17.11 per goal.

If positive results are not forthcoming then fans at least want to see some entertainment from their team.

They pay their hard-earned money for a seat each week and although season tickets are reasonably priced in this region, supporters still want value for money.

The graphs above suggest that, despite all the doom and gloom, they are actually getting some return for their cash.

You may or may not agree with that.

But what you can’t deny is that it could be worse.

Sunderland fans pay £33.33 per point - more than any other club.

And Tottenham supporters have to stump up £40.26 to see their team score.

Manchester City have the best value for money ticket in the Premier League with fans spending just £7.12 a point and £5.75 for a City goal.

All the above figures are based on the cheapest season ticket price for each Premier League club as per the BBC cost of sport survey.
