Bullets increases gate charges for Al Hilal match

March 23, 2015 Elijah Phimbi -Nyasa Times 39 Comments

Tough time awaits Bullets and Malawian soccer fanatics at large as they expect to dig deeper into their pockets to watch the continental Confederation of African Football (CAF) tie between host Big Bullets and Sudanese Champions Al Hilal.

This follows the announcement by Bullets that F.C that the price tag for the match in open stands has been doubled to K2, 000.00.

MBC stands will be at K4,000.000 while covered stands and VIP stands will be at K5,000.00 and K10,000.00 respectively.

When Bullets hosted Fomboni F.C in the return leg of the CAF preliminary round at the giant Kamuzu Stadium few weeks ago, the get charge for open stands was at K1, 000.00.

But Bullets through their General Secretary Harold Forte said people should not complain regarding the issue that Malawian gate charges are very low comparing to other countries.

“We have the discretion to determine the prices of tickets. Bullets is a big team. When you compare the prices in the other countries, our prices are affordable. People should just be prepared to pay the set price” Forte told the press.

He further said that the decision has been made as part of crowd control following the huge turn up of people in the recent CAF assignment against Fomboni which almost caused a stampede.

“There was huge patronage during the Fomboni match and we almost had a stampede. The higher gate charges will help us control entry into the stadium” he said.

According to the General Secretary, the club is targeting to raise K35 Million to help the club paying back debts amounting to over K20 Million.

Among other debts, the club borrowed air tickets to enable them travel to Sudane as well as other expenses for hosting Fomboni F.C.

Bullets will be going into the Al Hilal match with a 4-0 deficit having lost the first leg away in Khartoum Sudan.

  5. elijah ukaphunzileso kulemba nkhani…dont write bullets borrowed the tickets but rather got the tickets on credit….its not tht they will return them but rather pay for them later

  6. When two mad people quarrel, people do not see any difference. Nomads therefore forgive these people. Let them lose in their next encounter alone. They should not place blame on Nyerere for their demise which is looming. We will just help them by escorting them to the mortuary. Period.

  8. The money is too huge,bullets is already in danger zone and u are hicking gatefee.you want people not to go to your second defeat.sorry neba plz bwezanikoni mtengo mwadula.

  17. Bullets, be realistic! The supporter’s moral is already down and you expect them to pay double the gate fee? You are kidding! You may endup accumulating more debts. Poor planning indeed.

  21. I am a Bullets fanatic but raising the gate charges to K2000 thousand kwacha is just too much for a game which we know already that we are out of the race. Comparing our gate charges with other countries is just a dream.

    How can you compare Malawian standard of football with other countries? Our economt is already in shambles. Where do you expect people to get money from? Even the government is failing to pay teachers, buying drugs in the hospitals. More over this game was supposed to be free so that for the love of the game our team should progress to the next round.

  23. ku bullets ku kuli mbuli ndithu game yoti mukuluza 4-0 kuyidulitsa choncho????…anzanu ku sudan unali waulele kuti fans ikamenye morale kwambiri…kunena zowona amene wapanga izi ndi munthu opanda nzeru kwambiri..

  32. Hahahahaha kupempha kwalephereka ndiye mwati mukweze. Kkkkk anthu omvetsa chisoni inu kaya muonanso mbwadza.

  35. This is a miscalculation! At MK1,000 on the open stands, patronage could have been lower as the tie is considered lost already. Doubling the charges is therefore madness.

  36. Angonena zina osati kupanga control anthu.anthu atha kudzalowanso ambiri kuposa momwe akuganizira.angonena zoti akufuna apezerepo ndalama zobweza ngongole basi
