Clubs are greedy and it's not just in England. Everyone should learn from the germans regarding this issue; Bundesliga is the only relevant league with proper ticket prices.

This, even here in Belgium the prices are too high.

My season ticket for OHL, a club that struggles with relegation is around 250 euros

A football club is not a human being, it can't be greedy. Clubs are for profit organisations that aim to please their shareholders and pay out dividends, just like any other business. Fans are customers and players are employees.

Until a system is adopted where fans own the majority of the club, it won't change. You can't really blame a corporation for trying to make a profit, instead enact laws to restrict their influence and involve fans more.

It may be cheap, but you have to pay actual money to watch German football.
