The BBC Sport study recorded the most expensive and cheapest matchday and season tickets, and added in the cost of pies, programmes and cups of tea to calculate the full cost of watching a match.

The average cost of the cheapest adult ticket in the top four divisions of English football has risen by 11.7% - more than five times the rate of inflation.

Arsenal are the most expensive club to go and watch for the second successive year, with the most expensive season ticket costing £1,955.00.

The highest price of a day out at a football match in England, Wales and Scotland has gone from £109 to £134.30 in just 12 months.

Only three of the English league clubs offer days out for less than £20, whilst half of the 42 Scottish league teams do.

What do all of these figures mean? Does it matter that Leeds United sell the most expensive programmes in the UK? Why is a cup of tea so expensive in Manchester? And why does it cost £4 for a pie at Kidderminster?

No doubt this study will be discussed at hundreds of pubs and football grounds across the country this weekend. How do you think the prices at your favourite club compare with others? What would you do differently if you were in charge?

As a part of the study, BBC Radio 5 live's Rachel Burden took her children to watch a game at two local teams at opposite ends of the football league - Manchester City and Stockport County. Click here to watch what happened.

So that brings us to our final question, have any of you stopped going to watch your team due to high prices? Have you started to watch a local amateur team instead?

We'd love to hear your story!
