Bonek blame price rises
I was surprised to see the attendance at yesterday's ISL game between Persebaya and Bontang given as less than 4,000. This for a newly promoted side rich in tradition who took 6,000 to their play off against PSMS at Soreang earlier in the year.
It seems the club's supporters, known as Bonek, are peeved at the hike in ticket prices.
Old price New price
15,000 25,000
30,000 50,000
50,000 100,000
They play Persisam with both club and fans hoping a compromise can be met. A 10,000 rupiah (1 USD) may not seem much but to hardcore footbal fans on neglible incomes it is a helluva lot.
