(Reuters) - West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis wants the price of Premier League away tickets to be fixed at 10 pounds as a measure to combat rising matchday costs for fans that he believes could kill the atmosphere within top flight stadiums.

The pressure on clubs to make the sport more affordable has gathered momentum in recent weeks with Liverpool owners reneging on plans to increase ticket prices next season following a mass fan walkout to protest the move last weekend.
