Cheapest England ticket you have ever bought

With all the doom and gloom at present here is something a little different 

what is the cheapest ticket you ever bought for a england game ?
mate I go with was looking at his euro 88 tickets which were a fiver each . Had a look at my euro 92 tickets which was in Sweden and I think the group games were £20 each but if memory serves me we got tickets for the friendly in russia  in 92 from the ground and not through the FA and they were 50 p 

I know that was slightly cheating but how low can you go ?

    Well this is a question that got me going through my ticket collection, which is sadly incomplete.

    The cheapest home ticket I can find is for England v USA in 1994 (which is nowhere near my first game) and that was £18:00.

    The first trip to Montenegro was only 10 Euros, it's only really the FA that rip us off.

    I went to the Euro U21 in the Czech Republic in 2015 and saw England v Denmark for £3.42.

    Correction England v Australia at Upton Park in 2003 was only £17.00 and with a quick google my England v Northern Ireland in 1985 would have been £4.00.

    I went to an England School Boy International v Germany at Wembley in 1977. A similar game in 1980 was 75p for a ticket, so i'd guess I (or my Dad) paid about 50p.

    Hi mate weren’t they a fiver? Or was it 5 euros ? Is this the game when they give all the money to charity and Spain choose the team they play against. Must admit I forgot all about this game wasn’t it October, November time

    Gotta look at the last away game we attended......Nov 2019 Kosovo for a fiver. I also had a couple of complimentary tickets whilst serving......Cyprus away 1975 and NI away 1979 so free.....Cyprus was my first England game.

    They turned the heating off soon as the game finished and kept us in for ages

    £6 Paraguay in the Azteca Mexico City 1986. This after watching the last group game in the pub back home before flying out the following morning, and at half time Jim Rosenthal was on holding up a ticket saying if you haven’t got a ticket don’t bother coming out, it’s just cost £100 for a ticket for the first knock out game against Paraguay.

    We got tickets for our 2-1 win in Slovakia in 2002 from a Bratislava travel agent, after I sent them a random email asking about airport transfers. They cost about £7. They even posted them to my house before we set off there. They were in the home end, but there was a few of us in there. All soaking wet, as it was uncovered & had rained for the previous 2 days.

    Fair play mate would have loved to have gone but being only 16 and no one else wanting to go it wasn’t to be . I won’t be very popular saying this but euro 96 was a turning point for following England

    5 Euros I’m sure think the FA charged more in postage than the price of the ticket.

    They sent me four in a strip.

    Couldn’t give the others away.

    Sure it was around November time.

    Yes it was November and regards postage that sounds about write

    This century and officially it was either Spain away (around 4 quid) or Ukraine away (with refund) around a 5er.
    Back in the day... ahem free ahem.

    Won't count as it was Wales but I went to the Malta v Wales match in 1979 and paid 30 Maltese cents (about 40p I think) for my ticket. I remember it was the schoolboy price
