Atlético Madrid Ticket Prices and Discounts Step in Right Direction From FC Barcelona Board

Barely 12 hours had passed since FC Barcelona's heroic 1-2 victory over Atlético Madrid when the club put tickets to the next showdown between the two La Liga giants at the start of December on sale to members.
Every time an e-mail comes in announcing that the exclusive 24 hour presale window has begun, socis brace themselves for how bad the damage will be.
They're collectively scarred from the cheapest tickets for the Clasico ranging from €500-1000, and Manchester City coming in at €200 ahead of dynamic pricing then cutting stretched pockets even deeper.
Something that didn't help in the slightest either were pitiful discounts of 5% and 10% respectively, begging the question of what the point is in being a member of a club essentially owned by them.
