Philb125 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Isn’t it a reduced cost game? And don’t we have megathreads bemoaning that if we reduce prices, fans will flock? I’m puzzled by some of the low numbers quoted here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hillsborough Mole Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Our family has 6 season tickets. Only me attending (and I'm in 2 minds of I can be bothered to go and watch the reserves) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Well I'm taking 2 to their first ever game so that should be interesting in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfield Owl Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Unattractive opposition. Three home games in a week. Days before payday, when many wont have the cash ready. Probably going to rest several star players ahead of the Reading game. A whole summer of no signings. Mixed results to start to the season. I’ll be there. But I certainly can’t criticise those fans that chose to give this one a miss. No more than 14,000 there tonight IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season ticket holders will all be there, and then there's the casual fans or those attracted by the low price so should be rammed Take something extra special to achieve rammed status , get your point though .

Striggy Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Well I shall be there, with two other ST holders and 2 who for various reasons are not.

I'm fine yeah It's just that we get told repeatedly that Season Ticket holders are the hardcore base of our fanbase, who support the club no matter what, and no matter who the opposition. That season ticket holders don't pick and choose their games, and that those who do pick and choose games aren't real fans etc etc It's going to be real awkward for those who try saying that from now on if the season ticket holders boycott this game Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't fancy a cup game it is easy for them to opt out. I doubt you can put all ST holders in one bucket anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know season tickets only cover cup games don't you? I'm baffled why you've made this thread and are seemingly using it to hammer season ticket holders that aren't going tonight.
