They can have 65% if they want it because we won’t sell many.

If they can sell them let them have them.

 

Id make this dirt cheap for all fans if there gonna bring some, especially if it’s a Saturday afternoon.

 

Get free tickets to schools offered out pay on the gate at a tenner and season tickets a fiver. Kids in for nothing.

the problem with that is you would have the kop and grandstand for sale which will involve paying an extra 1-200 staff who need paying . if you cant afford a tenner or a fiver to attend then it wont make much difference if its a fiver . there are loads of other costs attending a game, travel, pre match food/drink and sometimes if you have kids like bolton away they end up in bowling ally ,kfc, shops etc . nothing is cheap any more , i think our prices are sound and at the right level .

i  agree regards schools though and for some games giving a few tickets to schools or local football teams , get them hooked early and they want to go regularly .

Reight idea! Kids in the ground means one or two adults paying,then kids want food,maybe a walk round the shop. It makes complete sense. These kids will almost certainly become full paying punters eventually. Get em hooked now!

Every club that has thousands of empty seats on a matchday should be doing this to get the next generation hooked.

THey are two down to Bradford right now

It's been proved numerous times that cheaper tickets makes no difference to attendance figures what so ever 

 

Fancy opposition (top 6 premier league team ) or leeds and pigs gets the people in the ground

This is true unfortunately. Couldn't even get 10k last Friday for a weekend fixture that was very well priced.

That was our starting 11 against Mansfield this time last year in pizza cup, squad looks so much better now with more strength in depth

I suppose they might if Thier hoping for some bad blood and drama because of the Fernando incident.. They won't have prem teams around or some champ clubs due to the world cup nonsense ,so sky wil want to show games.

Sky don't have rights to the FA Cup.

 

There aren't many standout games in the round 2 draw so there's an outside chance we'd be picked, but they'll probably just focus on the non-league teams tbh like Alvechurch and Buxton even when they're away from home.
