I love our club and our fans and defend them to the hilt, but to have only sold 2200 at ten quid a ticket for Sunday given our position is shocking isn't it?
We took that to Darlington last day of season on the chance of nicking a play off place in div 3. If I running that Club I would have put the tickets on gemetal sale.
Secondly, I would be looking ahead to Sheff Utd and Norwich and thinking how I could help our support for two long trips.
We have 3 away games in 12 days, 2 of which are on Sky, you can't expect fans to go to them all, loads will go to Villa in the middle but I can see poor turnouts at Sheffield and Norwich so why don't the Club subsisize one or both. Norwich are charging Reading 25 quid so if they subsidised it to ten quid and we took 2000 it would cost them 30k a weeks wages for a couple of players.
Some will disagree but I wish our club would do this type of thing, other Clubs do it
Good ideas but watch out. i recently got laughed at on here for suggesting fans be subsidised to go to the match.
Don't get why you would be laughed at mate.
To go to Norwich, Sheffield and Villa would cost the best part of £100 for tickets alone, same at the very least for the travel, add on spending money your looking upwards of £300 in 12 days to watch us on the road, gooder luck to anyone who can afford that.
With the money that's in football what's so funny with a Club or its players subsidising it's SUPPORTERS once in a while?
I'd love to do all 3 but will only be doing one and as the other two are on Sky in going to go to Norwich
It'll cost even more in the prem. Pricing out the working class. This is why i have a love/ hate relationship with modern football.
