Re: Let's Fill the Stadium

Can't really see why the club are being criticised for this?

They’re not being criticised for providing half price tickets. They’re being criticised because of the 3 home games we have left, the West Brom game is significantly less important to have a big crowd and a good atmosphere.

It’s one step forwards, one step back. People have been saying all season to have cheap tickets, kids for a quid, freebies to schools, etc and when the club finally does it, they fumble the execution.

Because that would have made sense

Re: Let's Fill the Stadium

Another stellar move from the club. Half price tickets for the final home game of the season against a team 14 places higher, and when our fate might be sealed. And not for the 2 home games against our direct relegation rivals with it all to play for….

Exactly, they should be doing it for Stoke and Oxford, typically, completely out of touch. I bet we are down by West Brom home anyway

Because the two home games before are vital to the season, we have to win them

True, but I doubt other clubs are reducing any tickets and.....

....I was about to say it may be our most important game of the season....

And then Preston score and yeah, maybe we will be down by then?!

We’ve got a right bunch of miserable c*nts on here 😂

Re: Let's Fill the Stadium

How can people not see this is a ridiculous game to pick by the club? We’ve got two absolutely huge games against teams near the bottom that will define our season (one on Easter Monday where you could tempt families down etc) and they’ve made the offer for a game where we will probably lose and potentially a dead rubber.

Common sense says to bundle all 3 games together for Ł30 odd and get 22k+ at all 3 games but we all know that common sense is lacking

Clearly most people can.

Yeah sorry my rant was aimed at people saying why are people moaning !!

Re: Let's Fill the Stadium

We are unbeaten in 4 now.

Could be unbeaten in 7 by time of the west from game.

Makes sense for the club to try and cash in on all the good feeling.

Two big home games next 2 weeks we need your support. Now is not the time for division, negativity and abuse. We need to be together and passionate.
Stoke and Oxford declined cheap ticket deals because they want our stadium empty.
They will fear a full passionate city stadium

Can an away team decide how much we charge for tickets? I know there’s reciprocal arrangements in cup games but I’ve never heard of this for league games.

We’re at a point where people would complain about anything.

I doubt very much our fate will be sealed either way by then

If we don't win those two games, it very much will be

I believe, if we offer our fans a discount, the same discount has to be applied to the away team .

Not 100% sure, but I think it’s been mentioned in the past

That's my thinking too. Theres every chance it is the key game of the season, arguably the most important game of the last 3-4 years snd we are being offered half price tickets.
