The last few years have seen a lot of the older generation move on in one way or another, but they haven't been replaced by a new one yet.

Many of the youngsters from 5 years ago are now in the Canton, but we don't seem to have attracted many new families to the club despite very good prices.

Maybe it needs a Ridsdale type gimmick - price freeze even if we go up or something.

Most of the difference is also down to a drop in season ticket numbers which I'm sure were pushing 18-20k and are now 13-14k

There never has been a consistently big walk up except for one off big games or offers.

I also think that as a club City need to do more to advertise how cheap the tickets are and maybe simplify the price structure for walk up crowds.

Although in fairness in recent times the club has been trying hard.
The family stand tickets were free to kids under 11 for a few seasons , which is why our gates were so high. In relative terms it's about the same if the season ticket sales are around 14,000 this year.
