Dick_Valentine Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Good to see us on the list, but no Bury & Rochdale? Can understand Bury with all their little knob heads, but Rochdale? https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/aug/19/ten-of-the-best-non-premier-league-family-friendly-football-clubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 A couple of things Latics could and should do to enhance this: 1) Not try to sign convicted rapists. 2) Make 16-18 year old ground admission concessionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Mikey Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Oh and Millwall, really?Maybe they could have a friendly against Leeds to celebrate them both being on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 2) Make 16-18 year old ground admission concessionary. Do they still do the intermediary season ticket? It's probably the main reason I started attending regularly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Do they still do the intermediary season ticket? It's probably the main reason I started attending regularly! Yes. £180. Excellent value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_blue Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Under 16 should be free I reckon and 16-18 on the cheaper season ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanuts Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Under 16 should be free I reckon and 16-18 on the cheaper season ticket. 0-7 free 8-14 £3 15-18 £7 18-65 full price 65+ £7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor evil Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 0-7 free 8-14 £3 15-18 £7 18-65 full price 65+ £7 That full price would have to be £30 to make up for the other prices..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticsmarra Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Make the intermediately season ticket U-23... Save me a :censored: tonne for another two years! I've been going on about this for years, but they don't get it. 18-23 Year olds can't afford to go and we lose a good percentage of our young support during that changing period of their lives,when they need every incentive to keep going to matches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not. It's a shame because I genuinely love my Saturday afternoons at Boundary Park, albeit it can be the most frustating two hours of the week.

HarryBosch Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I've been going on about this for years, but they don't get it. 18-23 Year olds can't afford to go An 18-23 year old without a family that works can probably afford to go moreso than many 35 year old blokes with families who work. An 18-23 year old who doesn't work can't afford to go just as much as anybody else who doesn't work. What's age got to do with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythemostimportantkick Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) An 18-23 year old without a family that works can probably afford to go moreso than many 35 year old blokes with families who work. An 18-23 year old who doesn't work can't afford to go just as much as anybody else who doesn't work. What's age got to do with it? Exactly this Harry !! When I was in the 18-23 bracket is when I hardly missed an away game let alone home game. Now I'm in the almost 35 bracket with a nipper of my own makes it more difficult to afford. It's not really an age thing rather a change of circumstances and priorities. I've so far been to Wigan and Preston only, some of it is down to work commitments but I will be thinking twice about how to spend my 20 odd quid if I have free time.
