Is it ticket only?

 

No its pay on the door so would expect another 200-300 at least on top of that, but last yr th is the sort of game where we would have easilly filled our allocation. And does anyone remember taking over 3000 to huddersfield????

 

Sad times when we cant even muster 1000 to go to stockport

you wouldn't keep going back to the same restaurant week in week out, if they kept churning out overpriced crap food.

 

 

Football, if you are a geninue supporter of a team, is unlike most other goods in a capitalist economy. Consumption is not 100% linked to quality and/or cost.

 

Its a big like ciggerettes / petrol - put the price up, listen to the grumbling and complaining, a very small percentage change their habits (give up smoking, try to use the car less) and the vast majority continue to pay.

 

If you are a genuine supporter, there isn't an alterntive good (go and watch Rugby? Go and watch another team?...rarely happen s) so its crap football or no football.

 

Sustained poor performance over a number of years results in the 'very small percentage' adding up after a while to something noticable - we have lost about 1000 core support over the last 5 years to this.

theres always a few beers in the pub with your mates and sky sports...

 

 

i think the dwindling attendances this season speak volumes.

people are not putting up with the crap anymore.

they are seeing £20 entrance cost put to better use.

whatever happens this season,up or down,the club is being run into the ground,and hardcore are picking their games or completely stopping going.

season ticket sales next season will be mediocre.

 

the futures bright...but not on this side of the hill.

If I recall rightly for the same fixture last season we were allocated 1600, filled it with ease and some latics fans sat in the home end?

 

This time round we have sold only 400 tickets from 1000?

 

Was that only last season? Seems like years ago... Best bit was Chaddy replicating Liddel's "straight in from the corner" goal at half time! :lol:
