oldman Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 hasn't petrol prices got something to do with it? petrol to Huddersfield would cost approx £60 Coaches do about 2miles per litre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeylandLatic Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 thats the one i was on about, is it not £9 if you pay before the game ? I pay a tenner at the ticket office on the day of the game. It would be better if you could just use your NUS card on the gate though to be honest, you'd get far more casual fans in that way. The £13 they'd lose from the likes of me and you would quickly be made up by a bit of advertising at UoM and the met to get some students coming on one offs. If I didn't go to see Oldham (and didn't hate Leeds) i'd go there for a tenner every now and again for a football fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeylandLatic Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Wheres that Polish hippy prick who slagged us off on the Radio? Wonder if he'll boycott his own club due to categorisation of matches. Oh you mean PolishHypocrit, clues in the name. What an absolute c***.

SSH Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Oh you mean PolishHypocrit, clues in the name. What an absolute c***. He constantly complains about the categorisation of matches. I don't see what is wrong with it personally. He hasn't been on DATM for a long time, and I haven't heard about him for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forte_Baby Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 when was this ? Was on the jklatics board a few seasons back when the TTA put prices up so it cost more for away fans to get in than home fans. He claimed Hudds would boycott Oldham despite Swindon and Gillingham (where they take less than 400 to) charging more but us being local. He was a laugh for a while he threatened to complain to the football league when Huddersfield own fans wanted a league game switched because the rugby league team where in the challenge cup final.

He hasn't been on DATM for a long time, and I haven't heard about him for a long time. Exactly, he complains about it but he isn't going a one man crusade round every other clubs messageboards to boycott the Galpharm like he did with BP because it will harm his club. He's all for the 'good of the people' unless it directly impacts negatively on his own team. What a bell end. If he did that i wouldn't have any problem with him but his hypocrisy (and how oblivious he is to it, intentional or otherwise) really pisses me off! Glad he's finally shut and ****ed off.

Rick Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Would you go watch Oldham at home if we did a student deal? Do they do a NUS discount at the Georgian? E4E Tight arses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy_Fent Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I for one wouldnt mind catergorised ( if thats how you spell it, still in work im tired ! ) as it would most probably get the attendance up for the less atrractive games. CAT A = £22 Adults, £12 Kids Sheff Wednesday Huddersfield Rochdale Southampton Charlton CAT B = £18 Adults, £11 Kids Plymouth Carlilse Tranmere Notts County CAT C = £15 Adults, £9 Kids All The Rest i think thats pretty fair. it is a good idea in theory but the main hurdle with categorising is that you'll get supporters of the bigger clubs complaining, or you could get a situation like Preston when they made the game with Pompey Category A whilst both teams were in a poor run of form and they got lowest crowd for over a decade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see if both us and Mk Dons have something to play for on the last day of the season how many they fetch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK Dons took 348 to stockport when they had to win to confirm promotion to league 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but that was there first game of the season and if i am right there first ever league one game so there is bound to be a few extra fans come along.

Tommy_Fent Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 but the top prices i have stated are near enough the same as now. trust me they still complain, like when Huddersfield boycotted playing us it was because they paid £2 more to go in the Rochdale Road End Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
