No pay on the day I think they’ve dropped a bollock there!! I don’t. Gives us an idea of demand and how many will be in the stadium in advance. Also gives us the option to change it if uptake isn’t good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they would be the ones dropping the bollock then. The club has to be able to manage the situation because demand could be high.

Not got through the £5 million yet have we, I presume it's a goodwill gesture with the club hoping supporters will put their hands in their pockets for a worthy cause.

spanishfly Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Surely a full house at £1? That said, I was thinking of going in the Chaddy to remind me of my childhood but the site was only selling tickets in a couple of blocks near the Ford Stand so I went elsewhere. It's another generous gesture from the owner and will also help to boost his charity efforts via his boat challenge i.e. you pay a quid for your ticket and then have the option to make up the payment via a charity donation. So £1 for the game and the other £19 (what you'd normally pay for an early bird adult ticket) to the charity. Of course, you are not forced to add a charity donation. Good stuff all round and PLEASE players put in a fantastic showing in front of a packed stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really made clear on the official site Away supporters will be housed in the Main Stand Paddock (CRE side).

Obviously not everyone will turn up but should be 9k+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
