    So a Cat A match in The Ponty will be 22 English pounds?

    Bargain. In my experience things tend to be cheaper when you buy them over the interweb.

    Is the booking fee per ticket of per transaction?

    fortunately it is per transaction

    There is a maximum of 10 tickets per customer though.

    And yes, almost every other company offers a discount for buying online because the overheads are much lower. You would think that barnsley would do the same to try to take some of the pressure off the box office staff and lower costs.

    Yes, but you've got to remember, we're the loyal fans and we're here for them to screw us for every last penny they can.

    It's not too unreasonable. If I drove to Oakwell to buy a ticket (round trip of 24 miles) I would save about £10.00

    No. A Mercedes 240. I believe with depreciation, servicing, tax and insurance, that is the correct figure for a two year old Merc. You don'y just caount the fuel as running costs.

    All that for a 24 mile round trip to get tickets. It's an expensive business innit.

    it's a wonder you ever take the car out of the garage if you think like that

    Does your tax rise then everytime you take the car out? I think I owe the government a few quid by now, i've only been paying a set rate every year (and yes i know about petrol)
