    Went down to club this morning and apart from activity outside regarding the TV people ,it seemed very quiet in the club shop. I thought it would have been rather busy tbh.
    Maybe everybody got tickets before or going later but I hope the TV cameras haven't put a lot off as they're gonna miss a great atmosphere because the pre match celebrations won't be shown on sky.
    Incidentally anyone recording sky coverage of game from start to finish ,?
    Wouldn't mind a cd of pre,Halftime and analysis comments worth a few quid

    I'm not surprised there isn't much activity at £32. The flexi-ticket was introduced last season to help home supporters afford high category games. No sign of it so far this season.

    They'd never do it this early as it would become an alternative to an ST which are obviously the lifeblood of the club.

    It should be a ticketing option all season. There's a lot of people who don't go to enough games to buy a season ticket. i don't believe either that anyone would buy a 5 match flexi-ticket instead of a season ticket. The two tickets appeal to different customer groups.

    I did exactly that last season. I went to individual home matches and paid on the day, and I bought a flexi ticket and tried to use it for the high cost matches. I thought (wrongly) that I couldn't justify a season ticket as I was away too often.

    At the end of the season I did the maths and realised that if I go to about half the matches a season ticket would just about break even, depending on the categories etc, so I've got one this season. It also has the added advantages for Oakwell South trips etc.

    I can get to between 5 and 10 games per season. A £300 season ticket would therefore make the cost AT LEAST £30 per game.

    I got st's for me and the lad this season. Can't get to all due to work, but with his being free, mine £320, I'll break even before ten games I reckon.

    Missed two already as I was on holiday

    Season tickets work for some and don't for others. We know that. There should be a range of tickets for all circumstances, so no-one is priced out.
