    Fantastic. I'm guessing we'll have a 10k+ crowd now, with all those who said they would only go if it was £10
    Excellent news :)

    We won't get five figures but this is quite a good ploy by the club. We know they want to be making more use of technology and in turn this will encourage fans to move forward that way too.

    Some might say what about 99 year old Harry getting a cheaper ticket, just maybe the box office lot would help him if he has no one else he can ask.

    Outrageous. It should be £9.50 and pay in a bucket outside the turnstiles. The Club have no idea. I'm out

    Nigel Hambleton 'What a disgrace should be same price weather bought online or at ticket office also on the day another missed opportunity to try n get young generation through turnstiles bfc have no idea when it comes to marketing'

    David Crossley 'Surely this penalises the "fans" who don't have internet access. Agreed missed opportunity to try and encourage the stay away fans to come back - and I include myself in that category'

    Not sure why you've blocked the names out, they're publicly on Facebook for everyone to see.

    Chuckle. You have to laugh. Stay away fans, who don't have internet access. Posting on Facebook. Brilliant

    To be fair, why isn't it a tenner for all advance purchases ?

    I like that price. Very much appreciated BFC. I would imagine the low prices are only on the web to get people used to using it. Seems like a good idea to me.

    Yeah but not everyone has the internet. In particular, those who go on internet forums to complain about it
