    Surely the team deserve to be getting 10k plus home fans now.We're at the business end of the season now.The lift from the crowd could prove vital.

    wish the club would do a promotion push promotion, get the money in and if it all goes flat ,the club as the money in the bank ,if we carry on and look like getting promotion then its win ,win because any more fans who come down will boost coffers at full price 6 home games left, do an offer 6 for 80 quid and a kids one for a tenner if bought with adult

    I'm hoping to go. Though I can't depend on mates for help. Amazing how quick the good will runs out when you've been seriously badly. Taxis there and back, £50+ day out! Hope I don't jinx us. :)

    I should imagine they will be 10k home fans Saturday for another 6 pointer

    Same as usual. The fair weathers will pay to go to Wembley, bur won't go down the road to Oakwell and support us on this important run-in.

    It's about time we had some fans come and see for themselves how we're playing without the need for special offers as the main reason. I do think the Chesterfield game could be an offer but we have a couple of games before then, especially Easter Friday that deserve a big crowd.

    I can go to 4 of the 6 remaining home games, but will only be able to afford to go to 2 of them at £23.

    If they do an offer, it will no doubt be one of the 2 Tuesday games that I can't go to.

    will be around the 10k mark. i don't agree with any promotions that cost the club financially, just to get a handful of people in who won't return after they've had their cheap game.

    If the fans can't be bothered to turn up now after the run we are on then the club are fighting a losing battle with promotions

    It's not a case of people not being arsed. It works out bloody expensive when you haven't got a season ticket. In case anyone throws Wembley at me, it's costing me £28 all in. A category 5 ticket + free travel + a bag of home prepared scran.

    Hi mate I live in Wombwell. If you need a ride from home and back to matches I can do that (well ar lass can as I usually have a drink or three). Southend is out as I'm coming up from London on train but rest of season should be fine. You will have to put up with brother though which is scary enough.

    Games aren't free - £25 a match just isn't an option for quite a lot of people.

    I'll bear it in mind mate, thanks. I have to go door to door more or less and leave out the pub. :(

    Doesn't discounting season tickets cost the club financially. Some people aren't in a financial position that they can buy a season ticket. Some people aren't in a financial position to pay 20 odd quid a game. It just seems a bit churlish to have this sod you attitude.

    Yes, the authentic version. Though I tend to leave out the Rotherham bit.

    No chance they will do an offer that's cheaper than season pass holders pay and nor should they. Should do the last three home games for fifty quid though and there is plenty of time to get it sorted. Can also make a catergory for those fans for play off tickets if we make it. Season pass holders, centenery members and offer holders before general sale.
