    It's shitty that they get to charge our fans £20 a ticket when they are only having to pay at Oakwell £15 it should be fixed for both teams.

    ffs, some people will moan about anything. It's potentially 4000 x £15 for our coffers, seats that would otherwise be empty.

    Yet the consensus on their forum is that they won't fetch much more than 2 000..

    Personally doubt they'll bring many more than 2500.

    I'd let them have 15,000 if they could sell them and we could fit them in. We would make a fortune from them, and we play better when outnumbered fan-wise anyway.

    What I meant is it should be £15 for both teams fans.

    They have sold their initial 2000 and asked for 2000 more. I can't see the problem. And why is stadium size an issue? Not either clubs fault. I hope it's a cracking atmosphere on Saturday.

    It's £20 for our fans if you don't purchase a ticket in advance.

    In practice it hardly makes any difference, since the play-off gate receipts for all 4 clubs are shared equally.

    Well, it makes a difference to the fans, paying different prices, but not to the club.

    Also not serving them beer at half time. That'll be good old SYP denting our revenue on top of OTT policing costs no doubt

    is that due to SYP though, or our inability to serve more then 3 people an hour?

    Haha reckon it's SYP as they did that to us at Bramall Lane. Good point though, lost revenue equal to £6.50!!

    No lost revenue to BFC, the catering is outsourced so they make the money having paid BFC a flat fee.

    But the value of the contract is less when it comes to renewal
