I hope nobody complains who pay £15 tomorrow for a friendly game I stated this morning I was driving through until the prices were revealed Anyone who pays that wants their head checking Even if I lived next door to ground I wouldn't pay that Home fans get free entry with a season ticket while Barnsley fans get ripped off Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I get where you're coming from, and I'm one of the first to complain about matchday ticket pricing, but I'll be at Guiseley tomorrow evening and I don't need my head checking. I think it's ridiculous of them to be charging away fans that, in friendlies. You'd have been looking at 500 of us there tomorrow at owt between £5 and £10 a pop. Now? Less than 100 I reckon. So they're losing coin really. But I don't think it's reight to be making folk who are going, feel like lepers for doing so. Because of work I can't always get to see my beloved reds. I'm off work Wednesday, Guiseley is a 15 minute train journey for me at £4 return. Never been before. After tomorrow I'll have worked 7 days straight and I feel like a few drinks and watching my club in what will feel like a home game for me. I'm looking forward to it.
A home game? Really? Only Oakwell could possibly ever feel like home. It is home. Oh and maybe Wembley. Wembley is like the friends house you go to where you call his mum your second mum. Then there's the Keepmoat. That's the annoying weird kid down the street. Close enough that they're always around but you never really enjoy their company. Eventually you move up in the world, they're left hanging with the other more obscure children. The Yeovils and Grimsby's. So yeah no matter how close a ground is to your house surely it never feels like home? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I get you live close but that doesnt change the fact you are willing to spend £15.00 entrance fee to a non league ground for a friendly game Its difficult then for you to moan about paying £30.00 at oakwell next season if thats what the prices come out as
I live close, the weather is good and I've had a rough day at work and could do with a relax. I just can't justify the £15. That might make me sound tight, but it's a present for one of my lads, or some clothes form them, or a nice tea out...the list goes on. I just can't see past a fiver for a fair deal. I've no problem with anyone going because, on the flip side, it is 'only' £15 to see the reds. It's just not for me. I buy a season ticket every year - I'm lucky I can just about afford one- I don't get to every game because of parents evenings and the like but even with the games I miss it makes good sense. 15 qwid doesn't.
