    So you'd be happy with a flat atmosphere and just the 8,000 season ticket holders in the stadium, so long as you don't have to sit next to someone who didn't go to the game before?

    That's a strange stance to take.

    I do think they missed a trick in not selling a package for all the final home games of the season.

    Morecambe was always going to look unattractive as a game realistically.

    I won’t be there myself, as mentioned elsewhere we are away this weekend (Mrs’ fault…) though my st and the two kids’ will be counted in the attendance anyway presumably.

    April is a busy month - can understand people picking and choosing especially after another rise in interest rates

    You'd have a lot of disgruntled people on your hands, as there's only 5 home League games remaining....

    EDIT - plus with all these and other offers throughout the season, it would be cheaper than buying a Season Ticket. Therefore denying the club vital funds in the off season

    Better to sell them than not surely? No matter what the discount?

    I'm surprised there wasn't a package made available for the last 5 games for £60/65. Hopefully still a decent atmosphere.

    If we're still in with a shout of top 2 by the Ipswich game, I'll be amazed if there's no promotion for the last two home games. Hopefully there'll still be a decent atmosphere on Saturday, even with less people.

    I am waiting for a decision from my son (first home game since pandemic, although he has seen more Away games than me this season) and grand daughter ( first ever game) on accompanying me to Oakwell on Saturday.

    I won't be coming because the match is on Satuday.

    Think its wise to stay away, I'm turning up to only my 3rd home game of the season following Lincoln and Bolton.....just saying......

    Also, I'll just add that the majority of Barnsley supporters, like with most teams, are not season ticket holders.

    Indeed, but wouldn't the ST holders be unhappy with all these discounts? Especially if the accumulated price was cheaper than a ST?
