    Just got 2 tickets, agreed it's a right rip off but hey ho!!

    Southern softies, if they think we have a bad ground then they should have a look around league 1 & 2!! They would be a right average team/ground without Roman!!

    I can pass for under 18, seen as i'm only just 19, so i got a ticket for £18, but agreed, 26 quid to sit on scaffolding is ridiculous.

    I live and work amongst Blackpool fans. They are incensed by the prices which they have to pay (£29 for pay on the gate), and the equivalent of their supporters trust are encouraging visiting fans to complain to the FL.

    Preston fans will be boycotting their away fixture completely (a weekend in Blackpool holds no attraction for them!)

    It think it was £18 to get in last season, so an increase of 45%!!!!

    I read somewhere on the internet the other day, the reason the board have increased prices is that they lose too much money due to fewer away fans travelling during the colder months. This is due to the away stand having no roof, etc.

    Whilst I can understand they lose money, I would say the majority of clubs do and you don't see such drastic increases.

    Can you still stand on walls/garage roof and have a good view?

    I remember a gang a few seasons ago doing it.
