    the club have dropped a massive bollock with the prices, couple that with the disgraceful early season form and people just getting out of the habit of going becuase of the Category A game joke policy, hence the embarrasing gates.

    16 x Cat A games at Oakwell this season is proper taking the p*ss out of the supporters. Wait till the night games come when its howling with rain....

    Mr X are you Paul Hudson the weatherman !! Point taken but yo now what I mean !!

    Excellent performance today just needed that cutting edge in the final third Vaz Te should have been put on 15 minutes before but once we get Haynes and Davies back I'm sure the goals will come.....

    Slowly but surely I think we are getting there..........

    agreed, £30 is too expensive and most know it....... why the DUMB FCUKS who actually run club don't see it also, is the only mystery.

    OK, not all the 'extra' fans will be full price, but:

    8,800 - 7,500 ST's = 1,300 x 30 = 39,000
    9,200 - 7,500 ST's = 1,700 x 16 = 27,200

    So the club will feel vindicated!

    I agree with the point about folk getting out of the habit though.

    The £30 price tag is the problem. Try these figures:

    £20 x 1700 = £34000
    £23 x 1700 = £39000
    £25 x 1700 = £ 42500

    £30 is drive the fan base away.

    weve been spoilt a little iin last few seasons in the expectation of making progress

    16 x Cat A games at Oakwell this season is proper taking the p*ss out of the supporters. Wait till the night games come when its howling with rain....[/QUOTE]

    This season the objective has been modest from day 1 trying to play an improved passing style but no ambition to compete in the top half of the table.
