    If the club announced that admittance to remaining home games was free would we see a full stadium?
    Highly unlikely??

    We still wouldnt fill I agree. But would love to hear the moaning still.

    Three home games for free a bit too generous. As a ST holder and it costs me about £14 a game I would be content if was say £25-30 offer.

    While that would mean cheaper per game than I pay it's only for 3 games not 23.

    No, but what you will get is. The season ticket holder’s up in arms. :nails: it would be financial suicide, with the price of stewarding the extra people.

    What about, if you buy a shirt at 40 notes, you get a couple of match tickets with it, would that be worth it or not? Be nice to get some more shirts around the town, and we'll probably be selling them for 20 quid in a month or so anyway to get shut of the old stock.

    Most of the money on the shirt sales goes to Nike so it would still be like giving the tickets away for nowt more or less.

    Its far too late in the day IMO.
    The club kept the ridiculous prices during our top half of the table form, and put off a lot of fans who were perhaps tempted to come back and see what the fuss was about.
    We then lost our creative players, slumped dramatically as per every season, and the fans that may have once fancied returning didnt bother with the reduced ticket prices.
    The club ****** up majorly last summer, and if this years increased ST prices are anything to go by then I wouldnt expect a reduction in POTD pricing. Especially if 2 of the 3 Yorkshire clubs come up - CAT A heaven for Dapper Don
