    As in, will you attend less, stop buying a season ticket etc?

    I think I'll attend more away days, and the same amount of home games. Be nice to tick a few grounds off that I've never been to. Although I'm still of the belief that we'll stay up, based on the fact that we usually do. :)

    Depends on a lot of things.

    Who the manager is and if we are winning.
    Also when games are.
    I'm not the best going away on a Tuesday night.

    Be nice to go to grounds like S****horpe and and Rochdale

    Don't get to as many games as I'd like. Although I'd try and get to more away games with it being cheaper. If we did go down, I'd probably go to more away games than home games.

    Know that won't go down well on here but honesty is the best policy :).

    I will still get a season ticket, its just what I do on a Saturday. This season has been a huge disappointment and my resolve is being tested to breaking point but once the season finishes and the dust settles the pain will become a distant memory and the urge to sign up for another season of **** will be too strong to resist.

    Nope. If I can put up with home defeats to the likes of Barrow, Halifax Town, Workington & Southport, I can put up with watching Barnsley play in Division 1. :D

    For me it's nothing to do with the division we are in, more to do with football itself. The thread about Leicester and their finances says it all. While ever football is like that, I will find better things to do with my dosh. After 46 years I've very nearly had enough.

    Not in the slightest....still get my ST and still do around 10-12 away games. When I was 6 I signed up for lifetime to watch Barnsley and that still remains!

    Anyhow who's getting relegated???

    Away games - pretty much same as, just a couple.

    Home games - I'll buy a season ticket.

    So no, won't affect my support at all. If we carry on losing like we do in this division I'll be a lot more grumpy though.

    Can't be arsed to research it...but I'd be surprised if that many teams in the third division, charge a great deal less than £23...

    Exactly how I feel. If all the clubs start the season on an even financial footing regardless of which division they're in I'll get a ST.
